Look, I'm just some boring ace girl who happily lives with her ace girlfriend in our sex less lives. And sure we can appreciate a tasteful sex scene if it serves the plot.

But GAWD, so much media is horny on main.

if it serves the plot

To be perfectly honest, I can't think of a single movie right now where this would even apply. The movies I can think of wouldn't exactly change much if those scenes were removed ...

On a semi-related note, I am personally also sick of romance being shoehorned into movies where it doesn't belong, doesn't further the plot, or even outright takes away from the main story. WTF was Tauriel doing in "the Hobbit" for example? The literally only point she served was being a flick for one of the less important dwarves, and they knew each other for maybe like six hours of which said dwarf was unconscious for at least four of them. But sure, let's call it True Love™ and shove it into a movie that's already nearly 3 hours long. sigh

I have nothing against romance in movies in general - but it needs to actually fit the narrative at least.

It served the plot in episode 1 of Game of Thrones, but it certainly wasn't tasteful.
