2015: Year Of Strap-On Sex

2015 is the year of the strap-on dildo, and Netflix is leading the way. Both “Sense8” and “Orange/Black” have women engaging in strap-on sex. Margaret Lyons of Vulture comments: ‘It’s not that 2015 is the first time there have been strap-ons on TV. That honor goes to I Love Lucy — no, I kid, my research suggests it was an episode of HBO’s ’90s documentary series Real Sex. And pegging has appeared here and there, though generally as a reference or allusion, and less frequently as an onscreen sex act. But compared to sex scenes of yore, the strap-on scenes of 2015 are notable for their de-sensationalizing of one of the ways people have sex with one another.’
