Alien: Covenant - 18 WTF Moments
12. All The Weird Sex Stuff
It's an Alien movie, so of course there's a bunch of weird psychosexual imagery in there. From David telling Walter, "I'll do the fingering", to their shared kiss, and David's incredibly rapey fight scene with Daniels, where he kisses her, it's basically business as usual for the franchise.

After all, the Alien series has always been about the fear of rape and bodily intrusion, as externalised by the facehugger, but Covenant took this one level further by exploring an android's own investigation of sexuality, hence all that kissing.
It's honestly simply more eyebrow-raising than interesting at this point, and in the case of that damn fingering line, absolutely hilarious.
