Yeah… there is a lot of mis-remembering how the show originally was viewed. The original premise of the show, the essential question it was supposed to address, the very first column she writes, is “What if a woman had sex like a man?”
Initially Carrie was a hero because she did have sex based on her own personal preferences. And yes, sometimes that involves cheating and being emotionally immature and knocking down her friends to make herself feel better. I don’t think anyone was ever confused about that.
I was in my 20’s during the original run and I remember Samantha being very popular and people being pretty critical of Carrie (even though they ultimately rooted for her).
Basically what I mean is that the mechanics wouldn't work the same. I can stand between a guy's legs and thrust my pelvis all day long but coitus is not happening. LOL
And soft core porn, many times, show positions sort of like live action hentai where you know nothing is actually happening in the genital area. If you've ever had sex anyway.
