Let’s face it, it’s because the housing market is destroyed so they have to live with their parents 😂
Fuuuuck… Just rolling out the deep cuts
I love watching porn, i really do.
But when i’m watching a movie/tv show, i wanna get some actual plot, you know?
I’m not against the presence of nudity/sex scenes in media. But i’m tired of seeing people on the screen copulating just for the sake of it (again, unless it’s porn).
I know that there are people who do have casual sex often (it’s kind of a cultural thing), but for a lot of us that’s just isn how it goes (or at least not in our current situation).
My point is, i want to see good writing, that does not have to force sex in order to be interesting or have high ratings.
Unfortunately, it seems the more tech we have, the less time and money do the big companies want to invest on making a good product.
Thus, support independent film makers!!
Hmm… Best we can do is have ol Oppenheimer say his famous catchphrase in the middle of sex. You sure you don’t want that?
No, i don’t.
My thing is that I know sex sells, and my monkey brain still gets drawn to that stuff. But I dont that it feels like I’m being bombarded by it from all sources. It’s tiring and doesn’t feel healthy.
Do-do-do-do-do!! Do-do-do-do-do!!
Do it HEALTHY!! 🥩🥬
Sex in movies makes your teeth go grey!
It can be too much as you can see in low budget trash movies.
I only want gay sex in media. Straight sex makes me uncomfortable.
this is the truth. gen z is not “puritanical” we just don’t like boring cookie cutter shit.
!The concept of sex in movies already reached its peak with Porky’s, and any attempts to improve on that are just embarrassing.!<
Never change Onion. 😄
Reminds me of their, “Art historians remain confused as to why anyone would create new art when Megadeth’s Rust in Piece already exists.”
Sex is really meant to be viewed live, anyway.
Sex is unrealistic. It was created by Walt Disney in the 1930s to make Donald Duck seem interesting, but nobody actually does it.

What?
“It makes my AI girlfriend uncomfortable.”
Haha, The Onion is killing it, like always.
My favorite: “We held a meeting and decided being radically open about gender while adopting a puritanical outlook on sex was the best way to shock Boomers to death”
“Existence is pain, and sex is just a sedative.”
🤔 I mean… They’re not wrong
The ficticious quotes in that article are absolutely brilliant.
For real. This one got me the best:
“We held a meeting and decided being radically open about gender while adopting a puritanical outlook on sex was the best way to shock Boomers to death.”
Real reason: They all still live at home, have to watch with their parents, and will do until their parents die of old age.
What are you saying? That it seems today all you see is violence and movies and sex on TV?
Yeah! Where are those good old-fashioned values?
You mean those values on which we used to rely?
Effin’ cry
Is The Onion doing facts instead of satire now? This hits hard.
Removing the /j, a lot of modern media really does push on that sex drive.
The amount of the population that is truly asexual is insanely low, and sex is biologically intended to arouse (in all senses of the word). Gotta reach the widest audience possible, and excite them when reached
I think if the sex scenes were done well, that’d be one thing (still wouldn’t interest me, but I can see how they’d speak to others), but most of it is so bad. I finally watched Bridgerton a couple weeks ago and I can’t figure out why people were so horny for 30 seconds of some dude jackhammering away in the missionary position. Like why is it even necessary to show that mediocrity? Just skip it and add a little more plot.
I don’t know what media you’re watching, but I can’t recall much of any in the past few years. Then again, I don’t watch every single movie that comes out.
Why remove the jizz?
But, again removing the j/, i wholeheartedly agree, with one exception: if it’s done like sam & emma in genV.
God that whole universe got so lame with the dicks everywhere. Like it was funny the first couple times in Boys but then they just kept beating that dead horse like the screaming goats in the last Thor movie.
i have to admit, i haven’t watched The Boys yet ( soon ) and but i didn’t see a dick in genV yet - aaaaahhh, you mean that fake dick emma was hanging on in the first or second episode? Ok, yes, there was also the exploding one. Tbh these 2 were pretty funny imo and also intended as a joke.
When sam & emma have sex, it was really them just having sex - at least for me, it succeeded to show how deep these two connected and how much they care for each other.
But from what i heard, The Boys really has much more intense sex scenes, intended to make you uncomfortable from the get go.
Watch the boys and come to your own conclusion.
I don’t recall too much sex, but when it was it was a pretty major driver.
I’m very excited for s4, but have no interest in the expanded universe ala genV
Did you watch genV?
I’m sad to say after enjoying the boys and watching the gen v trailer, I have no desire to watch any episodes of it. If I’m told it’s good I’ll check it out, but it really doesn’t look like my cup of tea (the wife shared this opinion after was watched the trailer together, we both collectively sighed and agreed that if the show were like the trailer it wasn’t for us)
I didn’t see the trailer - I’ll see if i find it. I’m interested to see if it matches the actual series.
I read an interview with the Showrunner and I’m afraid both series will play closely together in the future. I don’t want to spoil anything, but you may at least have to check out what happened in gen v, if you want to understand the things happening in the boys’ next season , when it starts.
I’d rather see sex than the ridiculous amount of normalized violence on the average torture porn serial killer prime time detective agency show.
I love that TokenBoomer posted this
Let’s wait for the 1st one to fall for this and be posted in AteTheOnion
