The EroTICs: Sexuality and the Internet – an exploratory research looks at how the internet plays host to critical information about sex education, health, fighting sex discrimination and defining one’s own sexuality. The research is divided into five reports written by teams in five different countries.
Each of the country teams engaged with diverse sections of society and communities, including young women (India), library users and particularly young people among them (US), transgender people (South Africa), lesbian women (Lebanon, India and Brazil), sexual rights advocates (Lebanon and Brazil), social networking users (all countries) and men who advocate for relationships with young people (Brazil).
The primary research goal was to respond to the question:
How may emerging debates and the growing practice of online content regulation either impede or facilitate the different ways women use the internet and the impact on their sexual expression, sexualities and sexual health practices, and the assertion of their sexual rights?
