Why Gen Z’s turned off by sex scenes in movies

Nearly half of Gen Z-ers (43%) admit to turning off a movie after encountering a sex scene — more than any other generation. That’s according to a spicy new survey of 2,000 Americans, conducted by Talker Research, which found that 33% of all those polled have stopped watching a movie during a sex scene. Millennials were the least likely generation to let a sex scene get in the way of finishing the movie (26%). Younger Americans and their tolerance of nudity and sex scenes in films has been a hot topic of discussion lately, and a recent study by The Economist found that nudity and sex scenes has dipped by nearly 40% since the year 2000.
