Teenagers who listen to sexually charged songs are more likely to have sexual intercourse than those who do not, a study suggests.
A research team at the University of Pittsburgh divided 711 teens into three groups based on how much sexual music they listen to, and said 45 percent of those who listened to a weekly average of 17.6 hours of raunchy music had intercourse. On the other hand, of those exposed to music with sexual lyrics only 2.7 hours a week, only 21 percent had a sexual experience. The findings were published in the latest issue of the American Journal of Preventive Medicine.
Dr. Brian Primack said, "There is no firm proof that raunchy music has a direct linkage with sexual intercourse, but it seems true that sexually charged music causes earlier sexual experiences. Parents should have conversations with their children about the sexual content of the music."
