I also noticed hollywood often depict a woman cheating on the man and the man forgiving it.

Most of the (supposed) younger generation people I interact with online seem even more prudish and conservative about sex than my very religious parents were growing up. It's super weird to be the older person who's ok with sexual content. I don't really get it.

And yes, I know people will claim it's because it's only when it's not done right or when it feels shoved in, but honestly from the way they talk about anything dealing with sex, it feels like that's just an acceptable excuse and they really just don't want the content to exist at all, even if 'done right'. It's like a huge chunk of the generation is asexual or something.

Team America World Police is the only movie that ever got the sex scene right.

I have argued this a bunch of times at this point, but movies should choose a target demographic and then go for it:

  • Make family friendly movies without awkward implied sex under covers or while wearing underwear and such nonsense. Something that I can watch with family without it getting awkward

OR

  • make adult, explicit movies where the actors are actually, explicitly, visibly fucking during sex scenes. Doesnt have to be straight up porn, just make sex scenes sex scenes.

TLDR: Make actual family friendly movies without, and actually adult and explicit movies with. The middle of the road stuff makes it awkward and/or unsatisfying for everyone present

Sex scenes peaked when Tommy Wiseau passionately made love to a belly button and you can't tell me differently.

It's because kids are staying home with mom and dad much later and you know how uncomfortable everyone in the room gets when there's a bang scene.

*The processing statement was a joke, albeit a bad one. Any similarities to true events are purely coincidental and the author bears no responsibility for any implied or actual hurt feelings.

21, century of the fantasy, watch out antique civilisations!

Hopeful, uplifting content with people "beating the odds."

I don't only want that by any means, but it sure would be nice to have more positive stories. Even better, more shows and movies where not every character is horribly irredeemable.

This new generation of kids is much more chill, educated and not sex crazed like we were. I feel like we were all boning young and being wild, getting drunk in high school. Now teens like to code, go on social media, game, etc. Going out to party and get wild is not attractive to them

I would have watched game of thrones without the porn.

I legit can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not, because it perfectly encapsulates the weird way america is so blase about depictions of graphic, gleeful violence while simultaneously being horrified at seeing a nipple.on tv.

What you didn't want to see a dude fuck his sister, a dude rape a teenager, or a little dude fuck a bunch of prostitutes?

For all the time GRRM spends describing sex, he really goes out of his way to make it as fucked up as possible.

The issue here isn't sex, its censorship. Texas already requires age verification for adult sites. They got that win. Fine. Now they want to go after TV and movies. Ok.

So then what's next?

They will then start going after anything "they" deem unfit. It's a slippery slope. Just look at them already banning books.

And here's the thing. We show it. We show all of it.

Crime. Penetration. Crime. Full penetration. Crime, penetration.
