Permissiveness emerging for adults and implications for adolescent sexuality
Introduction
Searching for information is growing and the importance of the media as a supplier and distributor of information to large populations can not not be overestimated. The media are recognized as a powerful tool that is indispensable and able to show objective and balanced information that can form the opinion public and strengthen the structural changes in human behavior. However, their functions are more disturbing and little-known especially in the area of sexuality. There now raging controversy surrounding the way sexuality is portrayed in the media about how the media tend to reinforce stereotypes and coverage sexual issues (Tiemoko, 2006. p.6-10) and measurement of religious silence on these media activities.
Today, a publication can be considered incomplete without a scantily clad girl or the presentation of the numbers of sex (Suzanne, et al (2006). preponderance of attractive sexual scenes information entertainment becomes special called fear and concern at this time that most young people are the closest to the media, especially media such as visual (television, video, etc). The effects of uncontrolled and illegal immigration consequences without education, sexual behavior, that HIV / AIDS, unwanted or unintended pregnancies, school dropout, unemployment, poverty, crime and, in general, economic development can not be overestimated. Therefore, the need for a proper assessment to identify and filter out erroneous information and information sources on the lives of these teens who supposed to be the future leaders of our society.
Regulation of sexual behavior to be the general concern of many religious groups at all times and in all contexts. But the degree to which a religious group can control the behavior of the sex of their congregation or society depends on whether religion is the world of rejection, in its response the prevalence of social values or has been made to indicate global (Ojo, 2007). The part where religion belongs determines the point of view of sexuality and its response to the company in which it operates.
While some evangelical groups have succeeded in the approach of conservative sexual behavior, many have been away from conservatism traditional religious. The Oneida community in New York in the mid eighteenth century, practiced free love and women with a common structure of a single family and practice Mormon polygamy a way that the coupling encouraged to fill the world with pious children (Foster, 1994). Emmanuel also Odumosu, the Jesus of Oyingbo saga in Maryland Lagos is another example of the sexual privileges held by women members and women. A number of initiatives promoting sexual freedom in Christianity today, with effect yet unknown about the new generation of teenagers among whom are the new world of the recent ordination of homosexuals to homosexuals as priests and bishops sect in England. All these are pointers to sexual freedom is allowed by the Church. The way that allows religious groups in Christianity, in particular, says nothing on adult entertainment and all its associated factor influencing sexuality raises questions about moral responsibility of the churches in sexual and also raises the question new prospects for the company responsible sexuality.
According to Monroy de Velasco (1982) developing countries have more than one billion adolescents who are physically old enough to breed but are too young to be responsible for the health of children of healthy parents (Monroy de Velasco, 1982). This statement can not ignore the lack of vital information in homes sexuality and young people have uncontrolled access most of the censored scenes. children uninformed procreativity especially in areas could lead to irresponsible parents adult material adverse effect on his brothers and sisters and the cycle can continue if nothing is done to save the situation. Thus, this research has been created to break the cycle of misinformation and misconceptions about adult entertainment in our society.
The globalization of Western culture, but with a positive trend in economic development, has led to the infiltration of this system tissue culture in Nigeria with a (dominant visible Rodney, 1976). This is more pronounced in certain lifestyles, such as dressing, talking, work ethic, the way entertainment and views on sexuality. A source of entertainment for adults is Swivel, driven by the media. Fun for adults includes all activities where women mainly in sexual acts for payment that included all sex shows, live sex – tower and pole dancing, sports bars, strippers, saunas (with supplements), prostitution. It also includes "The pay per view access to the Internet and TV / DVD online pornography, phone sex, sex shops, etc. (YWCA, 2006). Nothing is gained by saying that these activities have been introduced in the Nigerian society and remained until the expiration date, among other things, the desire for Westernization.
