  • An Uncensored Introduction
    Nikol Nikol Hasler Hasler AN UNCENSORED INTRODUCTION & & AN UNCENSORED INTRODUCTION by Nikol Hasler with illustrations by Michael Capozzola ZEST BOOKS San Francisco AUTHOR ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would never have been able to compile the accurate and useful information found in this book without the support of Cory Silverberg, Heather Corrina, Judith Steinhart, Dr. Jeffrery Klausner, Morty Diamond, Tristan Toramino, and Miriam Kaufman. These people took time out of their busy sexual educa- tion lives to answer every question I had and are pioneers in the world of sexual information. Through the process they made sure my email inbox stayed interesting with subject lines like “penis queries” and “condoms in butts.” I also want to thank Zest Books publisher Hallie Warshaw for deciding that it was important to write a book like this one and editorial director Karen Macklin for being patient with me during every step of the process. Also thanks to Zest’s research editor Nikki Roddy, who spent an awful lot of time looking at lengthy documents and pie charts on everything from bodily fluids to penis sizes. Most important, I want to thank my sons for interrupting me every now and then to show me that a good hour of silly dancing in the kitchen can be an excellent cure for just about anything. —NIKOL HASLER This is a revised and expanded edition of Sex: A Book for Teens (Zest Books, 2010). This new edition includes an additional chapter on the topic of online sex and safety, along with updated informa- tion about new legislation, medical discoveries, and cultural shifts — especially on the topic of transgender issues.

  • Measuring the Effects of Sexual Content in the Media
    MEASURING THE EFFECTS OF SEXUAL CONTENT IN THE MEDIA: A Report to the Kaiser Family Foundation By: Aletha C. Huston, Ph.D. Ellen Wartella, Ph.D. Edward Donnerstein, Ph.D. With the assistance of Ronda Scantlin and Jennifer Kotler A Word from the Kaiser Family Foundation Anyone who watches television, goes to the movies, or picks up a magazine today knows sex is prominent across all media. Research has shown that some media do incorporate prosocial messages about sex and sexual issues, like the risks and consequences of unprotected sex, but most do not. These messages, whether incorporating positive or negative themes, are seen by many people today, and raise legitimate questions about what effect they have on influencing the behaviors and attitudes of young viewers. Many parents say conversations with their children about sensitive topics like teen pregnancy or AIDS have been sparked by something they saw on television. And, in fact teens say that some media are important resources for them about sexual health issues. On the other hand, some young people say that sexual messages on television and in movies influence teens in a negative way, and many adults also worry about this. While there has been a great deal of research on the impact of violence in media, there has been almost no research on the impact of sexual portrayals. On the other hand, there is no shortage of opinions about the effect of sexual content on TV, ranging from “it just goes over their heads” to “it causes teen pregnancy.” It is especially important to learn, through empirical research, not only which kinds of depictions might have a negative impact on young viewers, but also how the media can provide positive models of behavior.

  • Further Reading ​
    Appendix A— Further Reading ​ The list below is not comprehensive, but includes resources I have come across during the research period for this book. I have divided the list by topic. Body Image Resources about boys and body image are few and far between, although the few I have listed here are very helpful. Books Pope, Harrison et al. The Adonis Complex: How to Identify, Treat, and Prevent Body Obsession ​ in Men and Boys. New York: Touchstone, 2000. ​ The Adonis Complex offers a detailed look at body image issues among boys and men, with a focus on ​ how body dissatisfaction has increased among males since the 1980s. There is a chapter dedicated to boys that talks about the extent of body image problems and the use of steroids and supplements. Although a little older than some of the resources I’ve listed here, this book is still an excellent resource for parents. Warhaft-Nadler, Marci. The Body Image Survival Guide for Parents: Helping Toddlers, Tweens, ​ ​ ​ and Teens Thrive. Lemont, PA: Eifrig Publishing, 2013. ​ I have known the author of The Body Image Survival Guide for a number of years. I recommend her ​ ​ book not because of a personal connection but because she offers solid, usable advice on body image issues. She also includes a chapter on boys’ concerns with body image, a topic that is becoming better known but is still not discussed enough. Ms. Warhaft-Nadler also maintains a very active presence on social media where she highlights current news and information about body image.

  • Examples of Sexually Charged Teen and Young Adult Literature
    Examples of Sexually Charged Teen and Young Adult Literature Parents who opt their children (experimental subjects) out of “sex education” as such have to worry not only about their children being exposed to sexualized materials in “STD prevention” or “bully prevention” lessons, but throughout the school day as sexualized books are becoming increasingly prevalent in school and public libraries and on recommended reading lists. Subverting the “opt-out” parental protective provision is a strategy undertaken by the overwhelming GLBTQ novels awaiting the child in the school library and by the inclusion of GLBTQ messages thorough the entire school curriculum: math, English, history, geography, physical education, heath and AIDS prevention, anti-bullying education, etc. Placing sexually explicit material in the context of literature is a particularly insidious assault on young brains, as researchers at Emory University have detected what may be biological traces that demonstrate what readers have long experienced, i.e., that stories can help define a person, for good or ill. 1 The researchers found actual changes in the brain that linger, at least for a few days, after reading a novel.2 Their findings, that reading a novel may cause persistent changes in resting-state connectivity of the brain, were published by the journal Brain Connectivity.3 We all “knew” this from our own lives. “Stories shape our lives and in some cases help define a person,” says neuroscientist Gregory Berns, lead author of the study and the director of Emory’s Center for Neuropolicy: We want to understand how stories get into your brain, and what they do to it .

  • Young Adults' Views on Telemedicine Consultations for Sexual Health in Australia
    Young Adults’ Views on Telemedicine Consultations for Sexual Health in Australia Cameryn Claire Garrett Submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Women’s Health, Gender and Society School of Population Health The University of Melbourne January 2012 ABSTRACT Background Young people have high rates of sexually transmissible infections and face barriers to accessing sexual health services. It had been suggested that telemedicine could overcome these barriers. Method Two investigations were conducted: SHOUT: Young people’s (aged 16-24) pre-use views on telemedicine consultations for sexual health were investigated through a national online questionnaire in Australia. TESTme: Clients’ and key informants’ views on a year-long piloted telemedicine sexual health service, which offered telephone and webcam consultations, were examined through a questionnaire and interviews. Results SHOUT: 662 questionnaires were completed. If living close to a doctor, most young people prefer to have a sexual health consultation in person. If distance is a barrier, the majority prefer a telephone consultation. 23% were willing to have a webcam consultation with a known doctor (unknown doctor: 21%). If a genital examination was necessary, an in-person consultation was preferred. Men were more willing than women to have a webcam sexual health consultation. The main concerns about webcam consultations in the free text responses involved privacy and security, relating to the possibility of webcam consultations being recorded, saved, and potentially searchable and retrievable by others online. Reasons for and implications of these concerns for digital medical consultations are discussed, drawing on the theories of Boyd, Meyrowitz, and Nissenbaum.
