ZURIAN, Francisco A.; GARCIA-RAMOS, Francisco-José  and  VAZQUEZ-RODRIGUEZ, Lucía-Gloria. Transnational Dissemination of Discourses on Non-normative Sexualities through Netflix: the Sex Education Case (2019-2020). Comun. soc [online]. 2021, vol.18, e8041.  Epub June 20, 2022.

This paper analyzes the series Sex Education’s role in the transnational dissemination of discourses on non-normative sexualities, equality and LGBTIQ+ diversity. From a LGBTIQ+ Studies perspective, a mixed design with non-experimental ex-post-facto methodology has been applied through transmedia measurement instruments and the ILGA World and Global Attitudes reports. Netflix -through Sex Education- is confirmed to transnationally spread values of diversity and LGBTIQ+ equality in countries without full social and legal protection for such diversity, promoting the construction of alternative subjectivities.

Keywords : Sex Education; Netflix; LGBTIQ+; teen fiction; transnationality.
