#WritingWonders day 16: How comfortable are you with writing intimacy?
I purposely tore the bandage off all at once with WWG. I've always hated the rating dichotomy between sex (gets you an NC-17 rating) and violence (killing people? oh, sure, it's a kid's movie, right??). I mean, there are reasons to curtail portrayals of intimacy...and a lot of them can be traced back to rapist/incestuous authority figures wanting to stay hidden.
So I push through the discomfort to help normalize sex. (1/2)
