Talk:Sex comedy

message: What's the purpose of this article? Is this supposed to refer to comedies like American Pie and Sex is Zero, or to porn-comedies such as the Danish "Tegn"(zodiak)-movies. 惑乱 分からん 13:20, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Two years later... this question still hasn't been answered. This article is mainly written about British sex comedies of the 1960s-70s (e.g. the Carry On films), with a brief section about Israeli sex comedies, but has no mention of Hollywood films like American Pie, which seems a pretty major omission. It should be expanded to cover the American 'college sex comedy' genre - unless such films have their own page elsewhere? Robofish (talk) 17:56, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

message: Would it be worth splitting this article into British sex comedies and Israeli sex comedies? Vizjim (talk) 00:02, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: After four years it would probably be best to blank it, and replace it with an article that starts with Thomas Rowlandson and William Hogarth, then moves on to the impact of Mae West in the 1930s, then the Hays Code backlash, then the boundary-pushing Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex* (*But Were Afraid to Ask) and Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice in the late 60s / early 70s, with a paragraph in the middle along the lines of e.g. "during the 1970s the British film industry also produced a number of sex comedies, including EXAMPLE and the more ribald EXAMPLE. Israel's EXAMPLE was that country's top-grossing film of YEAR, and the genre was also popular in Denmark and EXAMPLE. Elements of the sex comedy genre also appeared in EXAMPLE". Then the article would explain that the sex comedy was killed off in the 1980s by Reagan, Thatcher, and the Moral Majority, and then the article would move on to American Pie and its heirs which were no doubt a backlash against George W Bush. Thus into the modern era. See also: "sex horror" films such as Hostel, gross-out films such as There's Something About Mary. That's how I would write the article if I was doing so in a professional capacity and had a tonne of time and a big bag of cocaine and £450. There is space for a thorough article about the mid-70s British sex comedy, but on this evidence it's not going to happen unless Empire or Sight & Sound does a major retrospective of the genre, bringing in a new generation of editors. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 17:13, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

message: The article is too narrowly defined. For instance, "sex comedy" is sometimes applied to certain of Shakespeare's comedies: see these examples from university presses. See too the diverse results here, also from university presses. The term seems to be used for theatre as well as cinema, and maybe TV. Cynwolfe (talk) 16:22, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. The article reads like OR to me. The inline citations only seem to support some finer points about British films. Even within an Anglocentric context, equating the relatively general term sex comedy with such a specific film style and era  is arbitrary. The term can certainly encompass TV productions as well (e.g., Goodnight Sweetheart). Ringbang (talk) 02:06, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  scope 

message: As if Brits were the only ones interested in sex, or comedy. How else classify Goodbye Charlie, or Move Over Darling?
Further, where does a sex comedy leave off, and a bedroom farce begin?
C+. Must try harder.

message: Oruchuban Ebichu is slice-of-life show of Ebichu, a hamster-maid and her perspective of her master's life, mainly her sex life. There are many sexual innuendos and a lot of animated sex and nudity. Proposal to add this to the article.

replies: text: I have no idea about the classic films. I have seen the 2007 film several times. The main protagonist starts wearing sexier clothes after a make-over, the members of the Posh Totty clique flaunt their sexuality, and one of them mentions having a boyfriend from Ouagadougou. Otherwise there is little to no sexual content. The main plot of the film concerns the girls stealing a valuable painting from an art gallery, and then returning it for a reward.
