Let's face it, it's because the housing market is destroyed so they have to live with their parents πŸ˜‚

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?

[–] Granixo@feddit.cl 11 points 1 year ago

No, i don't.

[–] Holyginz@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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.

[–] Granixo@feddit.cl 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Do-do-do-do-do!! Do-do-do-do-do!!

Do it HEALTHY!! πŸ₯©πŸ₯¬

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Sex in movies makes your teeth go grey!

[–] basxto@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago

It can be too much as you can see in low budget trash movies.

[–] girltwink@lemmy.world 44 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I only want gay sex in media. Straight sex makes me uncomfortable.

[–] STUPIDVIPGUY@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

this is the truth. gen z is not "puritanical" we just don't like boring cookie cutter shit.

[–] shadowspirit@lemmy.world 43 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

!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. πŸ˜„

[–] ashok36@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

Reminds me of their, "Art historians remain confused as to why anyone would create new art when Megadeth's Rust in Piece already exists."

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Sex is really meant to be viewed live, anyway.

[–] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 42 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Sex is unrealistic. It was created by Walt Disney in the 1930s to make Donald Duck seem interesting, but nobody actually does it.

β€œIt makes my AI girlfriend uncomfortable.”

Haha, The Onion is killing it, like always.

[–] JunglGeorg@lemmy.world 31 points 1 year ago

β€œExistence is pain, and sex is just a sedative.”

πŸ€” I mean.. They're not wrong

[–] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 31 points 1 year ago

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"

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 29 points 1 year ago

Real reason: They all still live at home, have to watch with their parents, and will do until their parents die of old age.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The ficticious quotes in that article are absolutely brilliant.

[–] backpackn@lemmy.ml 58 points 1 year ago

For real. This one got me the best:

β€œWe 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.”

[–] JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.sdf.org 26 points 1 year ago (2 children)

What are you saying? That it seems today all you see is violence and movies and sex on TV?

[–] Sir_Fridge@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah! Where are those good old-fashioned values?

[–] Gestrid@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 year ago

You mean those values on which we used to rely?

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Is The Onion doing facts instead of satire now? This hits hard.

[–] Zink@pawb.social 18 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Removing the /j, a lot of modern media really does push on that sex drive.

[–] Pinklink@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] frickineh@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

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.

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

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.

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (6 children)

Why remove the jizz?

But, again removing the j/, i wholeheartedly agree, with one exception: if it's done like sam & emma in genV.

Let's wait for the 1st one to fall for this and be posted in AteTheOnion

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Do we not realize this is satire? Go to every other country and you will see way more sex and much less violence on the Tele. Seems like we could do some good in the US by changing our viewing habits.

But where are those good old fashion values (trumpets) on which we used to relyyuyy… lucky there’s a family guy. Lucky there’s a man who, positively can do all the things that make us (laugh and cry). HES A FAMILYYYY GUYYYYYYY

Of course there's Family Guy reference.

[–] Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

I (26), absoutely as old as can be for a Gen Z, personally want more sex in movies. I dont watch anything mainstream, anything PG-13. The movie I watched last night included a sexual assault. And that movie was fucking thought provoking. I wanna make that choice that what I watch is graphic. And guess what I live with my Mom and watch with her. She's a badass.

[–] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You didn’t tell us the movie. Such a tease.

[–] rockerface@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I can't believe we got blue balled like that

[–] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I thought blue balls were a myth. Then I got them. They are not a myth. They are painful.

[–] SternburgExport@feddit.de 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah sorry for kicking you in the nuts the other day.

[–] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I deserved it for watching hentai.

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think Stephanie and Rachael have solid points.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern 2 points 1 year ago

Nah, Kenny and Henry are the ones that REALLY get it.
