My IP Thesis

Thesis: Early onset of sexual activity is a result of explicit sexual exposure in movies.

Here are the problems I'm currently facing- How do I define "early onset of sexual activity?" By that I mean, what standard do I set to represent that which is early (or too young) to be having sex? Also- Should I expand and talk about how both movies and perhaps one other form of media influence adolescent sexual activity?

  1. You could possibly focus on pre-marital sex, because that's a lot more measurable. And I think that music also plays a big role in early sexual activity, so that's another thing you could talk about. I figure at this point you would probably need another media influence to make it 10 pages worth!

  2. I'd say television for the third form of media. I think the change of "early onset of sexual activity" to "pre-marital sex" is a great idea.

  3. Television would be a great one! For example, Gossip Girl and many other shows!

  4. Thanks guys, I appreciate your guy's help. I think I'll gear my paper towards premarital sex as well as the correlation of early onset sexual activity based upon movies and television media.
