I’ve been thinking about the place of real sex on fictional movies, such as lust and caution dont really have a consensus about it yet

I also think part of the uncomfortable feeling that comes from watching sex scenes is shame from actually enjoying them sometimes.

Are you familiar with Japanese pink films? They made me reevaluate the relationship between film and sex, and the sphere itself is very interesting!
