This is the Editorial introduction to the Genus Journal Thematic Series on “Changes in the sexual behaviour of young people” that collects articles on the sexual behaviour of young people, including specific aspects such as at-risk behaviours, contraception, virginity, sexually transmitted diseases, sexual satisfaction, sexual harassment, sexuality and peers, sexuality and age norms, and non-heterosexual orientation and behaviours, as well as problems related to data collection and methods of analysis. The articles presented in the Thematic Series not only provide a timely and vivid overview of the main transformations of young people’s sexual behaviour; they also propose novel facets and approaches which allow for more general reflections on the youth universe and offer food for thought and proposals for policy interventions aimed at preventing the dangerous consequences and discomfort linked to sexuality at a young age.

Abstract
This is the Editorial introduction to the Genus Journal Thematic Series on “Changes in the sexual behaviour of young people” that collects articles on the sexual behaviour of young people, including specific aspects such as at-risk behaviours, contraception, virginity, sexually transmitted diseases, sexual satisfaction, sexual harassment, sexuality and peers, sexuality and age norms, and non-heterosexual orientation and behaviours, as well as problems related to data collection and methods of analysis. The articles presented in the Thematic Series not only provide a timely and vivid overview of the main transformations of young people’s sexual behaviour; they also propose novel facets and approaches which allow for more general reflections on the youth universe and offer food for thought and proposals for policy interventions aimed at preventing the dangerous consequences and discomfort linked to sexuality at a young age.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
