Where Have All the Sex Scenes Gone?

Increasingly in Hollywood, the creative assets for movies are being produced before the scripts are even written. So e.g. for a movie that they know will have a fight scene, they just go in and capture a bunch of different sequences with different outcomes. Anyway it could be kind of weird to have the same done with sex scenes.

This is not true, the affinity of latest generations for postmodern asexuality is a preference, not catechism

Don’t need to catch a steamy scene from film when we have the internet full of pornography on demand.

Whereas pornography is mostly prurient, sex and nudity in film has a useful effect on tone and pace in narrative.

As we know, people are increasingly having less sex in front of cameras.
