The problem with horny media is nearly always a quality problem, not a content problem.
Too many shows use fanservice as a crutch to boost up a painfully mediocre plot or character.
And as I grew older, I just find it distasteful. Also, not into children or children looking characters.
Seconded! I'd feel much better about fanservice in my anime if the characters were at least in their 20s.
Exactly. Kill la Kill is great not because it's horny, but because of everything else. Fanservice is just a candywrap. And when you have a candywrap without the actual candy (as with a lot of shows today), it fucking sucks.
