Film only has itself to blame really. With the death of midbudget movies, you don't get enjoyable eroticism or romance centric movies anymore. Indie and foreign cinema used to also be good sources for erotic drama, especially queer stories. Sex and sensuality are languages, and they can be used to tell a good story.

But we don't tell good stories in film anymore, not with sensuality or action or suspense or anything else. We get sold "marketable" stories now. Bland CGI action disconnected from any character scenes. Bland heterosexual relationships culminating with boring sex. Flat framed characters standing in front of a greenscreen "acting" at a tennis ball that will be replaced with the villain later.
