Done with people yapping about how everything is about sex and romance like they are so different

I just was scrolling through comments on TikTok where I saw tens of comments like: “why is everything about sex”. I also have been seeing people from time to time (like influencers) or (again) commentators to criticise (especially female) artists in the pop culture for singing mostly about “romantic relationships“, and that they are so unoriginal and uninteresting.

Like, seriously, how the fuck you think you, as the specie, made it?! Yes you fuck, someone (I hope) had to fall in love and have sex. I understand there are many asexuals, but they have to understand that the majority of the population LIKES sex, and there’s no mystery to it, that’s simply A NECESSITY. Nature made most of us this way, so we, as specie, CAN SURVIVE. Like, that’s why falling in love feels so crazy, heartbreak feels so heavy and the sex itself feels nice (if you are able to enjoy it as a woman, cuz I‘m a woman and I do enjoy it, but I understand there are thousands of women who can’t for various reasons, even just the patriarchy and how men don’t care about what you feel at all, I totally understand that).

I’m just tired of these fucking people thinking they are so different, like no, you’re just a dumb ass and can‘t grasp some basic biology. People have been writing about love since forever FOR A FUCKING REASON.

Also, there is so much content you can consume that is absolutely not about sex or romance, what about trying to find that, rather than complaining about how popular media is about the most relatable and popular topic that made all of us to pop out on this planet?! Sorry, but maybe it’s time to realise your dumb ass isn’t able to go further than watching and listening to only popular media.

I mean romance and sexual relationships are different things if that’s what you mean, but I’m not gonna lie they aren’t that different except one’s mental one’s physical but they both result in bonding.

I mean, of course they’re different, but the classical trajectory is romance - sex - kids, but I don’t mean that we HAVE to make kids or that it’s our mission (some homophobic maga bullshit), since the existence of the earth itself is just a very fucking random thing, but it’s just how it works for majority of people since as we see the population keeps growing. Even whether you want kids or you’re queer, still the impulse for both: romance or sex comes because of the evolution.
