f you believe the research, that's getting too many of them sexually active and leading to unwanted teenage pregnancies. The figures, conducted by behavioural scientist Anita Chandra, shows teens who watch shows with the most activity are more likely to become pregnant over the next three years than those who didn't watch the shows or viewed fewer of them.

I don't know if I buy it. To me this is the same as the argument against violent video games. Maybe the reason violent people play more violent video games is because they like them...because they like violence.
I suggest the same thing here. If you like sex, you probably like shows about sex, which is why you're more likely to have sex. I should also note that of the three shows they listed (Friends, That 70s Show, and Sex and the City) the only really risque one is Sex and the City and it's pretty clear it's an 18+ show.
