Yeah, I have to admit that I wonder the same thing occasionally, then I watched this interview...and thought, oh okay, I wasn't wrong.
Oh sweet summer child. Nobody's drawn explicit sex before. Uh-huh. Riiiiight. Not like there are fucking cave paintings of it or anything...
Exactly. Although maybe they haven't quite done it in that style before? (At least I don't think My Little Pony had any sex in it?)
It blew my mind that the only time they spoke outside of email was to discuss the sex scene. And Whedon made a point of wanting to do it - because he felt it would break boundaries and be something no one had done. To actually show it, not refer to it.
Seriously, Whedon? Everything has been done before.
