Representations Of Virginity In The Media, Dakota Murray

Sociology Student Work Collection

This presentation focuses on representations of Virginity in media. Specifically, it uses the three virginity scripts presented within Kelly's Virginity Loss Narratives in ‘‘Teen Drama’’ Television Programs. This includes virginity as a gift, virginity as a rite of passage, and virginity as a stigma. This is supported with the inclusion of various prominent movie and television examples.
