My thesis will assess the legal framework governing the regulation of social media and child sexualization in the United States. It will demonstrate how children are harmed by social media, specifically looking at how girls are sexualized because of social media’s unenforced age policies and the promotion of harmful content. After reviewing previous legislation that has attempted to address this problem, and assessing their weaknesses, I will highlight the resources of bourgeoning political theory postliberalism to bolster legal arguments in favor of expanded legislative protection for children online.
