No, you really can't skip it. And why would you want to?
>>
>>70219750
Personally, I don't give a shit about the gay stuff, but the show is inconsistent and makes sense 0.
>>
>>70220611
I've heard there are trans fucking other trans
I simply can't watch the mentally ill fucking

>>70220728
>I simply can't watch the mentally ill fucking
so you don't watch any porn at all?
>>
>>70219875
The actor who played Capheus (aka Van Damme) got shitcanned for transphobic comments.

Damn shame, he was one of the best parts of the show.
>>
>>70220728
That's the trans character Nomi's first scene: she fucks her girlfriend with a rainbow strap on.

Her character isn't fantastic, just does some "hacking". At least she isn't the pooinloo, Kala. Literally just based Wolfie's fuck tube.
>>
>>70220818
No
I only watch women undressing and public nudity
I masturbate twice a week, sometimes without the need for porn it's better this way
>>
>>70220868
And now the lead character Capheus left the show too
>>
>>70219750
Watched the first episode, it was OK, seemed remotely interesting. IIRC I had the impression that some characters' main aspects are being LGBT, rather than that being a detail to their personalities.

Anyway, it's a degenerate show made by two mentally ill men.
>>
>>70220952
noomis the one getting fucked.

symbolism is also intended there
>>
>>70220728
>I've heard there are trans fucking other trans

No, there's a transwoman who has a healthy amount of sex with her cisgender girlfriend, and at one point shares in what can only be called a mental orgy with three of her four male cluster-mates. At no point does she have sex with another transwoman, nor a transman. Maybe she will in the future, who can say?

>I simply can't watch the mentally ill fucking

So, the issue is on your end. Good for you to admit it.

If you skip all the gay stuff, you get a pretty enjoyable 15 minutes out of this series.

>IIRC I had the impression that some characters' main aspects are being LGBT, rather than that being a detail to their personalities.

To me, this complaint always comes off sounding like "I'm okay with characters who are gay on paper, but it never, ever gets referenced or plays a role in their lives." To a very large degree, LGBT people (much like people of other minority groups) don't really have the luxury of separating their sexual or gender identity from other aspects of their self - it will always play a role, probably a much larger one than they would even want, because the rest of society makes it a big deal at every turn. Everything they do becomes a political statement, or the conscious avoidance thereof.
>>
lily wachowski stepped down from directing season 2, lana is directing it xerself. what a mess.
>>
>>70222056
>don't really have the luxury of separating their sexual or gender identity from other aspects of their self
Because that's all they reduce themselves to. If the first thing you have to say about yourself is your gender identity or sexual orientation then yeah, that's what you'll be reduced to - first those, and then an actual complete person.

Main thing is, are you having an LGBT character for the sake of it or adding it to give the character some detail? If it's the former, that's faulty writing, and just as ridiculous as making a main trait of your character being vegan or some shit. You don't see straight, cis characters being reduced to their sexuality/gender identity so often (sure, you get films like Shame) - and it's specially more rare when you consider that's the vast majority of the population. I get it the Wachowskis probably want to make a statement, but they do it at the cost of their characters and plot. And I feel like a good portion of the audience (maybe the majority, with social media as a sample) likes Sense 8 firstly because of this gimmick and only then because of the plot.
>>
>>70222856
a thousand times this

a decent example is Lamar from the wire, he was gay but it didn't make his charachter shit
>>
>>70220707
>sense 0
kek
>>
So why was Van Damme fired? Because he didnt want to fuck the tranny?
>>
sense 8 is meh. there's some decent stuff in it, but all the shoe horned in tranny and gay stuff ruins it. the gay guy is entertaining sometimes, but the tranny is just a complete waste of time. shitty actor, shit story. heshe literally turns into a leet compooter hackor halfway into the series

It's really great if you like the more empathetic, kinda hamfisted new-age stuff. If you liked Cloud Atlas and similar films, you're going to love Sense8. If not, it's not really for you.
>>
>>70219750
so skip the entire show

No. It's one of those bullshit shows where the story doesn't progress before the last episode

Supposedly just a rumour, but Clayton also posted stuff about how "Hate is horrible. Intolerance is horrible. #Sense8 IS LOVE."

So who knows. Maybe Aml got snarky when it turned out that the other Wachowski did the switch, made a joke about when they were going to cut his dick off.
>>
>>70221134
I did appreciate that they showed the absolute ludicrious amount of lube you need to use to shove it into a transwoman's fake vag. It was slopping out everywhere.

>>70225565

Sensates can remember back to the moment of their birth. At that point, all eight of them shared in the memory of each other's birth.

>>70223828

No one really knows why Aml Ameen left. Clayton denied it was because he was transphobic, but that doesn't mean he didn't come out with some other kind of bigotry. It's interesting that only Tuppence Middleton seemed broken up over his departure, so maybe he had a poor relationship with much of the cast to begin with and whatever falling out happened at the table read in Berlin was just the last straw. They seem to like Toby Onwumere, his replacement, quite a bit.

He probably backed out of an orgy scene.

It's gonna be fine though. He's not the main character. It's the cop and qt Bjork.
>>
>>70229467
Man, I can't even tell where the story was heading, or who was going to be the main character. The cop got a fair amount of screentime, but so did the tranny, and honestly I have no idea what the plot even was by the last episode it was so tangled.

It's a really interesting concept for a show, but the Wachowskis are probably going to fuck it up as usual by telling everyone it's super deep, and adding layers of garbage on top until it's smothered.
>>
Skipping the gay stuff

What the fuck is the point of watching it when you skip literally 99% of the show?
>>
>>70219750
Trailers made it sound like an interesting action show. It's basically a live-action Gen Zed.

Don't watch it.

the arm grabbing is kind of believable but all those high kicks, although nice looking, are completely pointless
