Teen Girls & Sex

Season 5

How does sexual content in the media affect the development of pre-teenage girls?

A special report on the sexual pressures on pre-teenage girls. Parents, social critics, and many young girls themselves deplore it, but sex sells, so advertisers and entertainers use it to attract audiences. And they use it without the regulation or social pressures that once were restraining forces, although most Americans oppose outright censorship.
