Sociologists explore some of the evolving issues concerning sex, gender, and sexuality in the lives of children and adolescents today. Among their topics are how religious groups frame and enact appropriate sexuality and gender norms among young adults, examining the family transition: how parents of gender-diverse youth develop trans-affirming attitudes, sex for money: an exploration of economically motivated relationships among young Black women in Canada, sexual debut education: cultivating a health approach to young people's sexual experiences, and two by two: heteronormativity and the Noah story for children.
