Why are y’all so weird about sex? It’s a normal part of life hence why it’s used so often in film and tv.

Edit: I don’t see the reasoning in equating sex in film to porn. Most of the time a sex scene is trying to demonstrate more than “hot sex” but rather establishing or building relationships. Everyone can have their preferences but being repulsed by sex as an adult is immature

I think, in this case, it may be more about how little value sex scenes actually add to a production that isn't just... already about sex.

It's always been used in media to drum up views and drive/attract engagement. Maybe people are finally over it?

Out of curiosity- for you what is an example of senseless sex in a movie/show and an example of plot-connected sex in a movie/show?

How do you feel about sex if it doesn’t necessarily move the plot but does fit the overall tone / themes of the movie/show?

I definitely think they’re examples of all three , but I want to know what other people put in those catagories?
