a scene of two young people exploring their sexuality would not be nearly as creepy, the fact that it's a gangbang of a barely teenage girl who's also being raped by her father, and that it was her idea, ups the creep factor by 500%

I'm with you OP. This isn't "sexytimes" or exploring sexuality. This is an abused little girl being trained by six little boys. Remember people they are 11 in the book. (I love IT but skip that part wtf Stephen King?)

Even worse that she basically forces herself onto Eddie, who says more than once that he can't and doesn't want to and can be argued is gay. She also thinks to herself that it's nice having power over him. Not to mention this all takes place in the sewers and makes no fucking sense in general. It's just a completely needless scene.

Stephen King is fucked up.

I totally agree that the scene in the book is deeply creepy and I'm extremely glad they didn't try to include any of that in the film. But from that I understand, Beverly isn't being sexually abused by her father in the novel. She is being physically abused and emotionally abused, but he's not sexually assaulting her.

iirc, it was strongly implied that while Bevvy's father might never have touched her sexually; that his relationship with her, while influenced by Pennywise like most adults in Derry, was definitely not free of that element - 'let me look at you, see if you're still intact'.

I like King's books, but the comments about cocaine etc. give him an out imo, he's always had a odd approach to sex, and across his work certain tropes arise constantly (homosexuality as a corrupting force; a strange approach to childhood sexual abuse - which kind of chimes in with his gross Twitter comments about how Dylan Farrow's allegations against Woody Allen were palpably 'bitchy' - the usual male writer sexism.) I think he's tried to overcome it to an extent, but then again, he pulled the old 'Well, you should object to MURDER' argument when it came up a few years ago; so maybe you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
