Davidson, P. (2012). The language of internet memes. In M. Mandiberg (Ed.), The social media reader (pp. 120–134). NYU Press.Our findings have implications for sexuality professionals. The memes in our sample reflect ideas about power in (hetero)mantic relationships, connections between pleasure and danger, as well as more obscure messages about religion, shame, and sexuality. Sexuality educators may find it useful to present Internet memes related to sexual choking (or other emerging sexual practices) to generate class discussions, share interpretations, and challenge assumptions that sexual choking is safe. Educators might use media literacy approaches (Celik et al., 2021) to engage learners in a critical appraisal of the sexuality-related memes, the messages being shared through memes, how humor is used, as well as if or to what extent harmful ideas or stereotypes may be conveyed.

[6] Sexuality educators also need to be aware of the diverse and evolving ways that young people learn about sex and that memes are one such source of information. Given the potentially humorous characteristics of some memes and their tendency to normalize difficult experiences (Shifman, 2013), they may be a particularly engaging factor to include in programming, along with the principles of other media literacy efforts to deconstruct messages in the medium. Educators could even encourage their students to create their own memes that convey healthy messages around sexuality while remaining humorous. Subsequent research might examine what people learn about various sexuality topics from engaging with memes. Conclusion Milner, R. M. (2012).
