Cinderella Story

Is everyone really having sex at Staton Island? As a downtown, inner city type neighborhood full of diversity, the director of the Cinderella Story film clip argues why sex is seemingly taking over the lives of teenagers, with support from fellow peers. What bothered me about the documentary was how only a single neighborhood in New York, having teenagers with divorced parents, and outgoing party type teenagers were represented in the movie, rather than the majority who live with both their parents, and probably do not have the same party urge as the interviewees. Are they really only sex crazed because of boredom, because of divorced parents, and a boring environment? Blaming the rest of society and their situations for their sexual actions to me seems to be an out or excuse for their own decisions in life. Most people I know, probably the majority, do not just go out from boredom, find a random partner, and proceed to have sex. All the documentary to me does is solidify the fact that there are seemingly less and less restrictions and enforcements on children to do the “right” thing anymore, having these kids, from age 15-18, already performing and doing activities thought to not only be restricted to older kids, but changing their mental perspective on love, sex, and life in general.
Not everyone who has sexual lifestyle at their age necessarily has the exact same social and personal pressures displayed in the documentary. The documentary seemingly argues that everyone with the stated background partakes in sex in an early age, even though there were only a handful of teens interviewed out of the millions in the country. I think in general, it is the person, with some external peer and environmental pressures, that decides if they are part of the sex movement or not.
