Everyone's thinking the same thing about the sex scenes in "Bridgerton" season 2

When it first came out at the end of 2020, Netflix show Bridgerton became known for its frequent and raunchy sex scenes — aside from the captivating Regency-era storyline, of course.

Season 2 of the Shondaland-Netflix production has been received very well, and social media is abuzz with all the new stories in it. The newly introduced Sharmas put South Asian representation front-and-centre on the show, centralizing the romance between Kate Sharma (Simone Ashley) and Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey); the duo is affectionately called “Kanthony” by fans.

But even though the sexual chemistry between the two has the internet uncomfortably hot and heavy, there are way fewer sex scenes compared to the first season. And trust us, people are noticing.

Some viewers think it’s so squeaky clean, you could watch it at church.

Not nearly enough porn in the second season of bridgerton

Others believe this is a good thing, and are finding the new season’s story to be better than the romp festival in the first installment.

I agree with you. Don’t get me wrong, I love a good sex romp series but this explored different emotions which I found more satisfying.

People who think bridgerton season 1 was better than season 2 what the hell is wrong with y’all
Season 1 was just soft porn
Season 2 is much more spicy

Many agree that the writing this season was tighter than before, with romantic dialogues especially crafted more delicately.

The speeches this season of bridgerton were like fucking shakespearean, every time anthony opens his mouth I am blown away

Notably, Anthony professing his love for Kate in a particular line really tugged at the heartstrings of hopeless romantics everywhere. “I burn for you,” he says. “You are the bane of my existence and the object of all my desires.”

anthony bridgerton said “i am not a man of poetry” and then turned around and delivered “you’re the bane of my existence and the object of all my desires” so now i refuse to settle for less thank u pic.twitter.com/DEmZhtWpNS

“I’ve never heard so much yearning on TV!” said one Twitter user.

the reason why “do you think there is a corner of this earth that you could travel to far away enough to free me from this torment” and “you are the bane of my existence and the object of all my desires” hit me so hard is bc i’ve never HEARD so much yearning on TV! +#Bridgerton

So while we can all acknowledge that there aren’t many sex scenes in this season compared to the former one, it is is setting a whole new standard for verbal romance.
