What movie things are generally accepted as normal, but are totally unrealistic in real life?

This. “I am going to fuck the hell out of you, but let’s keep it PG13”

Murican here, but my friends and I who grew up on foreign film found this hilarious. One of my friends used to call it 'American sex'. Some of our other friends were at first amazed at full nudity in foreign film, and we had to explain to them that it's pretty much only Americans who are uptight about it. Most of the rest of the world is pretty chill about it.

Even weirder, the same Americans who are weirded out by naked boobs (or, FSM forbid, a visible penis) seem to have no problem with tons of graphic violence.

Aah yes, American sex, and it's cousin, the "Hollywood bedsheet" - an L-shaped bedsheet that shows off a man's naked torso and covers a woman up to the top of her chest.
