ugh, 'growing up' doesn't mean 'no sex please',
growing up is understanding how complex narratives about the human experience sometimes include a sexual nature, and that some people just enjoy that aspect in general and that's okay.
I don't know if this an American puritanism revival thing or what, but it's odd to see the absolute rejection under the banner of i guess "that's just for kids"?
Sex-negative mindsets are dumb. It's a core functionality of our nature. People mistook modesty for anti-sex and here we are.
How is it shoved in someone's face when it can be easily avoided? Turn off nudity and avoid making horny comments to the companions. The game is just a reflection of the players actions. The article is literally projecting their own hangups with themselves.
