From TV shows such as Sex and the City and Game of Thrones to films including Basic Instinct and Call Me By Your Name, many of screen’s greatest hits are known for their steamy sex scenes. A new report , however, has found that this might not be the case for long. According to the annual Teens and Screens report – which surveys 1,500 people aged 10 to 24 – gen Z want to see way less sex and trauma depicted onscreen.
Instead, they want more emphasis on self-love and friendships. Their preference is to watch “lives like (their) own”, as well as “authenticity” rather than romance and sex, which respondents believe is excessively prevalent in TV shows and movies.
