Results and conclusions
![Page 6: Iolanda tortajada, núria araüna](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051612/54c56c444a7959e7308b458d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
I. Self-representation
1. SEXUALISED
REPRESENTATIONS
Teenagers make sexualised self-
representations, both through the
usernames they choose (20% of
our sample) and through the
pictures they post (40% pose in
sexy clothing)
‘Sexy’ usernames: Girls: put_it_in_me_smoothly do_me_wildly make_me_feel_yours visual_pleasure do_me_in_public Boys: meet_me_on_my_bed doesn't_fit_in_your_hand single_and_no_commitment I'll_set_you_on_fire I've_got_what_you_want condomless_night

2. GENDER
DIFFERENCES
Male users tend to portray themselves in active
poses, surrounded by objects that underscore their
power or position in a peer group
Women tend to focus their attention on beauty and
intimacy, while usually stressing how important their
(girl)friends and peer group are to them
I. Self-representation
![Page 8: Iolanda tortajada, núria araüna](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051612/54c56c444a7959e7308b458d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Girls: ‘To-be-looked-at’-ness, implying a passive exhibitionist female [body], made to give pleasure to an active male spectator (Mulvey)
II. Male gaze
![Page 9: Iolanda tortajada, núria araüna](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051612/54c56c444a7959e7308b458d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Both girls’ and boys’ poses reflect advertisement gender expressions
III. Hyper-ritualisation

TRADITIONAL MODEL Recurring patterns:
Passion/Violence Love as destiny Dependence and self-
sacrifice Negative feelings
ALTERNATIVE MODEL -Positive feelings towards boyfriends/girlfriends who are supportive - Solidarity (vs competition) among girls
IV. Relationship models
‘I love you more than anything, more than anything I can think of. I love you when you insult me and when you push me and when you are angry at me. I love you when, once you’re finished yelling at me, you hug me and you tell me I’m your whole life’ (Female addressing male)
‘Thanks for listening to me baby ☺ you are really top, I mean it. (Comment between girlfriends)
