While it's true you don't have to like every single part of a show...

"BUT i fucking hated that it was porn with plot and that there was so much character development in the sex scenes. i hate sex scenes and i couldn't skip them. fucking bullshit."

You seem to be missing that part of the secret. A significant part of the storytelling appears to have triggered a rather visceral reaction in OP. And sure, they can continue watching it, it's their right to, but if something caused that strong a reaction in me, and not in a good way, I probably would have noped out at some point.

It'd be like me saying I fucking hate spiders and the sight of them makes me want to puke or run away, and then watching a show where the storytelling method relies heavily on the presence of spiders, and complaining that spiders were in it. Sure, I can continue watching, but it's hard to make the case that I'm enjoying it at all when the misery appears to outweigh any pleasure.

Exactly. There are over a thousand shows made in America alone every year. OP was not "forced" to sit through sex scenes to get the plot. They chose to watch a show where intimacy is clearly part of how the story is told.

If OP "fucking hate[s] sex scenes" and the show uses them for major character development, then maybe... just maybe... it wasn’t made for them. That's not oppression, it's just not everything being tailored to a single person's tastes.

Acting like the show committed a crime because it didn't tone itself down is ridiculous. They could have turned it off at literally any point. Watched something else. No one had a gun to their head.

There are thousands of other shows out there. If it was that miserable, why keep watching? Life is short. Why spend your free time hate-watching something and then acting shocked that it didn't magically change for you? If they cared about the plot that much, Google a recap and call it a day.
