    I keep missing this show. I think its very interesting. People freely discussing body issues that we all have and hide.

    Does anyone know where this is available online? The tv3 website doesnt seem to have it in on the "Catch Up" section.

    I would imagine that's because of the graphic nudity. I'm sure they will repeat it. Did anyone see the stripping granny? hahahah

    I caught a bit of this, but my parents can only tolerate about a solid minute of nudity before they remember that the Late Late Show's on.

    I thought it was a very interesting show on two fronts, the insightful sociology of it and the naked people aspect. I love watching naked people shoot the ****, it feels so much more honest.

    I'd love to see it start-to-finish, but unless they broadcast it at about 2 in the morning that's unlikely to happen.

    Its after Watershed! So as far as TV3 are concerned no kids are watching tv therefore they can air it! As controversial as it may be

    I'm in shock. Not neccessarily disgusted but defo shocked to see this on of a Friday evening.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 793 ✭✭✭vicecreamsundae

    Im absolutely horrified and glued to it all at the same time. Fair play TV3 its keepin me entertained anyway.My god some of the bodies out there though :eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28 MoBoird


    In fairness how is any of it shocking? young people should be watching it so they learn earlier that everyone has hang ups and they shouldnt worry


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,328 ✭✭✭Mezcita


    Meh. I've done bigger.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,325 ✭✭✭Omega28


    fair enough on a monday night but a friday night when kids and young teenagers are off school!! I know my young sister will be awake at this time on a fri night and shes only 13.

    A scene with 6 lads naked in a sauna playin with themselves, some young teenage girl could be flickin through channels and see this

    and we wonder about underage pregnancies etc when there showing this sorta stuff on a fri night at 10.30


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 141 ✭✭missyfirefly


    Like I said not disgusted I'm also not offended but yes of course shocked.

    Was expecting to find a Steven Segal movie of something, but instead I find people fondling each other!

    Really? People's body hangups cause teenage pregnancies now?!

    The show is definitely interesting - and fair enough, it talks about what gets people down about their bodies....but it did also talk a lot about what people want in a sexual partner....e.g. women talking about size, girth, etc!! This kind of openness towards sex is what leads kids to explore more - and therefore may possibly lead to young pregnancies.

    Don't have a problem with the show, and understand it is after watershed, but just think it might be better suited at a later time.....perhaps when the younger age crowd are definitely gone to bed!!

    Anyway, thats my two cents on it....just thought i'd put it out there.

    they're not masturbating.
    everyone has a body and genitals. what's wrong with a teenage girl [or a little kid] seeing naked people on tv?
    i can see why people might not want their kids to see graphic sex, but this isn't porn. this is normal people talking about their normal bodies.
    what's weird is that so few teenage girls have no idea what their vaginas actually look like, let alone what other women's vaginas look like. shows like this are wonderful for reassuring people that they are normal, even if they don't look like the rubber people in magazines.

    sorry i didnt see this when i posted my reply.
    but i think it is important to point out that "exploring" doesn't get people pregnant, lack of sexual education and misuse of contraception does! sex is healthy and good.

    Now that does make more sense, I haven't actually seen the show, just heard a lot about it! Sorry! :)
    Although I'm in two ways as to whether an openness towards sex is a good thing or bad thing. Maybe if people were more open about it kids wouldn't feel the need to start being sexually active so early. For some kids it's a bit of a rebellion and way for them to think that they're growing up. Perhaps if people were more open they wouldn't feel that need as much and be willing wait.

    If that makes any sense at all! I'm only a naive 18 year old myself so what do I know?! :D

    Give me Steven Segal violently fondling people with his hands and feet over this dry heaving fest any day of the week.

    Me too- I was like "what's thi.. oh goodness." :eek:

    I don't think that a programme or people being open about sex and sexual partners leads to teenage pregnancies. I think it's more lack of education and lack of understanding about the human body and birth control than promiscuity.

    What lads were playin with themselves? Are you talking about the guy streching his unusually large nutsack? That was funny. No different from the women trying to guess their breast weight.

    Young people get sexually aroused whether they see something on TV or not, so I'm not seeing the connection with that show and teenage pregnancies. Would be a bit of a stretch for your sister to blame TV3 for her getting pregnant!

    I know I was masturbating at 12 and I wish I had some sort of show like this on TV for education rather than watching the porn that distorted my view on sex during my teenage years

    That show tries to take the taboo out of sex and nudity and was very insightful and overall was delivering a very healthy message....sex and nudity are normal
