Thread: Too much empathesis on sex

In Hollywood, there is way too much positve and cooky views on sex. They believe that sex sells. It may sell, but it makes me want to violently vomit. It needs to stop. And you never notice that people have sex in the movies and hardly anyone gets pregnant. How realistic is that?

Unfortunately sex does sell, its kinda a double standard. In one end in a guys perceptive, I love looking at beautiful girls, men are physical beings we like to look that's how we judge things ;) On the other hand its not fair to give someone who may not have the looks, but has the same or even more talent the same oppourtunity. So really how do we win?

birth control easily prevent pregnancy ( & disease ).

sex IS a positive thing.

Of course, it can be ruined & demeaned.

All the murder and rape and the Sherlock Holmes policemen on TV( CSI, CSI Miami, Bones, Law and Order, The Fringe, etc, etc, etc,...ad nauseam ...) bother me a great deal more than sex in the movies.

If it fits with the storyline then I think anything can be included. Sex and violence are part of society and if these are required to tell a story then they belong their. However if sex and naked women are only there to sell movies then those directors/writers/producers ect should not be making movies. Whats missing is artistic expression, instead we have scenes with sex and violence just for the sake of it.
Bring back the days of a logical plot and solid characters for me the worst thing that can happen to a movie is illogical outcomes and predictability.

Agreed, If it's necessary for the story It should be there. When it's blatantly obvious there as filler for ratings I become disinterested.

I'm going to make a big assumption here based solely on the commercials I saw for a show. The commercials caused me to completely avoid this show for this reason. So any fans out there, don't completely freak out on me.

Dollhouse on fox seemed to be completely geared to draw an audience through sex. House full of Hot robot chicks. I've been told it's actually a decent show but I won't give it a chance because of this.

Yep, Sex sells unfortunately. I don't have problems with sex in movies. I just got problems with sex crimes (ex. rape) movies. I turn to japanese porn for that. LOL

i think our society in general puts too much an emphasis on sex. Yes sex does sell but when hollywood becomes oversaturated with everything having an emphasis on sex, then sex becomes devalued. Plus im sick of all this shitty movies out there that only focus on sex and have the stupidest plot lines( Miss March, Road Trip 2: Beer Pong, all the new american pie and van wilder movies,) Like Transformers 2 for example, the story line was stupid, the movie was way too long and was basically made for us to check out Megan Fox and some other hot college girl/alien robot. Having sex in a movie doesnt equate to a good movie.

in Movies , unfortunately Sex makes more money so that producers could be happy for earning more and more of Money , and sometimes the movie story needs a sex view to complete the whole meaning of the Movie

no body got pregnant because of birth control of course , but for me , I don't like sex in movies but many Other people like it and that's why it exsists

sex definitely sells unfortunately..the more the exposure , the more the bombshells ...the more the publicity and the more the business develops....ofc this is a media enterprise ...a business.. it wont stop ...sad but..it would NOT stop
