New Hollywood Chaos: No More Sex Scenes Is the Last Straw
The phrase “let’s talk about sex!” has never been more annoying after a week of discourse about why intimate scenes and nudity should be removed from TV shows and movies. @kpfallon writes on Penn Badgley's comments about "You" for @beastobsessed https://t.co/gVEWelIRnK

Kevin Fallon looks into how Penn's personal decicion to not do sex scenes led to a wide discussion on the value of sex scenes and nudity in general
Media is a sex less as it has been since the Hays code yet people still want less
Making the discourse more confusing are multiple arguments going on at once
- that non-consensual sex acts in media makes viewers confused about what consent is
- the viewers don't give their consent to watch sex scenes
- that the characters can't give their consent since they are not real (?)
- that sex scenes are not vital to storytelling (Fallon thinks they are when done right)
