"It is also clear that, in Chihiro, Miyazaki has created a character who, when confronted with absence and despoilation on both personal and cultural levels, ultimately rises to the challenge. Henry Jenkins has said of the temporary state of childhood that it, "becomes an emblem for our anxieties about the passing of time, the destruction of historical formations, or, conversely, a vehicle for our hopes for the future."

While Spirited Away ultimately refuses to provide a totally reassuring vision for the future, Chihiro's trajectory from near dissolution to arguable empowerment enacts at least the potential for cultural recovery."

i think when we used to point out that a story didn't need a sex scene what we meant was "this story reduces its women to mere sex objects and gives them no interiority so the sex scenes are gratuitous and geared towards the male gaze" it wasn't the sex that bothered us per se it was the objectification of female characters while givig them little to no consequence to the overall story but nowadays people mean "sex is icky and gross and has no merit to ever be portrayed in our arts which should be good and pure and never ever make ME feel discomfort" and it's like. i bet a bowl of unfrosted flakes looks real good to you rn
