When watching a movie, I cringe more at

@psychictides
People making love.
Like… why are they carrying on while I'm looking, are they into this sort of thing? Am I? 🤔

@m0xee Very yes. A little kisseyface is fine but once it drags on for too long it’s just weird! Unless the details of the act of sex is part of the plot, it’s not needed and a distraction. ‪¯\_(ツ)_/¯‬

@psychictides Exactly! I'm used to seeing people hugging and kissing. At a party with friends and they might get cuddly, but if they want more, they usually get a room, and I'm not used to walking around and peeking into others' bedrooms. Even when it's a part of the plot the immersion subsides for me in a way — maybe I should walk outside and let them have the room? Unless it's a VERY important plot point, a hint at this is enough, but especially in 90-ies movies these scenes are often too long

@psychictides Mind you, I don't think that having sex is something to be ashamed of, but just watching it, when you're not part of it feels weird 😅
