A friendly reminder on a common term! "Cast" never "casted"

What are actors thoughts in performing in student films where there's a sex/make out scene?

I've read some really good scripts lately from students but one thing I've noticed is they often have unnecessary make out/sex/ nude scenes that come out of nowhere. One script I thought was terrific and then at the very end the woman ends up naked in a...
