I went into IT with an open mind and was prepared for that scene. Kept thinking that it probably made a lot of sense since many King fans had said it had a very beautiful reason behind it.
Then I get to it. And it’s just stupid. Genuinely stupid.
The kids are scared of forgetting each other, because that is the power of IT. It makes people forget as they grow up.
So they want to do something meaningful to remember each other. And Bev is like: y’all can fuck me.
And I am over here like: how are the boys supposed to remember each other if they only fuck you? If that scene was supposed to make a lick of sense, the kids would have an orgy with each other and not just the boys lining up to have sex with one girl.
I can go along with weird and uncomfortable ideas in books if they make sense. In this case, it made no sense. But people either seem to defend it because they just go along with the premise or they defend King because he was high or some shit.
I’m not defending bad storytelling. IT has a lot of cool concepts in it and no one can write about small communities like King can, but I’m not gonna pretend like the kids having sex is some clever narrative device. It’s very, very stupid.
I also think the Turtle is goofy af.

Tbh if my first time was a train of my bros all with the same chick, i’d probably remember them for a very long time even without a proper orgy. Though i’d probably remember them all for helping to defeat an eldritch sewer fiend anyways.
Still sounds like a stupid thing to put in a horror story about teenagers though…

It would have been so easy to just not write that part. Or her character like that at all tbh

There is a scene in the book “It” where the only girl in the friend group decides to have sex with all the others to bring them back together. Down in the sewers.

The book has child porn in it. A group fuck where they all fuck the girl.
Not joking.

The kids defeated the clown by fucking

Hey now, let’s be clear. Stephen King did not have the clown defeated by a bunch of outcast youths gangbanging in a sewer. That’s just patently incorrect. Every single part. No, he had the ancient terror disguised as a clown temporarily banished by summoning an ancient turtle from the dawn of time and engaging It in a battle of wills. Anyone that’s actually read the book knows the outcast youth sewer gangbang happens after that and actually has no bearing on the plot whatsoever. Stephen King’s not some freak writing a book where the entire plot hinges on a bunch of traumatized kids screwing each other to save the world, no; he’s a perfectly normal guy writing about a bunch of traumatized kids screwing each other for no reason at all. Bet you feel real silly now, huh?

What the fuck are you on about? Nothing you said is remotely true, this is a gross misinterpretation of the events depicted in the book.
It’s not a gangbang, it’s a train. They go one after the other.

I thought that in order to be a train they should be connected to each other.

And this was the stuff he got published. I’d dread to read his drafts and unreleased material from that era.

I remember it being for the need to destroy their innocence.
Since that attracts these clowns.

Was there not some time traveling component? Like their future selves had to find each other again and come back ti their childhoods. I thought that was what made the “children having sex” part not as triggering as it sounds,because they were actually adults. Mind you, it’s been years since I read the book. I might be misremembering things.

So … adult-minds having sex with children’s bodies?
That makes it worse!
