Civilization is not going up in flames because a 13 year old closes their eyes during the naughty bits. And its not going to traumatize and abuse you if you catch something naughty on TV. Again, everyone needs to shut up!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13372093.post-55067532669919147312023-02-14T18:47:13.782-05:002023-02-14T18:47:13.782-05:00The sex scene discourse on Twitter has been utterl...The sex scene discourse on Twitter has been utterly DERANGED. I saw "the fictional characters didn't consent to being viewed by the audience" which is an interesting opening into the whole theoretical concept of fiction, visual depiction, etc. ...but only at the level of pure philosophy or maybe psychological case history.<br /><br />"Consent" seems ripe to join "grooming", if it hasn't already, as specialized language from relatively niche (often ostensibly leftist/progressive) contexts getting picked up by the right -- concepts which they don't really understand and would decry as "woke" (another example, of course) in their original contexts, but seize on and appropriate to further their usual cultural grievances while serving the dual purpose of watering down any power to combat sexual abuse, etc. that the words may originally have had.<br /><br />Of course actors should not do things that make them uncomfortable (not all actors can or should do everything! Let them find their lanes and stay there!) but I would love someone to ask Penn Badgley why fake-intimacy is different to him than fake-murdering all those people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
