Description:Love, Sex and Teenage Sexual Cultures in South Africa interrupts the relative silence around teenage constructions of love, sexuality and gender in South Africa. This silence has serious implications in the context of gender inequalities, sexual violence and HIV in the country.In this book, Deevia Bhana show how teenagers negotiate gender and sexuality amidst widespread inequalities and 'structural violence'. By drawing on focus group discussions with African teenage men and women, the book addresses teenage young Africans as active agents, demonstrating their investments in love, whilst drawing attention to the social and cultural constitution of teenage sexualities and the complex operation of power. Discourses of love as the book argues do not stand outside the social contexts from which teenagers emerge. Love operates alongside cultural practices and material realities to constitute particular kinds of men and women and particular formations of masculinities and femininities with implications for relations of power.This book will be of interest to academics, undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers working within sexualities, sociology of youth; HIV, health and gender studies, development and postcolonial studies and African studies.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
