    I dont see a sex scene being needed.

    What does a sex scene add to the story that can’t be conveyed other ways?

      It’s not just a sex scene, the headline is misleading. They’ve totally cut out the relationship, this is straight-washing.

        They’re literally showing what looks like a blossoming relationship, including her ex being “ok” with it… They had the homophobe get called out and attacked for not being accepting of it… I don’t get how this is “Straight-washing” here. I agree there’s no need for a sex scene. Isn’t the romantic/love aspect what matters?

      Did you read the article? It genuinely did add to it in that it provided a level of normalcy and calm to an otherwise violent story and showed their chemistry/connection.
