Yeah, there was a LOT of sexual... uh... I don't know WHAT was going on, really, but it was like all sex was either nasty and full of slut-shaming, or... didn't really exist because it was just two idiots failing to kiss? Which is a lot like the purity culture thing that's been poisoning fandom more obviously in the past several years, come to think of it.

If this was an attempt to mirror that and show it as a terrible attitude, then I think it was a failed experiment since in practice it just makes the reading experience unpleasant and comes off as Hussie's own attitude. Particularly since it infests both timelines regardless of who's narrating.

(Like, Calliope's narration of John and Terezi's car tryst in the meat timeline is actually pretty sweet, but the candy timeline, which is notionally under her control, is even worse in terms of terrible attitudes toward and descriptions of sex and sex-adjacent stuff. *sigh*)
