An article from The Guardian. I thought it was interesting. The US is so schizophrenic about sex in TV and movies.

Agree.  Sex is part of life, and has been celebrated throughout history.  It's really only since Queen Victoria (1819-1901)—the stuck-up prude—that sex became hidden and not talked about.

Which is hugely hypocritical.  Sex funded the internet, something like 30% of its traffic is porn. People don't talk about it, but they sure seek it out.

The author of this article doesn't even mention any of the movies I consider paeans to the beauty of physical love: Romeo and Juliet. Blue is the Warmest Color. Lie With Me. A Man and a Woman. Blame It On Rio. 9-1/2 Weeks. What? Up In The Air. Fifty Shades of Grey. And many others....

I've mentioned before the incredible myopia of nobody ever needing to go to the bathroom on TV or in the movies.  That's universal too. Why all the shame?
