Sex scenes can absolutely feed a narrative purpose, like in Game of Thrones where it's almost always a political motivation or has a greater meaning to it. However, if I wanted to watch two people have sex, I would go to a different site to watch it/wouldn't go to a movie theater for it.

People aren't upset about sex scenes, they're upset about unnecessary ones.

Well ok but is it necessary to show the fake, non explicit sex act? I.e. is the plot furthered by watching b list actress #537 show her boobs for 20 seconds while dry humping another b list actor, of course without actually showing anything explicit?

Implied sex, like the scene tastefully cutting out once they start undressing would work just as well.

Just to be clear, I'm sex positive, let me watch two semi famous people fuck on camera if I am supposed to get aroused while watching. Or make a movie that stands on its own without, that I can watch without ending up with an awkward boner.

I just think that the american, prudish softcore “nudity“ of showing some boobs for ratings is the worst of both worlds, can't watch it as a clean family movie or show but it also isnt explicit enough to make it worth watching when horny.

Unnecessary romance plot is pushed into most movies. If i have to sit through the boring romance scenes, i would rather see some boobs as a reward.

Get rid of the unnecessary romance or let the sex scenes be.
