    I’d be down with more intimacy and romance and consensual sex scenes between adults enjoying it.

    The outlet of P R E S T I G E T V being as violent and edgy a spectacle as possible is a sort of puritianism with extra steps; it’s saying that if there’s sex it may as well be as violent as possible.

      It’s a continuation of having sex scenes in old horror movies so people could be titillated by the sex, then, idk, have their god bothering reaffirmed when the monster murders the teen sex havers.

      It’s the justification of Puritanism. Gotta be pure or you’re a god less sinner with no control
