In a recent interview, Kristin Davis discussed her discomfort filming intimate scenes in 'Sex and the City'. She felt unprotected and confused about the frequent sexual content, particularly as intimacy coordinators were rare in the '90s. Despite acknowledging the show's female-targeted audience, she suggested that the scenes often catered more to the male gaze. As the series progressed, however, the approach to intimacy improved, allowing for greater comfort. Davis highlighted varying attitudes towards intimacy among her co-stars, noting how some were more comfortable and protective of their boundaries than others.
I had to hide in my dressing room at the end of the scenario. I had to hide in my dressing room and call my manager in L.A, at two in the morning.
If there'd been intimacy coordinators and all that stuff, there would've been much more discussion now, but there wasn't then.
I don't know how the men would feel watching cause I'm not a man, but it would be more for the male gaze than for the female gaze.
The sex scenes changed, focusing more on the cast's comfort and much more our gaze as it should be.