In all areas of life, sexuality is seen as especially vital and indispensable in the religious field, where traditionally supposed to be a blessing to express the love and life and production for the company and mutual pleasure, but also plagued by abuse, exploitation, abuse and suffering (RAND Health, 2007). This means that issues of sexuality have wisdom must begin to develop from childhood. To the extent that it is vital for young people to express their sexuality, including sources is essential that such information must be impartial, free of misunderstandings and completely controlled by the elders and parents. Thus, this study has been carried out to examine the effect of adult entertainment to assess their level of contamination and its potential size in terms of influence on adolescent sexual behavior.
verifiable propositions have been raised about whether adult entertainment has a detrimental effect on young adolescent sexuality in order to confirm the parenting style in Nigeria as a stimulus for access to obscene material and to test whether sex education can serve as a substitute for adult entertainment in life adolescent sexual.
It was a priori that the study will help provide a solution to the opposite sex and inadequate information from exposure adult entertainment for young adolescents. It is conceivable that adult entertainment implant false ideas about sexuality in young people and carry out demonstration These erroneous and inappropriate sexual activities that can lead to inadvertent unimaginable crimes as teen parenting, abortion, masturbation, rape, exhibitionism, voyeurism, to name a few. This pilot study, however, lay the groundwork for a larger study of other generalizations can be made
Review of literature
and sexual development in adolescence
According to Dehart, Sroufe & Cooper (2004), adolescence can be considered as a second revolution in human development, the first occurrence during the period a child when a child is born a baby. During adolescence, a child becomes a young adult and qualitative progress may be visible in all areas of development, including physical changes. As children lose their original form child, so do the eyes of young children. Not only are more larger and heavier and stronger, but his body change the proportions of secondary sexual characteristics develop. For men this includes the extension of the shoulders, enlargement of the unit genitals, and hair growth in different parts of the body. For women involves widening of the hips, breast development, and growth pubic hair and armpits. Both sexes of course, acquire the ability to reproduce.
Teenagers develop a much more autonomy, which explains why the theory of psychoanalysis to refer to adolescence as a second individuation. The first individuation in child hood, when children come to understand the separation of parents base (Dehart et al, 2004). In adolescence, the process of individuation is pushed much further. Now young people come to understand their inner feelings that parents can not even do not know. Along with this individuation is that parents deidentification (Dehart et al, 2004). Teenagers are moving toward their own ideals, goals and values, their unique characters. They are establishing a sense of personal identity, knowledge of which are separated from their parents, and what is its place in the world.
Most adolescents do not receive any information on reproduction or the biological parents. It was established that the level of discussion about sexuality between children and their parents is based on the quality of the relationship they have with them (Papini, et al, 1998) and level of autonomy and individuation-esteem (and Papini, 1998). This last point suggests that young adolescents in particular, do not make their sexual problems with parents who are still in the early stages of the process of individuation. For this reason, they tend to rely on other sources of information about their sexuality.
Dirt and sexual behavior
There is widespread belief that a relationship an issue of causality between increased Obscenity and the increase in juvenile crime rates. Observations show that most children enjoy watching television in infancy, the main cause of concern among parents about their negative effects. For preschoolers, the modern American television now fulfills the role his grandfather, said it carried out in a less hectic time a fun —- the baby-sitter. Children who watch television an average of two to three hours per day (Himmelweit et al, 1958). Many even consider the evening programs. Nielsen ratings show that an audience of 100 to 10 pm, eight teenagers and children six, as late as 23:30, five teenagers and their three children are still in the public (New York Times, 1960) Other media are pale in importance compared with television. Radio as a source of entertainment has been largely supplanted by the new medium, it is in places where television can not reach the radio listening is widespread. Comic books only begin to compete with television for the best interests of the child. A research team revealed that 83 percent of children in their sample, less than 11 years, and 50 percent of those between 11 and 17 read more than two comics a week (Lazarsfeld et al 1948-9).
