Exactly right. One of the more important points, I think, is that until our medium can include sex (and the intimacy and relationships that go with it!) in a meaningful way, people aren't going to take Gaming seriously. Sexual content is not inherently pornographic. An astounding number of people need to learn that.
The solution is honestly very simple, but for game developers it's an impossible task at the rate they're going. Games need to stop being produced with blatant cleavage, skimpy outfits and pointless easter eggs meant solely as a fan service to those who have no intention of seeking out a real girl in the real world.
Sex is not something that should be censored to the point that it's not allowed to show it's pretty face out in the open, while I understand we have to censor it to a point so that mindless little children with irresponsible parents cannot get their hands on these kinds of games. But honestly, I and I'm sure millions and millions of other people in this "immature world" are sick and tired of people (overzealous parents and the government) treating the video game industry like it's their slave and censoring games left and right.
Honestly, sex is a natural thing, it should be allowed to be portrayed in its natural state. If game developers can produce a natural kind of sexual content and avoid the "little too graphic" kind of sexual content and the cheap shots of breasts every other full body shot...there might be games out there that tell the full story of a developing relationship the way it's supposed to be told, not the typical "boy meets girl, boy talks to girl--SEX!!!"
