Sophie Lewis speculates about the collective turn-on:
"Fighting against the policing and regulation of what Jordy Rosenberg calls ‘our constitutive porosity’ means figuring out how we will manifest, architecturally and ecologically, biomes conducive to bathing aimlessly and celebrating our collective permeability on a mass scale. The vapour-containing techniques of masking up and keeping a six-foot distance from one another’s bodies might paradoxically prove to be wonderful popular primers not only in solidarity and epidemiological consciousness, but also therefore tenderness. And as we abolish the capitalist logic of work and obligatory enjoyment, we will instantiate the conditions of possibility for the collective turn-on. We will, as survivors of the old regime of sexual violence, design whole cities full of erotic biotic infrastructure; whole continents adorned from coast to coast with spaces of thrilling safety; mushroom glades, therapy marquees, doula grottoes, patient-led free clinics, swimming holes, napping palaces, drop-in centres, temples for public weeping, bath-houses, multigenerational creches, polymorphously perverse aquifers, people’s banquet-halls, multispecies library-sensoriums, train compartments that can get you off, laundrettes that offer to fist you, collective houses that promote wellbeing, dance halls that promote bliss, massage coliseums, and pleasure pavilions. We shall all have become creatures well-versed in saying ‘I would prefer not to’ and ‘no’. The lustlessness of the pre-Covid era will become shockingly obvious to us in retrospect. We will hardly believe the historians when they tell us about the old days of #MeToo and heterofatalism."

Turn-On [Explained]
Transcript Under the Cut
[Cueball walks up to Megan sitting at a bar.] Cueball: So, the LHC's turning on. This could be our last night on earth.
[While Beret Guy as a bartender walks into the frame, Megan replies without turning.] Megan: Gimme a break. They're not even colliding yet, and it won't do anything cosmic rays haven't.
[Cueball turns and walks away. But then Megan turns towards him and says:] Megan: Hey, I didn't say no. Megan: I'm a physics grad student. I need the excuse to party.
[Cueball turns back and they talk:] Cueball: So, you're up for a night with a charming stranger? Megan: Depends. Top or bottom? Cueball: Hey, I haven't even bought you a drink. Megan: Barkeep, two whiskey sours, straight down.

Considered one of the biggest flops in TV history some stations pulled the plug on the show midway through it’s airing and filled the remaining time with music, a practice that hadn’t been used in 20 years at that time.
(via Turn-On (TV Series 1969– ) - IMDb)
Turn-On is an American sketch comedy series that aired on ABC in February 1969. Only one episode was shown, leaving one episode unaired, and the show is considered one of the most infamous flops in TV history.
Turn-On's sole episode was shown on Wednesday, February 5, 1969, at 8:30 pm ET. Among the cast were Teresa Graves (who would join the Laugh-In cast that autumn), Hamilton Camp, and Chuck McCann. The writing staff included Albert Brooks. The guest host for the first episode was Tim Conway, who also participated in certain sketches.
It was cancelled DURING it’s premiere episode...
Tell me something that drives you -sexually- wild...
Hi, nonnie!
Ooh, what a delightfully sinful ask! *Excited snort*. THANK YOU!
Ummm… Well, it’s… A bit complicated. What turns me on in my fantasy world is very different from what turns me on IRL. Actually, nothing really turns me on IRL unfortunately - I’m strange like that. But then, on the other hand, I practically live within my imagination and get off on that fantasy world hiding in my twisted mind every single day. LOL. So I’m gonna answer your question based on my fantasy world turn-ons, ‘kay?
Basically the keywords here are:
INTIMIDATIONFEARDOMINATIONVIOLENCENON-CON (mostly m/m)
It’s pretty much whump galore… And this doesn’t mean that I at all condone this kind of behavior IRL - sometimes ppl can’t seem to wrap their heads around that and it annoys the crap outta me. But, anyways…. In my imagination hurt with absolutely no comfort is the sexiest thing ever. I can litterally get all breathless and squirmy when I think about my fave male character (*cough*Sam Winchester*cough*) getting beaten up and sexually exploited in various ways. I love psychological intimidation building up to physical contact and resulting in abuse and lots of hurt…. I honestly don’t know why it turns me on, but it does and always has. I guess I’m fucked up. But hey…. It’s all in my mind. *manical laughter*.
To illustrate what I’m talking about I’ll just post some of my favorite, sexy Sammy GIFs… Stuff like this can litterally make my breath hitch - in a good way! ❤️ENJOY and thanks for the lovely ask! ❤️
Silent intimidation is sexy as hell. Just look at him trying to keep up the brave facade… That little caress with the knife gets to me every time…
Oh, and the fear and desperation here makes my knees go all jelly on me…
And of course a little non-con kiss is hot af!
Aaand the hair pulling! God, I love that! Just look at the helplessness…
Aaand a little trio of sexy… Knifeplay at its best. *Shudders*