Religion and adult entertainment
A key feature adult entertainment is rare nudity and dressing and the two traits can be used interchangeably to describe entertainment for adults as shown by the media. He has eaten deep into the fabric of modern society and is a common way of life for most teenagers. pornography itself connote any material represents or describes the human body or sexual conduct in a way that arouses feelings Sex. It is distributed through many media, including magazines, books, television, movies, music and Internet. It is also harmful in mind that the snuff, alcohol and drugs to the body
In the recent past, relaxation was used in clothing obviously not as rampant as today's experience, especially for girls in Nigeria. The sanctity of good dressing has always adhered few years. Until far, dressings has been regarded as a moral standard socio-cultural and natural that you do not need instructions or advice before it is followed by all men and women. It is normal girls to dress appropriately in a way that represents the dignity and respect for womanhood. Today, the event was canceled and replaced by the usual manifestly Obscene half of nudity and nakedness. Although the phenomenon was seen coming from a single culture or new cultural imposition of the Western world, it is surprising that it is too common and show "reserved places called" concern. Moreover, the fact that the corresponding category falls within specific age groups and especially among younger girls young adolescent development are concerns you might have concrete effects on the future development of these groups and maybe a missile at the expense of the lives of teens who are most vulnerable group.
Religiously, clothing should be considered as an invitation to virtue rather than an incentive to sin. It is therefore surprising to see different things around the world today. The purpose of clothing was lost in society today and behavior apparent overlap in the past has permeated all corners of the religious centers, especially the church. But while some clergy and religious houses frown at this, this trend is more punishment for omission or commission, and is now looking to be almost commonplace in parts of the human body system, wearing habits some teenagers and even adults.
The central tenet of traditional Christian view on sexuality was chastity. This leads to the morality of abstinence premarital sex, boy-girl relationship healthy and value of virginity. However, the observed permissiveness without control in relation to the principle "of promiscuity in some places far referred calls of concern, which was, inter alia, the prevention of ordinary observers in the classification of the churches, sexuality is for health to combat healthy sexuality.
Pornography
There is a world of difference between pornography and obscenity, regardless of the form and manner they are used interchangeably. While pornography is to movies, photos, magazines, etc. that are or contain activities sexual or information that are intended to make people sexually excited, refers to obscenity and pornography criminal acts influenced by languages (Macmillan English Dictionary, 2006). According to the Encyclopedia of Ethics, defines pornography as "sexually explicit representation of people, words or images, created with the main objective of the proximity, and reasonable hope, to cause sexual excitement of consumers significantly of these materials. (VanDeBeer 1992, 991). However, although illegal, erotic arousal caused can not easily determine where it will eventually transform and manifests itself in sexual evil. This therefore calls for serious concern, because over time will grow and be a social problem that portends a great danger to traffic economy like Nigeria.
The question of how pornography affects behavior and attitudes of the man was a source of controversy and public concern. vehement opposition to pornography are based on fact that it promotes immorality, sexual violence and negative attitudes towards women, despite the support it has won the diversion harmless can be used to relieve sexual tension adult. In 1986, U.S. Attorney General's Commission on Pornography came to the conclusion that violent pornography "has a causal relationship to antisocial acts of sexual violence and degrading pornography" has a causal relationship "to violence, sexual assault, and negative attitudes, as the myth that women enjoy rape. Studies indicate that men who have seen movies that were recorded violent and sexually explicit higher levels of aggression, followed by those who were sexually explicit but non-violent movies. men recorded the highest level of aggression after viewing pornography that portrays women as sexually aroused by the violence perpetrated against them. According to researchers Edward Donnerstein, Daniel Lenz, and Steven Penrod, "It is this unique feature of pornography Violent presentation of the idea that women are sexual violence, raises it plays an important role in producing the effects of violent pornography. "However, studies have shown little correlation between the purely non-violent erotic films and violence or aggression against women (Downs, 2007).
