Ramkishore MR , Dr. Geetha Bhaskar

Keywords: Sexuality , popular culture, video games and Freudian theory.

This research delves into the complex interplay between Freudian psychoanalysis and the prevalent use of sexuality in modern media, particularly video games. By applying Freudian concepts such as the id, ego, and superego along with the psychosexual stages of development; the study seeks to illuminate the underlying psychological motivations and cultural implications of sexual imagery and content in these mediums. The article examines how Freudian theory can provide valuable insights into the ways in which sexuality is employed to appeal to consumers' unconscious desires, shape societal attitudes, and influence consumer behavior. It explores the potential consequences of excessive exposure to sexualized content, including its impact on individuals' self-esteem, body image, and relationships. Furthermore, the study investigates the cultural and historical contexts in which these media operate, considering factors such as societal norms, technological advancements, and the evolution of consumer preferences. By examining the intersection of Freudian theory and contemporary media practices, this research aims to contribute to a more nuanced understanding of the psychological and cultural significance of sexuality in our modern world.
