Is Netflix Normalizing Pornography with Shows Like "Supersex"?

The NY Post runs this headline: Netflix subscribers ‘sickened’ by X-rated ‘Supersex’ series: ‘Are we just making porn mainstream now?’

According to the Post story, The Rocco biopic "Supersex” has been slammed on social media for being extra explicit, with subscribers promising to cancel their subscriptions.

The show is loosely based on the life of Rocco Siffredi, a famous porn star known as the “Italian Stallion.”

But subscribers were less than impressed when Netflix posted an excerpt of the erotic offering on its US Instagram account on Mar. 7, before it was mysteriously deleted.

Screenshots obtained by the Daily Mail show furious commenters blasting the streamer for promoting the series.

“Are we just making porn mainstream now? It’s pretty sickening that there is no warning on explicit content like this,” one raged.

“Now we have porn on Netflix as well? Cancelling account while we speak, my kids can’t see this,” a second user commented.

Another person chimed in: “Isn’t this inappropriate for a platform where KIDS FOLLOW YOU?!”

“It’s really sad that this is accepted in modern culture. The hyper-sexualization of our society and generation is depressing and degrading to the value of both genders,” a fourth railed.

Another writes: I'm pretty open minded and watched this and found it somewhat disgusting.  Not for the content but the acting and quality of the film was horrific.  Netflix stopped pouring their money into a series such as Mindhunter, for this?
