Teen Sexuality

In her analysis of ABC’s After School Specials (1972–1995), Julie Passanante Elman argues that disability was central to television's "turn toward relevance" and its construction of the "teen viewer." The Specials represented coming of age by consistently linking heterosexuality with able-bodiedness and metaphorically representing adolescence as a process of “overcoming disability.” Simultaneously, they redefined both teen television viewing and teen sexuality as productive rather than damaging. Articulating insights from disability studies to television studies, Elman demonstrates how the Specials’ disability narratives negotiated the complex terrain of teen sexuality, representations of disability, and an assertion of commercial television’s educational value.

Teen Sexuality

Though many might forget the origins of the now familiar lament, "Babies having Babies," it was the refrain that Bill Clinton used to legitimize and champion parts of the welfare reform act of 1996. "Liberal" democrats, conservative republicans, health and educational interest groups, and media pundits pinned poverty on poor women's and particularly, teen sexuality.
