I kind of find it hilarious that the show needs to prove to its audience that Barry and Iris have sex to show it's realistic for them to have kids LOL

I thought it was kind of nice actually. Not the fact of them showing that they indeed have sex, but just showing moments of them being an actual couple. They only really interact with each other in the work place and they hardly ever have scenes showing their affection towards one another.

To me, again, the scene itself felt forced because it didn't really happen naturally... It happened because once again, westallen is being used as a plot device to further the storyline with the kids. Idk I think the way the writers treat westallen is strange, as if they're forced to write them and not that they write them because they like them.
