Devalue? Sure. It's portrayed as what it is, the relatively valueless act of humping and grinding (we're not talking about making babies, just bumping uglies) for animalistic pleasure.

Does that mean it actually always had "real" romantic, passionate, intimate "meaning"? Nope. I don't think it did. I think it was hyped and made unrealistic in the past.

"Modern media" hasn't devalued it, so much as shined a realistic light on it to expose our primal urges for what they truly are:

People like to fuck, want to fuck, and will fuck whenever they can until they, and their partner, are literally immobile. See the exploding rates of cases of STD's in retirement homes and communities.

Do you think the 60+ year old people there are getting crabs or the clap because the "modern media" has devalued sex and now they're finally deprogrammed and getting their freak on? Hell no. It's Viagra. But seriously... It's just that it's now being presented as something everyone does, which is something everyone knew personally all along, but was not admitted to publicly. Now it's publicly acceptable for your grandparents to get it on as much as they want.
