Racy television shows may promote teenage sexual behavior. From the story:
Exposure to some forms of entertainment is a corrupting influence on children, leading teens who watch sexy programs into early pregnancies and children who play violent video games to adopt aggressive behavior, researchers said on Monday.
Researchers at the RAND research organization said their three-year study was the first to link viewing of racy television programing with risky sexual behavior by teens. “Our findings suggest that television may play a significant role in the high rates of teenage pregnancy in the United States,” said Anita Chandra, a behavioral scientist who led the research at RAND, a nonprofit research organization.
This takes a study to figure out? I was a teenager once. I remember quite well that exposure to raciness increased feelings of randiness. Today, it is even worse for the kids because their role models denigrate by their examples the very concept of self restraint.
