You definitely haven't been paying attention to blockbusters and TV shows over the past decade or so have you?

They have become remarkably sexless, practically no titillation to be found anywhere

Probably depends on how one defines "blockbuster"...

Yes, the highest-grossing movies (Marvel, etc) tend to be mostly sexless (aside from tight-fitting costumes and dirty jokes).

But, there are always plenty of critically acclaimed Hollywood movies with lots of sex. Poor Things being a recent example.

Movies that everyone sees that penetrate the public consciousness

> there are always plenty of critically acclaimed Hollywood movies

Movies that only critics see or care about are not blockbusters

I was going to say that. Also other US stuff I see: a lot of pointless sex and nudity.

<cough> Game of Thrones... the hollywood idea of a "mature" series.
