Consider differences between places as well as between decades. Latin America has conservative sexual mores and mainstream TV over here is very horny. And Japan is, well, Japan.

Agnostic has a blog post where he confirms that American media was most sexualized in the 80s iirc and has declined since then. I mean, still high globally speaking, just not like the 70s and 80s

extreme smolder here and there isn't nearly as bad as the relatively anesthetized, though still hardcore, sex and porn everywhere. for one thing, it's easier to gatekeep and cordon off content when the volume is lower and/or concentrated

Can you give an example of extremely horny old stuff? Feels like if media has become less horny, that’s more so because of sex positivity and the sex education movement A good example of this is the actual show sex education, which has loads of sex but is not smoldering

Examples of extremely nonsexy current thing with lots of sex are game of thrones, big mouth Sexier old things: ads (there's one elsewhere in this thread), og Wonder Woman, the val kilmer romantic tension in Willow of all things

Another factor at play in many cases is the fact that the ability to be more explicit, especially when you can go full HBO, removes an artistic obstacle; "censorship is the mother of metaphor" etc.
