DuneMan 02/05/24 11:44:44 AM #3:	Unironically it probably depends on who is having sex. If it fits the 'cishet' label then people online will shit on it. If it doesn't fit that label it'll likely be championed instead.

DuneMan 02/05/24 12:06:40 PM #15:	My dad usually got most of the channels, as watching movies was his main hobby. Many of the channels had their own takes on sexualized programming. HBO had a series that ran for years called 'Real Sex' that explored anything that wasn't basic coitus. Show Time I think had a promotion with Suicide Girls for a while. I remember being mildly surprised flipping through channels when I saw a former contestant on SyFy's Face Off doing nude shoots for SG. --- "I'd rather betray the world than let the world betray me." -Cao Cao <cite>DuneMan posted [p:978667035] in Streaming ...

Prestoff 02/05/24 12:30:26 PM #20:	There was a lot of those shows in the infancy age of original shows for Streaming platforms because they were essentially trying to show off what they could do with what Television couldn't do. Honestly now, I hate sex scenes especially ones that go on for way too long and only put a halt on the actual plot of the show. Sense 8 was the biggest offender of this, I swear they had an orgy scene that went on for like 10 minutes and it was awkward as fuck. --- DI MOLTO! <cite>Prestoff posted [p:978667482] in Streaming ...
