I’ll be okay with sex scenes in media when it’s well intentioned and comes from a place that isn’t saturated by western ideals of misogyny and body shaming. Not to mention the rampant sexual abuse and misogyny present in Hollywood.
Shit like Geralt seeing how many women he can bang for cool cards is objectifying af. Shit like bond banging the main woman of the movie every movie is objectifying af. Making the next bond a woman will not change that.
Also on a personal note I have misophonia and the sound of kissing is a big trigger.
Worth noting Geralt hasn't done that in close to 2 decades now. Witcher 3 sex scenes are actually pretty good in how they're used to deepen or contextualize character relationships
Gotta admit that while vidya sex scenes generally bounce off of me, I did enjoy the way they were done in the witcher 3. They were often treated correctly like something that Geralt, a character who does have and enjoy sex, would do as a part of a larger story.
There's also the fact that most of the women he can hook up with are sorceresses who are decades older than him despite looking like they're in their twenties and who individually are some of the most powerful humans alive, and as a result are every bit as alienated and detached from the world as he is. Like he's basically just a casual hookup they see once a decade or so and one of the only people they can actually relate to. Really gives it a better dynamic than how most handle that sort of thing.
The fact that the first reintroduction of Yennefer in 3 involves her mentioning in a letter that she misses boinking Geralt was more charming to me than I expected
