Yeah, I've seen research that a lot of young people say they aren't interested in seeing sex in movies and TV.

And yet there's all this explicit sex on TV.

So what do you think audiences want right now?

Yeah, I mean, it's so interesting because I think of Bridgerton 2 and when it first came out, everyone was like, oh my gosh, these scenes are so steamy.

What is going on?

I burn for you.

went and it's like just sex positions i've still not seen on tv over here on the explain it to me team we're like kind of obsessed with heated rivalry and he wrote a piece for the cut called help i'm obsessed with gay hockey smut so um i feel like you are one of us what do you make of its success

Well, maybe I should hit up my local library.

One thing I do wonder, because, you know, I'm a straight lady and I enjoy the series a lot.

Like, I love love.

I love the story.

Like, it's just really nice to see.

I think there was also a moment, and maybe this is too spoilery, but I think whenever I see a love story, it involves marginalized people.

I'm like, oh, God, when is the hate crime coming?

When is the bad thing happening?

When is the...

and it doesn't and that's admittedly really nice but what is it like I wonder like how it feels that so many straight women are like and I love this too like is that strange or weird at all or is it like okay

Coming up, the anatomy of a sex scene.

This is Explain It To Me.
