From the event page:

"About this webinar: We learn about sex, desire, and relationships in all sorts of ways. This might be sex-ed, our friends, our family, but a lot of the time it’s through the media that we watch, read, and scroll past on the daily. This presentation will report on research that looked at how sexual desire was represented across different media and textual sites. The presenter, Dr Jessica Tappin, will discuss what representations of desire exist in the mainstream media space, explore media that are opening up possibilities for sexual desire, and consider what all this means for sexual wellbeing and subjectivity (what we can do, say, and think about ourselves)."
