Ya, I’d also disagree.
The big part like other have mentioned is it’s a Noir detective series written from the thoughts a ~25 year old man (at the start) who has almost no “dating life”. Later books when the pov matures and short stories from other perspectives (including a dog) are way different.
Also it’s a fantasy series and he is regularly interacting with literal sex vampires, magically beautiful Fae, and more. Pointing out the attraction and how you have to fight to stay focused while dealing with them is part of the plot.
That said, it also isn’t perfect. There are still some time where it goes a bit overboard in my opinion
