list of questions about the world where single people can't have sex. keeping this in mind:
why are gay people still cool to have extra-marital sex? is this homophobic somehow?
is this like. Birthing thing? like we don't want unwed parents? how would that then work if someone is trans, having sex with someone of the same gender identity of them, but with different reproductive organs? is that not allowed? is that transphobic??
no, but really, why?
why the Purge-like One Night A Year that it's allowed? like... does this help ensure compliance?
is divorce more common because people are rushing into marriages just to have sex, or less common because if you leave our partner you can't have sex anymore? are there people who treat getting married like regular dating?
HOW DOES THE MAGIC TATTOO WORK?
teenagers do have sex sometimes. this implies you can have pre-marital sex completely legally if it's before 18. HOW is the "you can't have sex unless you're married or we will ARREST you" world FAILING to prevent teen pregnancy still????
who is Will Gluck and why did he go from Easy A to Peter Rabbit to this?
why would you craft a world like this just to refuse to engage with it meaningfully? The PURGE engaged with its premise meaningfully. The fucking BINGE movie with Skyler Gisondo and Eduardo Franco had a more logical premise than this
there's so much you can do to explore why a fascist government would be THIS in people's sexual business. IT ACTUALLY HAS REAL WORLD APPLICATION!!! (except, in the real world, no WAY they'd let the gay people slide <3) why are we not DOING ANYTHING???
tbh, when I first heard about this I thought it was no one--married or not--could have sex except the one day a year and I think having it be a blanket rule that applies to everyone is actually a LOT fucking simpler
can you imagine living in this world and your friend is married like "yeah. I have sex EVERY DAY. EVERY DAY I'm riding that dick. oh, but right. you can't. because you'd go to jail". I'd murder them
