Research and Exploration 2/ Marqui Mckenzie

1. The sex in the media affects mostly affects children. One way to find research on how this affects children is to ask them on their opinion. For those that may be too young to understand, we should explain to them just how sex in media can affect them and their peers. This can work like an interview.
2. Like many others, I've been exposed to sex and media at an early age. Being older, I know better but sex and media, for a time, did affect my opinion and looks on things such as sex and promiscuity. Also, my baby cousin is starting to be exposed by this because of the music she listens to and the things she says.

4. I heard that sex in the media is affecting the increase in teen pregnancies. It's also not advocating safe sex which causes an increase.
