Not a teen here but the amount of sex that show characters have seems crazy to me and I genuinely think it affected me because I couldn’t keep up as an impressionable child. It’s ok to have lots of sex but do we have to act like that’s normal and that I should be suffering when I go more than a month without sex?
Sex is very normal though. Just to make an argument here: what if sex had been banned altogether in the media when you were an impressionable child. How would that have worked out for you?
Not better, but I am not advocating for the other extreme. I just think our media could stand to show more variety of what a healthy sex life can look like.

My guess is not better.
