Documentaries on the Sexualization of Girls: Examining Slut-shaming, Victim-blaming and What’s Being Left Off-screen

Abstract

There is a robust public debate about the effects of a sex-saturated culture on youth. Experts appear in books, magazines, newspapers, blogs and documentaries to warn of the potential negative impact of an increasingly sexualized environment on young girls in particular. The pervasiveness of sexual content available through the Internet, combined with the marketing of sexual products to younger and younger audiences, have resulted in a public outcry for something official to be done. Within the academy, for instance, the American Psychological Association formed a Task Force on the Sexualization of Girls in response to these expressions of public concern (APA, 2010). These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