Culture theory
culture theory suggests that frequent screen increases the probability of adoption of these values and beliefs expressed to modify behavior real (Brown, 1993; Brown, al, 1995, Gerbner, et al, 1986). When applied to television consumption among adolescents, this implies that higher rates could listen bring major changes in values, beliefs and behaviors that result. In this context, greater exposure to sexual content could lead to greater acceptance of gender stereotypes (Walsh-Childers, et al, 1993). However, other evidence suggests that exposure to media content is not equivalent to providing attention to the content (Ward and Rivadeneyra, 1999), especially in an adolescent population where the consumption of multiple media are common events Background TV with other activities such as homework or eating. However, Grube and Wallack (1994) assumed the level of attention and emotional response given to the television advertising alcohol may mediate the influence of a message and the degree of identification with the communicator.
The theory supports the hypothesis that the constant adolescents' exposure to adult entertainment such as pornography and would eventually lead to the adoption of such practices and cultivate habits. This can lead to lower and vice crimes such as rape, masturbation, prostitution and so on. It therefore follows that the theory of adult entertainment (Who is for adults for that matter) could have adverse effects on sexual behavior of young adolescents. As such, fun is not intended for consumption by persons of their age. Moreover, a study Brumer Healy and above it was concluded that criminals were more frequent among fans the movies that others do not have (and Healy, 1936), a finding that was confirmed also by Glueck (Glueck and Glueck, 1950). It is not unlikely that they have established a relationship causal link between watching movies and juvenile delinquency, we can assume that a person who attends the movies more often, would probably have more calls children are not criminals for interesting articles.
Research design
Technical research per survey was used in the study that was conducted in Lagos State of Nigeria and the study population consists of adolescents who are 12 years to 24 years. Both Gender refers to the determination of the different perspectives of both sexes on the subject and provide an opportunity to assess the influence of the variable in all categories adolescents.
Even if a systematic sampling technique was used in the selection of respondents who were teenagers in the study area, the choice of study areas is very subjective. The prevalence of constant supply of electricity and other social services are considered as key determinants media access to view or read the documents related to adult entertainment. Thus, the Ikeja district resident (GRA), a part of Oshodi and Yaba were elected. In this area, simple random sampling method and primary health care (PHC) house numbering guided the choice of people who were interviewed in face to face approach. Only 10 houses have been selected in each of the four areas selected in each census tract. In total, 114 questionnaires were processed within 120 reviewers through well-structured questionnaires. Two separate focus groups (FGD) were conducted in the area to get more results and confirmation Interview results
Data Analysis
Distribution data were used to assess the socio-demographic and interdependent association between the variables identified and the indulgence of adult entertainment. The data were analyzed with SPSS. The frequency distribution, cross-tabulations and regression techniques were used and the empirical results presented in tabular form. Hypotheses were tested using chi square (X2) method of analysis, a significance level of 5%, and the degrees of freedom. All tables are attached to this document.
Results and discussion
This section focuses on the discussion of test results data. Several tests-cons have also been identified as factors responsible for encouraging teenagers to participate in adult entertainment.
The demographic characteristics of respondents
Nigeria sex ratio has been deliberately used in the allocation of quotas for both sexes and about 51 men and 63 women were selected as sample of our total. The study revealed that an overwhelming proportion (72%) of respondent's parents living together at the time of the survey (82%), while about 10% of all households were divorced (Table 1). This implies that most respondents consider stable housing can provide information about sexuality. The level of relationship within the family is below the average (32%), approximately 11% is to distant parents, while almost 48% held close ties with parents only by economic necessity. The "Fathers and Sons" Report "is much less average in the study area. This may be influenced by the nature of working in the environment in which many parents must leave home early and return late night. This situation does not seem conducive to an intimate relationship or parental care, except holidays. also the study area belong to social classes high, when most trusted child care at the hands of the nurse, the daughter of the house / Child or in some cases, grandmothers.
