I just want to see good writing and actual chemistry on screen, be it platonic or romantic. Show however much you want, but make the moments charged, make us care for the characters and their relationships.

And don’t break couples up because you don’t know how to write happy couples.

Grey’s Anatomy writers ready to come for you for this slanderous attack on them.

I think these kids have probably been exposed to porn with and without seeking it out which makes them less interested in sex in media.

not sure how old you are, but I'm 33 and the only reason I ever saw stuff like that was because my parents had cable lol. I don't remember anything like that ever being on broadcast tv! so not only would you have to have cable to see those things, but you'd have to have access to a tv that was relatively private. as opposed to now, most kids have a cell phone at a young age that has internet access, plus it's way more likely most (if not all) of their peers have that same access.
