NormalPeople might have realistic sex — but the BDSM plot is all wrong
While Marianne is studying abroad in Sweden, she has a degrading encounter with a partner named Lukas who ties her up during sex, then refuses to let her shower afterward. “You’re worthless. You’re nothing,” he says. Later, Lukas forces Marianne to pose for photos naked and tied-up, the camera lingering on the bruises on her wrists. When she begs him to stop, he is seen flagrantly ignoring her.
Perhaps more to the point, Marianne’s taste for sexual debasement seems to stem from her traumatic upbringing, which is marked by physical and emotional abuse. At one point, she asks Connell to hit her during sex, and he refuses; Marianne interprets this as him casting judgment, and she storms home in tears. Within the context of the series, the viewer is led to conclude that he simply cares about her too much to strike her.
