Back to EpisodesDoes sex on TV and in movies really sell?
Description
Think young people want sex and romance in their TV shows or movies? Think again. At least that’s what a recent study from UCLA’s Center for Scholars & Storytellers found. More than half of adolescents ages 13-24 surveyed said they want to see an increase in themes about friendship and platonic relationships, while nearly 45% felt sex is an unnecessary part of TV and movie plots. Dr. Kathleen Bogle, Professor of Sociology and Criminal Justice at La Salle University, takes a closer look at UCLA’s data, and discusses whether or not it could ultimately move the needle in Hollywood.
