    This is actually really sad in a way. This is a person who has no one to go to the movies with, no friends or family willing to watch a film with them. I can’t imagine someone coming to this conclusion otherwise.

    I doubt most people would go to their mum and be like “Hey, want to watch that borderline softcore porn superhero movie with me?”

    This is what the directors of exploitation movies thought, and those films never really made huge amounts of money even in their heyday. This gooner shit is the refuge of directors who don’t have any good ideas and who lived in a time before internet porn.

    These look like promos for porn parodies.

    Go make porn parodies if that’s what you want.

    Shoving porn in front of people’s faces when they’re not looking for it is sexual harassment. Advocating for a world where there’s porn everywhere is like being one of those weirdos who can’t shut up about your Gor fetish.

      I’d be happy with more sensuality in fiction and cinema. But the the plastic horniness and coercive/exploitative/violent presentation of what we get fucking sucks and I hate it.

      Is it such a big ask for visibly adult women to be horny and have fun with their bodies (or perish the thought, men too)? Does it always have to be “NYAAAAAH YOU SAW MY PANTIES SENPAI” or (insert movie trailer dry humping against wall here) or awooga libertarian-alert hypersus Gambo shit?

        Right? It’s awful. Browse through one of those sites that collects nude scenes in movies and compare how often nudity is used in a scene that is positive and joyful compared to how often it’s used for shame, humiliation, violence, weakness.

        I think the simple fact that hollywood cannot and will not show an erect penis, ever, is incredibly damning. It’s such a banal, innocuous thing, but somehow it’s utterly taboo to show a straightforward, visible sign of arousal and excitement during a sex scene!

        Even when the characters are having a good time, you rarely see any intimacy. The characters don’t smile at each other, giggle, play with each other’s hair, pause just to be present. It’s so often this incredibly rigid formula, a performance of a performance of a performance of sex.

        I’ve heard a rumor that the mpaa will deny a rating to any movie where someone 1.) Goes down on a woman for more than six seconds and 2.) The woman is obvious having a good time.

        Like we have a cultural supreme court that exists specifically to prevent media depictions of sex from being too happy, too loving, too full of wonder and joy and life. Idk if the rumor is true but it sure as hell feels true.

        Because hetero women having sexual desires they need fulfilled implies that men have to step up and actually care about fulfilling a woman’s needs, and that’s too intimidating/selfless for these dorks. So instead we get either “I’m not that kind of girl!” or sex being purely a social leveraging tool for women.

          I think that’s a huge part of it.

          Contemporary hogs, from otaku/weebs to boomers, are put off or even afraid of women wanting sex rather than sex being something “earned” by men (in some transactional way that isn’t actually about making the woman happy) or something women are tricked into, or worse.

            I remember talking with a boomer family member, and he sort of timidly revealed that he thought most of the women he’d slept with didn’t think they were allowed to enjoy sex or relax. He didn’t know what to do with that and clearly found it unsettling. Like, even if they knew the problem was there, what tools did they even have surrounded by that society?

            And some days it feels like we’re headed back there with the recent manifestations of neo-puritanism clawing back at gains made over decades where women are finally allowed to be horny, to enjoy sex, and to demand good sex.

              We’re experiencing a hellish hybrid of puritanism and coarse hedonism where sex is a guilty shameful thing that is supposed to be indulged in in goon caves and even in fictional presentations is something to be coerced out of feeemales because it’d be too scary for women to openly want sex.

                Right? Sex is forbidden, but if it’s allowed it has to be violent, shameful, bad, mechanical, or all four. You can fuck but you’re not allowed to let anyone see you enjoy fucking.

                  Most of these were ways to get around the Hayes code when showing sex (or queer people just existing) for decades, and it shapes how Hollywood makes movies until this day because art under capitalism is believed to have to stick to conventions to work as a commodity and Hollywood is particularly bad in that regard.

          Many such cases.

          One former Hexbear had a meltdown once by declaring and doubling down on all western animation being “for babies,” direct quote, and of course that user had an anime waifu avatar. I tried to argue, but then what I got back was “oh by all means UlyssesT tell us how much you like Dragon Tales too.”

            Shit I saw some people talk about they wish it was like the older days with more sex scenes etc but there are reasons why nowadays there are intimacy coordinators on the set. Not even against the scenes but I read that sex scenes declined by a large margin 40% or so… I imagine part of the reason is that several actors/actresses may or may not be comfortable with such scenes. Add while art can take you out of your comfort zone Idk

              Sometimes the coerced abuse is right on set with everyone watching, using contractual bullying or the like to distress the actor. Emilia Clarke had to go through that on the Gambo show, the distress on her face was real during those early awooga libertarian-alert hypersus scenes, and the trust fund hogs running the show got so mad when she renogotiated her contract that they eventually character assassinated her in a sort of literal “assassinate the character after cheapening the arc of a SV victim” way.

              I fucking hate that show so much and anyone talking about how “sexy” it was is deeply sus to me.

                  She was coerced into her early scenes by contractual obligation and the hogs were oinking because of her visible distress, including on set.

                  I think the expanded use of intimacy coordinators are a post-Gambo consequence, though the actual trust fund hogs that pushed Emilia Clarke into that didn’t get punished in any way because rich cishet white men.

          Like I’m not gonna front. I’m a grown ass them; I have no issue with sexuality, even to a raunchy, near-pornographic degree involved in artistic pursuits. Some of my favorite fictional novel series are two steps from being straight-up erotica if not for the not sexually-related issues of the overarching plots they have; we don’t do that Tipper Gore shit here.

          But I would never let a conservative, a republican, an alt-righter, or what have you, anywhere near a pen or keyboard for it.

    Thank you very much. I’m just trying to rid the world of all these fevered egos that are tainting our collective unconscious… and making us pay a higher psychic price than we imagine. In fact, that’s how I pitched it to the networks exactly. I said, uh, “I’d like to do a show where I rid the world of all these fevered egos that are tainting our collective unconscious.” And the guy at CBS said, “Will there be titty?” And, uh… I said, “Sure, I don’t know, sure.” Boom! A check falls in my lap and, uh… I’m a producer. I never knew it was that easy. All these years I’ve been trying to write scripts and characters and plots and stories that had meaning. “Will there be titty?” “Sure.” Boom! I’m a… I’m a producer now. “Where have you been all our lives, boy? We’ve been looking for you in Hollywood. What are these titties gonna do?” “…jiggle?” “You’re a fucking genius. Give him another check! I can’t write enough checks for you. You’ve answered our prayers in Hollywood. Jiggling titties, you woulda thunk of it?”

      Word. We’re right back to simulation and simulacra. Does someone actually carry a raw storm of deific sexual energy wherever they go, or have they been clad in hollow symbols of sexuality that were once daring, titilating, challenging, but are now empty of all that?

      It’s why I like the red carpet trend of sheer tops where your nipples can be seen so much. Its actually someone risque and confrontational after decades of barely there might as well be lingerie red carpet dresses. There’s actually still something transgressive about your nipples being visible in public and peopleare actually playing with norms and expectations again, just a little bit. I’m hoping we get a trend towards, like, super baroque elaborate embroidered gowns but oh look, there’s a nipple! Because the contrast between highly ornate, complex clothes and “nudity” would be delightful.
