Public concern over the effects of television on young people has led to much empirical investigation, principally regarding television violence and, to a lesser extent, sexual content. Young viewers 'read' sexual scenes through the lens of their own prior experiences and developing sexual identities and are capable of interpreting moral messages underlying scenes of a sexual nature; their views are often influenced by broader moral values such as trust and mutual respect. Indeed, it has been argued that the overarching moral messages contained in television fiction are more important than specific content. Here, Burr discusses the impact that television fiction may have upon the understanding of women's sexuality and sexual oppression. Using the cult television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer (BtVS) as a case study, she argues that some censorship deprives viewers of the opportunity to reflect upon and debate sexual mores.
