> Nearly 40% said they particularly want to see more non-romantic relationships or asexual characters on screen. The majority of respondents said they felt that romance in media is overused.

It bothers me a little bit that the headline is that Gen Z wants less sex, but the supporting evidence just says they want more platonic and asexual relationships on screen. The two are not mutual exclusive.
