Research on the Influence of Sex Scenes on Teenagers

Teen pregnancies in the U.S. carry risks to the mother as well as their infants. There are a variety of factors that lead to teen pregnancy, and advertising scenes of teens' sex-related behaviors without pinpointing their risks is one of those factors. In the study, in order to see if there would be a correlation between sexual content in movies and teens' sexual drives, data from 100 people was collected. As a consequence, the results showed that the majority of teenagers were prone to develop sex drives after watching sex-related movies and they reported most of those movies did not emphasize the severity of being pregnant as teenagers. These conclusion illuminated that abundant sex scenes in the media can lead to an elevation of sex drives on teenagers, which might eventually cause a rising teen pregnancy rate. At the end, several suggestions and recommendations that could help lower the teen pregnancy rate were proffered.
