Teens Want Less Sex in Movies and TV Shows, Study Finds
Teens prefer movies and shows about friendship and don't feel that entertainment needs so much sex, according to a UCLA report.
I am not a teen.
You're viewing a single thread.
I've been saying this for so long. Don't get me wrong, some films do make sense to have sex scenes. But there are so many that either have hardcore (for TV) sex scenes or just random full nudity that makes it nearly impossible to watch with anyone other than my partner or close friends.
Like if I recommend a film or show to someone and completely forget that it had sex or even just nudity in it, it usually wasn't important to the story. On the other hand, it may have made sense to include in the film but it was so terribly done that I promptly blocked it out.
The other issue is that it has become increasingly difficult to find any shows that either don't include sex scenes, or don't have ridiculous levels of violence, or whatever else is difficult for me to deal with when I just want something easy to watch that's not a kid's movie (although kid's movies have their own set of issues).
Streaming services don't even make it easy to find something to watch - they show you the same stuff over and over, or they pretend that everything is in English when they include so many other languages in the selections. If I am unable to pay attention to the captions then I would prefer to have something in English without trying a bunch of different shows first. I mean I guess this is partly (mainly?) my fault since I've failed to learn another language despite years of studying. But I think it just irritates me that they lie about it more than anything.
Idk I am off topic now and this has turned into a really long comment that probably doesn't say anything that hasn't already been said in this thread.
Maybe find less prudish friends? There's nothing wrong with bodies.
Nah, it's useless filler meant to bring in a brain-dead sex deprived audience. Fuck it
That's a whole other conversation, if they were depicting healthy relationships then it would be a lot less of a problem.
Because we can't tell stories that involve people in unhealthy relationships?
As I told another person, if that's the point of the movie then sure. But depicting all relationships as just a sex pact is a bit of an issue.
