idle thought #586

I will also like to note that (not that I can write them) but sex scenes also often serve an important function of being a character study. It shows them vulnerable, it shows how they connect to each other, it moves their character arcs along, what the blank do you mean it’s just there to be “porn” and “titillate the audience”? (Although maybe this also dovetails into the hatred Hollywood’s had for character arcs for a bit. I blame Whedon, specifically his work on the Avengers, although his other shows tend to be pretty early Star Trek episodic, too.) Even if I can’t exactly write them, I do allude to them in my various stories because they are natural and important, and not all characters are or should be asexual. (I swear capitalism is trying to turn us all into robots.)
