I don't think much of what you say adds up from the TR.

From reading the very detailed descriptions I didn't get that Amy is ashamed of their intimacy in any way - just that it has become gossip at her workplace due to Sheldon's inability to keep things private. Their friends and family are one thing but making such things known at the workplace is a big NO. I don't think her reaction would be much different if the once a year deal had already been abolished. You don't want your colleagues (or worse your boss!) gossip about your sex life.

Sheldon then tries to downplay the situation cause he thinks there isn't much to gossip about since they don't have much of a sex life as such but Amy rightfully points out that this is exactly what people are gossiping about. I don't see Amy being aware that other people will find a reason to gossip about them regardless of how frequently they have sex as a sign that Amy is unhappy with their arrangement. It's a direct reply to Sheldon's obliviousness about the whole situation.

But obviously she's always been very sensitive to the idea that people are gossiping about her and Sheldon and see them as a bunch of weirdos. That's part of her character and especially in situations like this it's very realistic. I mean seriously, who the heck wouldn't be embarrassed if your partner slips some bedroom details to your colleagues that you know they'll find weird and will gossip about??

Thanks ! That makes me feel much better :)  Maybe i just read it all wrong and when it airs ,it will be better.

Hopefully Sheldon can keep his mouth shut from now on.  If there has to be some plots about their life at Caltech where all kinds of  cool research happens,   I hope they don't waste it on making it all about their sex life . I'm not sure if this plot was even needed to begin with.

You're welcome.

Well... while Caltech might be a prestigious institution workplaces are not immune to slip back into high school/soap opera nonsense. If you're hoping that this stuff ever stops and everybody behaves like a mature adult, gurl, I have bad news for you! lol

But yeah, please more science plots at Caltech! Preferably for Amy, the guys will get one next episode or so.

I think that, as we often say that "Sheldon is still Sheldon" when he does something that we wouldn't really accept from any other character, we should start to say "Amy is still Amy" in similar circumstances. Amy has always in some ways been concerned with what people think. She lied to her mother about her and Sheldon being a couple in S. 4, she wanted to show Sheldon off to her whole family in S. 5, she cares about being the popular girl at Caltech, it's high school all over again for her. I guess it depends from the bad experiences during her formative years, when she tried so hard to bond with other people but was always rejected and made a joke of. She is improving on this respect, for example she is defending her relationship and appreciating its quirks much more than in the past (I've just seen on Tumblr the cutest thing ever. In today episode, when Leonard mocks Sheldon about his lack of understanding of human emotions, both Sheldon and Amy look at him with the same WFT face, they are adorable). But, of course, she has a lot of growing up to do, as well as Sheldon. Plus, really, and I agree with @spidergirl  and @April on this, we all know, as Amy for sure does, that Sheldon did not act out of malice in spilling the beans about their sex life with perfect strangers, but it's still something very unpleasant, especially in the workplace, she has all the rights to be upset about it.

I agree on this, TBH. The joke is simply not funny anymore, the writers should make up their minds with what they want to do with this subject....

Amy's concerns with what people say,especially if it is about some kind of mockering her about something, even she has her own opinions and put them in practice,  is consistent with buyiling/ loneliness stuff in high school, as people tend to have a defensive behavior about their most personal stuff. I know because in some way I can relate myself with some of Amy's complains in high school time. The bigest diference  was I have a brother and she seems to be only child and that never allowed loneliness in my case. :)

Has it ever come out what Sheldon said to kripke about his and Amy's sex life?

 

Am having a brain fart and can't remember

No, actually this is an(other) inconsistency in the plot. In this episode apparently he has told Kripke (among many other people at work) that he and Amy have sex once a year, completely forgetting whatever he had already told him about whimsically inventive coitus back in S. 6.

Ttbt inconsistencies... 

We dont like them but the show loves them. However is hard we get used to them , even after all these seasons.

Oh, if they don't touch things which are very dear to me, I don't mind inconsistencies too much, and it is actually funny to spot them. For example (sorry for mentioning it again and again) Bernie having an elephant-like pregnancy bothers me so so much, while Sheldon starting his "compulsive" knocking in the middle of S. 1 it's just an amusing factoid to me...

Exactly! The pregnacy 's I hated it, because in a show where science has a main role in characters' s lives is unforgiven. Sheldon saying about his sex life to Kripke now while  he forgot what he said when he was not into sex in past makes me laugh. Because Sheldon sometimes is too naive for his own good, lol!

Well, to be fair S6 was a long time ago - we don't know if Kripke found out the truth at some point earlier or if he only found out recently when Sheldon apparently set the record straight. We also don't know how he reacted to the once a year news. So there is some wiggle room here.

Come to think of it: Imagine Sheldon throwing in the news that he already spread false rumours about their sex life 4 years ago. That cute little diagram wouldn't have saved his ass! lol

I miss the cheeky instagram photos of the new script covers we used to get regularly last season--you know the ones, pencils concealing most of the title and all of us weighing in on what we thought it was, and all the techy folks trying to gleam every pixle of the pics.

Anyone know what happened to them??

For some reason Bill Prady got tired of posting them on Twitter. Now from time to time other cast&crew members post photos featuring script covers, with the episode title concealed somehow. Anyway, you are right, Bill's pics were special, the game of guessing the title behind the pencil was really fun, and here in the forum we were pretty good at it. I miss it!

But it is not high school anymore. 

Granted my high school /college experience was more, for the lack of a better word,  normal,  and it was not probably anything like Amy's but imo, people should not remain stuck in high school forever and look for constant validation from others their entire lives.

I mean if outside validation is so important to Amy,  dating Sheldon,  is the last thing she should do. 

This is just in general(this is not related to the latest episode).

Wow indeed! That is possibly my new favourite Sheldon's pic ever! I also like domestic Shamy so much, I hope the bathroom scene makes to the cut (if I remember correctly they taped different takes of the scene in different rooms...);  I don't know why, bus seeing them while Amy brushes her teeth and Sheldon is chatting with her as it is the most natural thing ever (when we all know that was not at all natural up to few months ago) makes me happy!

I know, my new favourite Sheldon's pic too! Same here, these scenes seem so natural and they look so  confortable even in the bathroom. Looking back how Sheldon was about someone speaking to him as he was in bathroom, even the person was out of it and looking at him now, as he is really confortable anywhere with Amy make me so happy for them. They may face anything together , doing everything together, what means a strong and meant to be relationship between two person who love each other. I should stop  ramblinh but I am  so happy, sorry about that! *grin*

I'm glad I didn't go to an American High School. Perhaps it's because about 80% of young people left at fifteen and were at work that we didn't put one another through what seems to have been a social torture chamber across the pond. I'm glad to hear of someone who found their school life 'normal'.

Didn't Amy once say it was a prestigious thing to be 'dating Sheldon Cooper' ?

The bathroom scene definitely makes it into The Locomotion Reverberation. That's the episode we saw before the taping Tuesday. Hilarious. Sheldon follows Amy into the bathroom to read her the train museum activities lol. And the end scene with Amy's fantasy? Hot and also so funny. When Sheldon pours water over himself in slow motion the audience was hooting and clapping lol.

It seems one of the sides effects of Sheldon becoming more emotional and social is loss of his eidetic memory.   Furthermore, for someone who values privacy and non disclosure agreements, it bothers me to learn he revealed the annual ritual to Kripke.  I would think as uncomfortable as Kripke has made Sheldon regarding his interest in Amy, Sheldon would want to embellish their intimate encounters.
