Maybe it goes the other way.... The fact that there is a housing crisis is the direct result of unnecessary sex scenes in movies. If they didn't put those scenes in, there would be less people clamouring to move out of their parents house, thus lowering the demand for housing.
We need a politician to run on this platform!
Nah, it's the corporations buying up all the housing to sell for rentals or airbnbs that is causing the housing crisis, not awkward sex scenes.
... Do you think he was being serious?
No, just pointing out the real reason so the humor is more obvious.
It's a self regulating problem really if you think about it.
If filmmakers adjust the amount of unnecessary sex scenes depending on how many people live with their parents, then it's what ecologists would call a negative feedback loop.
Sorry guys, could you do less sex scenes pls? Everytime i watch a movie, I'd like to have empathetic connection with the characters, and since I'm using arch btw, all the aformentioned scenes ruin all the immersion for me :(
How ArchLinux users can get to have sex:
Burn ArchLinux to a CD.
Fuck the center hole of the CD.
Wait... You're telling me all of those wallpapers with anime girls on them do not translate to an active sex life? I feel like I've been lied to!

Unless I'm specifically watching porn, I generally don't like sex scenes in movies. I always feel like I'm watching something I shouldn't be watching.
They're really useless in most movies. Last awesome sex scene I've seen was in Gone Girl - where Neil Patrick Harris gets well and truely fucked.
You clearly don't watch bridgerton then, for instance the last scene of episode 4 of season three had one of the characters getting finger blasted in the back of a coach before the dude got out and offer the women help down using the same hand he was just going to town on her lady bits with. This was scene was VITAL to the plot.
Hell ye. Great film!
Does this hit a little to close to (your parents’) home?
Sex scenes can absolutely feed a narrative purpose, like in Game of Thrones where it's almost always a political motivation or has a greater meaning to it. However, if I wanted to watch two people have sex, I would go to a different site to watch it/wouldn't go to a movie theater for it.
People aren't upset about sex scenes, they're upset about unnecessary ones.
Well ok but is it necessary to show the fake, non explicit sex act? I.e. is the plot furthered by watching b list actress #537 show her boobs for 20 seconds while dry humping another b list actor, of course without actually showing anything explicit?
Implied sex, like the scene tastefully cutting out once they start undressing would work just as well.
Just to be clear, I'm sex positive, let me watch two semi famous people fuck on camera if I am supposed to get aroused while watching. Or make a movie that stands on its own without, that I can watch without ending up with an awkward boner.
I just think that the american, prudish softcore “nudity“ of showing some boobs for ratings is the worst of both worlds, can't watch it as a clean family movie or show but it also isnt explicit enough to make it worth watching when horny.
Hey, sorta related, have you ever been to a strip club? I went a single time with some friends when we were early twenties and I just could not understand the point. Exactly like you said here, it's not like I can do anything about it if I get horny, so why am I here? Me and another friend just left early and walked home.
That is actually the epitome of this dumb ass logic (and why I haven't ever been). A place filled with women, specifically designed to make you super horny.
But fucking isnt part of the deal, usually you dont even get to touch anything unless you also want to be touched, by the bouncers.
Just come by, spend a lot of money, and go home alone. No idea how this concept stays afloat
yup. never really got it myself; when I was in the army, people would be like "we'll go meet women at the strip club" nah, bro, you're gonna go dump a chunk of your earnings on looking at tits you will never touch man. and if you're lucky enough to date a stripper, well, that's kind of it's own reward in my experience.
at least in a casino you have some possibility (however minute) of going home with satisfaction....
Unnecessary romance plot is pushed into most movies. If i have to sit through the boring romance scenes, i would rather see some boobs as a reward.
Get rid of the unnecessary romance or let the sex scenes be.
I would go to a different site to watch it/wouldn’t go to a movie theater for it.
The internet really did change a lot of things away from how older generations view society. I think this point alone carries OP's post - T&A in a movie isn't exactly the draw it used to be. Even romantic content^1^ is easier to find on streaming than it was ever made popular on TV or movies.
1 - For "trashy" romantic content, Anime is doing the heavy lifting these days.
