And yet generally they’re romance scenes and not scenes involving lust or rape.

I am not the one saying it. Hollywood is.

No you are speaking from a specific point.

Poor things had lots of sex, not about love or romance.

Teeth, is rape.

Even Pretty Woman has a sex scene that is about the lust of the main character with no kissing to show it.
There are plenty of examples to prove you wrong as much as you have examples of your point.

You are the one saying it cause you are making a broad statement from your perspective ignoring all that doesn’t fit into it. It doesnt make you right to selectively pick your examples because it’s the ones you think of and have a problem with you try to apply to the rest of it.

You listed two indie movies that were not made within the Hollywood system and one example from 1990.

Are you really going to use those to claim that most sex scenes in Hollywood movies and TVs are not about romance?

Poor Things I watched in an AMC, fuck off with that.

You provided no examples and I provided multiple that are big films that played for massive audiences that sex is used for multiple reasons and not singulary one and gratuitous.

I am not going to list 20 films cause you would deny them just as easily from your place of predetermined correctness.
