This wraps around all the way to the actual article's point: it's kind of fucked up for some here to assume that Gen Z viewers of entertainment (or fellow Hexbears that have already stated their opinions here) are all, quote, "babies" or maybe "against art itself" or some fashionably "just kidding, unless" ableist term if they prefer less sex gimmicks in their fiction.
I think it's actually more problematic to imply that anyone who disagrees with you is just barely restraining themselves from saying the r-slur, but maybe that's just me
lmao do you ever get tired of shadowboxing at people not at all saying what you think they're saying. "how good movies handle sex" is not about fucking game of thrones it's recognition of the hundreds of films that use or talk about sexuality on dimensions beyond a cheap titillation, that never seem to be relevant when people are railing against 'sex in movies' and asserting it's always unnecessary.
Lmao, what the fuck? I say exactly what I think is anti-art, and it's the idea that anything unnecessary to the plot should be excised. Wanting less sex in media is not itself anti-art, but arguing that everything in piece of media (including, but not limited to sex) needs to be in service to the plot is.
Unless you were just pre-loaded to be mad at someone who had a take that as far as I can tell didn't post that take in this thread.
I see this take all the time on Twitter. You don't think this entire discourse originated at this very minute, no? I wasn't responding to anyone in particular in the thread. Just because you feel obligated to make passive aggressive call out posts like this one doesn't mean that's what I was doing
