The answer is: have permissive attitudes toward sex.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Engage in monogamous sexual relationships: This option is less likely to be directly influenced by exposure to sexually explicit content. Monogamous relationships are typically based on personal values, cultural norms, and individual preferences rather than media exposure.

  2. Have permissive attitudes toward sex: Research has shown that exposure to sexually explicit content can lead to more permissive attitudes toward sex. Adolescents may develop a more liberal view of sexual behaviors and norms after being exposed to such content, as it often portrays sex in a casual or non-committal manner.

  3. Practice abstinence: Exposure to sexually explicit content is generally not associated with an increase in abstinence. In fact, it may have the opposite effect by normalizing sexual activity and reducing the perceived importance of abstinence.

  4. Engage in oral or anal sex: While exposure to sexually explicit content might influence the types of sexual activities adolescents consider, it is not specifically linked to an increase in oral or anal sex over other types of sexual behavior.

  5. Have multiple sexual partners: Although exposure to sexually explicit content might contribute to more permissive attitudes, which could lead to having multiple sexual partners, this is a more indirect effect compared to the direct influence on attitudes toward sex.
