You hate sex is a silencing method used when sexuality-related incidents are called out, especially creating a sexualized environment. The argument is that sex is a natural, enjoyable part of human interactions, and our culture (or an interlocator's culture) unnecessarily makes sex something shameful and banishes it to certain regulated spheres. In a more free society sex would be openly discussed and celebrated, and using sexual images and metaphors in non-sexual contexts is just an example of this. Therefore feminists should not suppress or criticise sexual speech or activity but instead promote it (see: sex-positivity). As an argument it appeals to a straw man of feminists being anti-sex.
