How Sexual Violence Is Portrayed through Social Media

This research paper investigates the portrayal of sexual violence within a social media framework and context. The subject is examined both using literature which has already been released about the subject to generate a contextual background regarding the subject as well as provide information which has already been investigated. This has been divided into two themes which demonstrate that exposure to sexual content did not result in significant detrimental effects in between those who were and those who were not exposed. In addition, the next study presented the fact that that is might a possibility that exposure to sexually violent content may help people process the information in a safe manner to allow them to deal with the real thing later if they ever encounter it. The results of the studies state that social media did have a way of morphing the perceptions of its users through an extension of the influence people exert on each other. A more thorough study is needed, which encapsulates many platforms that are available on the platform in the contemporary period.
