| Description | This research provided crucial insights into how young people's sexual practices manifest and what social meanings are attached to them. Our findings about anal sex have particularly had an impact. For instance, we have shown that despite a common tendency to 'blame' pornography for anal sex, the reality is more complex. Sexual coercion in anal sex appears to be a problem for young people, and young men badgering young women for anal sex is normalised. While the idea to have anal sex may come from many places, including peers, or pornography, the practice of badgering or even attempting anal penetration without consent is attributable to sexual double standards and normalisation of coercion in general. We also showed how oral sex is practised in ways that are not always consensual and despite talking about how oral sex should be reciprocal between men and women partners, men were far more likely to report refusing to 'go down' on women when they did not want to whereas young women reported using strategies to make it more palatable such as using flavoured lube. Ideas about reciprocity were sometimes used to pressure partners into oral sex (I went down on you so now you have to go down on me). Our research highlights the importance of consent and mutuality in sex, whatever the practice, and addressing this should be a priority in sexuality education. |
| Exploitation Route | Our findings have been used to help the general public understand sexual practices and coercion among young people, and have helped inform healthcare practitioners. The work has been used by those developing and delivering sexuality education curricula. |

| Description | Even several years after the award, we continue to write about and disseminate our findings, which have been of wide interest. Our findings have contributed to theory and understanding of young people's sexual practices. We have spoken to numerous practitioners about our findings both formally via conferences and meetings and informally in other settings. Our findings have been covered in national and international media and have reached the public. Members of the public have contacted us directly to us to discuss our work, and have provided commentary on the work via BBC radio 4 and on numerous internet sites. This has particularly been the case for our work on coercive sexual activity. Work from this project has led to invitation to sit on an expert panel to inform government strategies to limit children's access to online pornography and is likely to influence the eventual policy in this area. Senior lawyers are interested in the work on coercion and conversations about this are ongoing. I worked with the World Health Organization developing guidelines in related work on child and adolescent maltreatment, including sexual abuse. Interest in the work has led most recently to new collaborations which we hope to develop into funded research projects. |

| Results and Impact | I was asked to write an article based on the paper I published about anal sex. The article draws out the main messages of the paper, calling for a focus on mutality and not consent in sex education. The purpose was to draw attention to different types of sexual coercion and begin a conversation in wider society about coercive anal heterosex. The article was republished by The Washington Post, and the website informed me on the day that it was viewed >8000 times in the first few hours of publication. There was huge interest in the paper in general, but it seems likely that this article helped to bring the key messages to a wider audience and its popularity helped me to control the message, i.e. what was being shared came from me and not from a journalist. |

| Results and Impact | The interview from the daily show was selected for the weekly roundup of highlights and re-broadcast the following Saturday 20 September. After the second airing of the interview, various emails from members of the public were read out, suggesting that the programme had had a significant impact on at least those people who had corresponded with the programme afterwards. One said he was a sex educator and the interview would be an excellent way to facilitate discussion in his classes. |

| Results and Impact | I was interviewed about some of the findings from this project. The programme aired after numerous warnings about the content and was included in the weekly roundup of the programme on the following weekend. On the podcast that day, emails were also read out with the audience reactions to the interview, which were highly encouraging and sometimes moving. So far, the main impact has been that there has been a very public discussion of something that had previously been an issue that was completely off-limits in 'polite society'. Anecdotally many people have told me that it has helped them open up conversations that they previously would not have felt able to have. Talking about issues like this in a public forum allows others to have conversations about the conversation they just witnessed i.e. depersonalises the conversation and also allows it to be mentioned in the first place ('did you hear that programme on the radio?') |

| Results and Impact | Although research into young people's sexual development has tended to be preoccupied with vaginal intercourse, researchers are increasingly examining a wider range of sexual practices that young people engage in, including the sequences in which they are experienced. As in other aspects of young people's lives, concepts of linearity have been utilised to classify sequences of practices - or 'sexual trajectories' - with a 'linear' sequence typically described as progressing from kissing to hand-genital contact to vaginal intercourse. Ideas about sexual sequence are also present in young people's own discourse, with the language of 'bases' being a common way of talking about early sexual activity. Drawing on data from an ESRC-funded qualitative longitudinal study, we examine what young people perceive to be a 'normal' sequence of sexual practices amongst their age group, and how they account for their own, often more diverse, repertoires and sequences of sexual practices. This paper, therefore, complements a broader discussion about 'ordinariness' by contributing empirical data which challenges current discourses of 'normality' in relation to young people's sexual development. DIscussion of material and invitation to contribute to a set of papers emerging from the conference. |
