"Bridgerton" Perpetuates The Myth That Sex Will Convince A Man To Love You

You’ve likely seen plenty of articles over how their relationship can be toxic at times, but I’m not here to talk about the controversial scene from the sixth episode. I want to talk about the foundation of their relationship in general.
