Kristin Davis Reflects on Discomfort Filming Early 'Sex and the City' Intimate Scenes

The actress shared her experiences of feeling unprotected during the show's early seasons and the lack of intimacy coordinators at the time.

Kristin Davis revealed she felt 'scared' and 'unprotected' while filming early intimate scenes for 'Sex and the City' due to the absence of intimacy coordinators.
She expressed confusion over the number of sex scenes included in the script, believing some were unnecessary and catered more to the male gaze than the female audience.
Davis noted that co-star Kim Cattrall could 'protect herself,' while Sarah Jessica Parker was the 'most protected' but found nudity uncomfortable, and Cynthia Nixon was largely indifferent to such scenes.
The actress recounted moments of discomfort, including a scene where she questioned why a co-star's actions were not guided more sensitively, highlighting the lack of oversight in such moments.
Davis reflected that as the series progressed, the portrayal of intimacy shifted to prioritize the cast's comfort and align more with a female perspective.