Communication sexuality is relatively absent in Nigeria or perhaps especially below expectations among those studied. It is expected that more educated parents would always be able to communicate properly to their children about an issue, but the study found the opposite. Only a quarter of respondents had received information from the parents of his sexuality. Approximately the same number (25%) on it continuously, whereas only 28% had never discussed with their parents (Table 1). Among those who have received enlightenment only 14.9% of all respondents are free to discuss any sensitive issue at home with their parents. Most respondents are not authorized or to be free to discuss sexual matters with them or stay with their parents. However, approximately 48 (ie 42, 1%) of respondents currently in an intimate sexual relationship. About 18 (15.8%) experienced a broken relationship with his tender age (Table 1).
Teens media and adult entertainment
Although information about sexuality not found in most households, many parents have consented (License per print) sex between boys and girls and other girls and boys respectively. This is the parent who, directly or indirectly approved relations Social contacts between their daughters / sons and other children. About 35.1% of respondents answered "yes" to the question: Do you educate parents about their relationship with her boyfriend (s) friend (s)? About 11% never dare to let their parents know of the relations of this type (Table 2).
The study shows that nearly 57.9% watch television for about 2-5 hours per day, followed by 28.9% for observers 6-8 hours, while only 7.9% said they see the TV up to 9 to 12 hours per day. Others who watch over this time have been completely ignored in their subject. This result is consistent with U.S. experience, where is an average teenager to be watching television three hours of television per day and most of the events that are contained high doses of sexual content, ranging from touching, kissing, jokes, innuendo and discussions about sexual activity and representations of relationships (Collins et al, 2004). Almost all respondents Internet access and installation of 84.2% to surf the Internet, on average 5.2 hours per day (table 2). Although most do not want to do in the presence of parents, about 26% would not mind, even while browsing the parent is present.
Exposure to adult entertainment and sexual behavior
Although there are various means by which adolescents are exposed to them, the most common source is television as confirmed by the study. Over 75% of this meeting on television. Approximately 65% of entering into contact with videos pornography through any medium of print and Internet offer of 40% and 35% of pornography sample, respectively, confirming the widespread that the majority of adolescents exposed to view or adult entertainment via the television and watch movies. About two thirds of respondents already had sex and almost half of that figure (48.8%) were exposure to adult entertainment and about 51.2% had not (Table 3). In addition, report shows that 10 of the 32 respondents who have had sex said they had never been exposed adult entertainment at all.
Teens opinion about adult entertainment
Table 4 shows that 45.6% of respondents agreed that the instinct adult entertainment that ginger sex while 20.4% of respondents are dissatisfied. about 0.9% can not decide alone 28.1% agree that custom may influence sexual desire. In total, 82 survey respondents, a total of 114 respondents admitted that listening to or indulging in entertainment for adults could affect adolescent sexuality.
Three assumptions were made including: (1) adult entertainment has a negative effect on adolescent sexuality (2) the lifestyle to encourage teen parents to go on adult entertainment, and (3) that sex education can serve as a substitute for entertainment adult sexual life of adolescents. The results are shown in Table 5, 6 and 7, respectively. These were analyzed using the statistical method of Chi-square (X2). This figure was calculated using SPSS.
The proposed adult entertainment can have a negative effect on adolescent sexual behavior has been confirmed (Table 5). A 5% level of significance, X2 card is much smaller than the X2 calluses (100.56). We can therefore say to the observation of Walsh-Childers and Brown (1993) exposure rather than conclude with the adoption and the manifestation of these illicit sexual behavior. A child who is exposed to sexual content tend to behave on stage, he / she consulted.
Table 5 shows that the style of parenting encourages teens to get into entertainment Nigeria adults (X2 = 29.86 cal.) This conclusion is confirmed by Tschann & Adler (1997) who observed that in some homes, sexual matters are shrouded in secrecy and discussed sexual problems are rare or absent altogether. Many teenagers simply feel comfortable discussing their sexuality and most of them do not receive information about reproduction or contraception parents. However, the likelihood that adolescents talk with their parents depends on the degree of the relationship between this time (Papini, Farmer, Clark, and Snell, 1998) and self-esteem and individuation. This means that teens can not get your sexual problems their parents because they are still in the early stages of the individuation process, and therefore rely on other sources. This confirms that sex education can serve as a substitute for adult entertainment in the 5% significance and X2 form (9.49) <Cal X2 (72.02), as shown in Table 5.
