It specifically focuses on the playful and pleasurable pursuits of these girls as they explore and expand upon their sexual curiosities online.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this digital age, the book invites us to contemplate the multifaceted meanings surrounding porn, as it has become an everyday normative experience. The book adopts an interdisciplinary approach, drawing from and inspired by new feminist materialism and assemblage theorising. Pornographic content is readily accessible to teenage girls through various mediums, including billboards, magazines, books, television, music videos, games, online streaming, and social media sites. It is important to note that girls do not necessarily need to engage with hardcore porn to encounter porn; it is pervasive in various forms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book argues that the online adventures of teenage girls constitute a critical space for learning, development, and negotiation of gender and sexuality. These meanings are constitutive of pleasure and the pursuit of sexual knowledge, but they also provide a platform for girls to challenge race, gender, and heterosexual domination while opening up online porn to broader interrogation and critique.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book will appeal to researchers across African studies, sociology, psychology, anthropology, youth, gender and sexuality studies, porn studies, and childhood studies. Its insights into the experiences of teenage girls in South Africa shed light on the complex interplay between power, sexuality, and technology, offering valuable contributions to the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 540g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032028897\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Deevia Bhana","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44104494055674,"sku":"9781032028897","price":147.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1658501651963_book.jpg?v=1658939893","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/girls-negotiating-porn-in-south-africa-power-play-and-sexuality-9781032028897","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
