It's a normal view, though I don't necessarily agree with all of it. Sex jokes are just bad comedy. The greatest comedians don't rely on them. So your view on that front is fine. But the overarching view of oversexualization is myopic IMO. People have always had constant sexual pressures and urges, the major difference in the times is the artistic expressions of these. The increased acceptance of sex in the public sphere has had a positive effect on our society, allowing people with different sexualities and sexual preferences to express themselves more fully and with less prejudice. Also, being more frank about sexuality allows youngsters to get better information about sex, ultimately keeping them safer. So while it can get a little old and boring sometimes, there are benefits that outweigh that. And it's always better to be able to talk openly rather than be repressed about one's opinions.
I think modern society is too oversexed
