Reply to comment by Interactive_CD-ROM in White Lotus Season 2 by spectacleskeptic

The adultery is clearly viewed in a negative light. It isn’t depicted in a sexy way at all but a critical one.

I suppose that is true

Maybe it’s the way they portray the characters doing the cheating, like if course they have to be overtly sexual and ridiculously attractive.

I mean, I get it, but I also think it’s just like… idk, trying to fulfill the viewer’s dream of hooking up with someone super hot? Like romanticizes the idea? I wish there were more straight men (in the acting sense) to relate to. Give me a normal human being, I suppose.

I don’t care all that much. I do like the show, I think I just need to see a therapist lmao

I did not, but that is interesting having read that comment chain (I have no problem with spoilers hehe). I haven't watched that one yet, but the way it sounds and from what was said in the episode before we kind of knew she cheated on him as well. It's clear that relationship is toxic and the "intimacy and closeness" they have is completely fake.