Religion and nudity
What no law in Nigeria endorses pornography and nudity is still a foreign custom or practice the cultural context of Nigeria in general. However, certain cultural rituals allow the exposure of a body part during the festival, including, but not absolute nudity as encouraged by the media today as watchful and religious organizations themselves. Naked permissiveness is an issue of great concern for the well-intentioned moralists disciplined and dedicated in particular because of how organisms show sanctioned by the free use of certain dressings body exposed in public places and even in holy places such as churches or religious centers.
The position of silence of the church and the presence of rare species dressed in the churches represent a bum dressing approval. In the FGD, some Participants felt that pornography violates the command of God that says, 'Do not commit adultery …… or do anything like it "(Deuteronomy 5:18; Exodus 20:14) and it is estimated that this may lead to other serious sins. members of the Church should avoid pornography in any form and should oppose its production, distribution and use.
Conclusions and recommendations
This study confirmed that most parents usually do not bring their children to sex education and that children do not feel free to discuss sexuality issues with their parents, a gap important in the family that adolescents are difficult to fill through any source available at any price. Among the interesting observations have shown in this study is that many teens feel at ease looking TV with your parents around, but are not always comfortable surfing the Internet with their parents or adults around him. Privacy is in most cases very limited considering television that adolescents prefer to explore the privacy inherent in the Internet (Cyber café for example) and see what he / she wants.
Pornography is the most common form of entertainment for adults and adolescents exposed to Nigeria and dance erotic, prostitution, sex shows and dispossession are not popular. Although the most common means by which this is access to television, more children adult entertainment than in women. Many young people can watch TV with their parents, so they do not want to see other media, all elderly or parents are present. Many agreed that look can encourage them to have a sexual experience and relationship. But while the study confirmed that the entertainment adult may have adverse effects on the sexual behavior of adolescents, sex education could serve as adequate substitutes for adult entertainment sexual life of adolescents.
The media and the technological advances of the 21st century has played an important role in the dissemination of entertainment for adults that teenagers can easily obtain, information from the Internet or watching movies on television. The majority of adolescents in Nigeria are highly vulnerable Adult's hospitality. It is clear however that the lack of adequate sex education at home by parents or guardians in schools by teachers is largely responsible desperate adventure of young people to "meet the missing link at all costs." This unmet need for home as it requires the intervention of other sources, that in most cases, generally satisfied by their peers, with recidivism. If applied cultural theory: the adoption of values and beliefs and behavior expressed monitor deteriorate. This will make them experience what they have been exposed in the form of sex.
It is estimated, based on the results of this study that sex teens you can vote again generate sustainable and responsible, knowledgeable and well-equipped future generation of adults in the mature and successful parents. The results here are for the actions of those directly involved in rehabilitation (where appropriate) the flickering image of a society that has virtually lost its moral values of good conduct in the field of sexuality. Therefore, it is in this paper do argued that the high rate of teenage indulgence adult entertainment could be reduced through the provision of adequate sex education Youth in normal open environments such as schools, seminaries, religious houses, the syndrome rather than the illegal campaign today. sexuality program / courses must be developed and integrated into the curricula of academic institutions, especially in secondary education and tertiary education. A high degree of closeness between parents and children (CPC) should be a priority in every home, because it ultimately leads, feel free to discuss children sensitive issues, including those related to sexuality, with parents. restrictions must also be placed in the media by the government study, rigid censorship should be placed in media coverage of issues of sexuality. The media should be made to offer alternative forms of entertainment for teenagers, academic field who educate their age.
