Fifty Shades, or a Reminder to Not Take Sex So Seriously

In the hypothetical Venn diagram between attendees of curated “pop-up” environments and fans of the Fifty Shades franchise, there’s a lot of crossover, especially in a city like Los Angeles. Both of these “experiences,” we’ll call them, are polarizing. You love it or you hate it. Or maybe you love to hate it. Themed pop-ups are nothing more than a curated Instagram set, and Fifty Shades is not an educational or aspirational depiction of any real relationship. And that's said with no shade to either. Sometimes it’s nice to just have a good time and to remember sex is not that deep.
