My experience of this effect is that it is largely due to the fact that
teenagers are much more susceptible to peer pressure than are younger
children or adults - and while ****ism is not part of mainstream teen
culture, the majority of teenagers will be reluctant to take part, in the
same way that they are reluctant to do anything else outside of their
peers' norm (e.g. go to the opera, learn ballet for males etc) in case one
of these peers hears of it. With the increasing domination of TV
programming by US programs this mainstream teenage culture has become more
uniform and hence stronger in the last twenty years since mine were
teenagers (another four years before the first grandchild is a teen), but
I
have observed it in others.
