Well that’s today’s reminder that the USA was founded by Puritans
I remember when I first moved here from the US I was shocked that this show was allowed on television. Not because I think it is pornographic but because I didn’t realise our countries had such different censorship.
I actually really enjoy watching it – it’s unique and I admire that people are confident enough with their bodies to be judged by a bunch of strangers on tv. Americans need to lighten up – it’s not like you can just accidentally find the show on network tv. Really is not nearly as bad as when they used to air “Real Sex” on HBO in the 90s.
Bodies are just bodies, they are only sexualised when you make it that way.
Ughhh, of course Ben ‘can’t get his wife wet’ Shapiro is leading the objections. I think that sums up the pathetic conservative US rhetoric
For crying out loud the show has been on the air for years, my late grandmother used to watch it. Nobody is forcing anyone
America was founded by Prudes and there stigma is still felt all these years later
I watched this with my not-easily-shocked boyfriend from New York who sees all manner of bizarre things every day there and he was _aghast_ that it was being shown on prime time British TV, and just found the whole thing completely insane.
It was a real wake up call to me of the differences in censorship and culture in general over there.
Still find it odd that you can watch multiple acts of violence and murder on TV, but not see a minge.
“the natural outcome of a hedonistic society where the only thing that matters is the sex instinct,” according to Ben Shapiro.
Thank you for your review of our culture, Ben, I hope it convinces you to never come here.
Yanks in “Can’t handle tits” shocker. In other news Water is wet.
To be fair I’m still shocked every time I watch it, it is legit mental.
I am Eastern European so whilst this was perhaps unusual to see… it was not unheard of. God, we grew up on ‘Sun, Hay, Strawberries’ (Slunce, Seno, Jahody) – an old czechoslovak comedy where you get people fighting and striping one another, people skinny dipping in ponds and the priest with his flock of grandmas accidentally watching a German porno.
A lotta fun.
Love the show.
I don’t get how this could even be seen as weird. Like … it’s not a random nude in a movie… it’s a show that states it upfront and hard to accidentally stumble upon.
