Howso? Abstinence until marriage was more normal back then, and deviations from that norm were viewed as aberrations. It’s almost the opposite today.
I guess I need to amend 50 years to 70+ years because it just dawned on me that 50 years ago was the '70s… in my mind “50 years ago” still means “1950s”…
But still.
Also, wasn’t the Beast’s curse broken by “true love’s first kiss”? So obviously they weren’t fucking because the movie ended right after their first kiss…
Fifty years ago you could depict a romance without everyone assuming that they’re fucking.
Simpler times, it was…
unrealistic for cishet sexual people (the assumed default)

true, you’re right, I didn’t consider that properly in the context of the movie. i apologize.
You think you have to kiss to fuck?
It’s not impossible to do otherwise, but generally a typical progression (especially for someone’s first time) involves kissing before fucking.
There’s really no basis to assume that Belle fucked the Beast in monster form…
