Maybe it goes the other way.... The fact that there is a housing crisis is the direct result of unnecessary sex scenes in movies. If they didn't put those scenes in, there would be less people clamouring to move out of their parents house, thus lowering the demand for housing.

We need a politician to run on this platform!

Nah, it's the corporations buying up all the housing to sell for rentals or airbnbs that is causing the housing crisis, not awkward sex scenes.

No, just pointing out the real reason so the humor is more obvious.

It's a self regulating problem really if you think about it.

If filmmakers adjust the amount of unnecessary sex scenes depending on how many people live with their parents, then it's what ecologists would call a negative feedback loop.
