This project examines the widespread interest in 'sexualization' in the media, popular books, government policies and academic research. Sexualization is often seen as indicating a problematic use of media and popular culture by young people and associated with permissive sex practices. Academics have noted that sex is more visible in culture than in the past, that there appears to have been a 'pornographication' of mainstream culture, and that pornography is now more diverse and much more accessible than in the past. It has been argued that all these developments can be understood as part of the development of a 'striptease culture' in which private life, intimacy, commerce and media are no longer understood or experienced as separate as they may have been in the past. In the last few years, sexualization has become a subject of real fascination - in the UK there have been no less than three major reports in the last two years - and it has become the focus of many campaigning groups who object to pornography and 'porn culture'. Sexualization is also increasingly a theme in academic work across a range of academic disciplines including law, sociology, psychology, media and cultural studies.This project seeks to investigate the phenomenon of sexualization and the concerns it has raised in more detail. It examines what the sexualized imagery found in contemporary art, pornography, 'shock' imagery, and other 'extreme' representations have in common. It considers how concern has increasingly focused on young people's use of technology. It explores the ways that ideas about gender, sex and age-appropriate behaviour are changing, and how these are related to the development of a range of technologies and to the changing nature of society in the twenty first century.

这个项目研究了媒体、流行书籍、政府政策和学术研究中对“性化”的广泛兴趣。性行为往往被视为表明年轻人在使用媒体和流行文化方面存在问题，并与放纵的性行为有关。学者们指出，性在文化中比过去更明显，主流文化似乎已经“被描绘”，色情现在比过去更多样化，更容易获得。有人认为，所有这些发展都可以被理解为“脱衣舞文化”发展的一部分，在这种文化中，私人生活、亲密关系、商业和媒体不再像过去那样被单独理解或体验。在过去的几年里，性化已经成为一个真实的令人着迷的主题-在英国，在过去的两年里至少有三个主要的报告-它已经成为许多反对色情和“色情文化”的运动团体的焦点。在法律、社会学、心理学、媒体和文化研究等一系列学科的学术工作中，性化也日益成为一个主题。本项目旨在更详细地调查性化现象及其引起的关切。它探讨了在当代艺术中发现的性化图像，色情，“震惊”图像和其他“极端”表现的共同点。它考虑了人们如何越来越关注年轻人对技术的使用。它探讨了关于性别、性和适龄行为的观念正在发生变化的方式，以及这些观念如何与一系列技术的发展和二十一世纪不断变化的社会性质相关联。
