i might like sex scenes more if most of them weren't so male-gaze-y,

I think thats a good way to put it. Even when it's a story written by a woman it feels odd ( Outlander for example).

I used to read Visual Novels pretty frequent-ish, and would ctrl skip through all the sex scenes because they were all so fucking weird and gross. Idk, it doesn't bother me too much, but it definitely feels uncomfortable in the moment.

that's a very good example, i have a similar experience with them. i play otome games a lot (dating sims targeted at women), and the sex scenes seem to focus on the woman/player character and have her moan a lot and stuff. it doesn't make sense to me when they do the opposite with every other type of cg!

and i've definitely played some that aren't like that, and i do enjoy those, so it's not like it's impossible.
