“Oral Sex is the New Goodnight Kiss” by Canadian author Sharlene Azam explores the world of preteen and teen sexuality. Azam posits that many young girls are using sex as currency.
16-year-old Rachel explains in “Oral Sex is the New Goodnight Kiss” that she began having threesomes at a very young age to gain drugs and clothes from her sexual partners.
“Girls are surrounded by a hyper-sexualized culture where they are being groomed and encouraged to think of themselves as: Hooter’s Girl, Stripper, Porn Star. Exposure affects behaviour,” says Sharlene Azam of her book and documentary, “Oral Sex is the New Goodnight Kiss.”
