The document discusses negative stereotypes of youth in media, specifically focusing on their portrayal in films and television dramas. It notes that media often shows young people in a sexually active way and lacks positive portrayals of lesbian, gay and bisexual teenagers, instead focusing on sexual encounters. Young males are usually depicted as predators and females as easy targets. However, portraying positive representations of young LGBTQ+ people and heterosexuals alike could help challenge bullying and discrimination. It questions whether it is fair for media to portray teenagers as perpetrators rather than victims.
