I think that perhaps I'm out of touch or old fashioned ,but I find Naked Atractuon revolting and disgusting .

I've tried desensitising myself by watching it again, but I find it deeply offensive .

And then ,I found something which is even more distasteful Vagina Knitting .

It came out in 2013 and features an Australian artist ,who inserts a ball of wool into her vagina regardless of her time of the month and knits .

Am I alone in my reaction ?

People are free to laugh at what they want.
They certainly don't need anyone else's permission.

MissAdventure Wed 23-Mar-22 14:17:48

No, I don't know anything about anything, mummer thank the lord for people like you who do. smile

There's nothing to see really, anyway.
Nowt wrong with naked people.

My late husband & I used to watch it - it's not so much fun without him so I seldom do now, but we loved the show.

We used to groan and squeak with horror at some of the body piercings; make horridly judgemental remarks about parts of people's bodies; decide which ones we'd choose and analyse why that one and not another, and we'd decide which person should be chosen as the best match for the chooser - then we'd often go "oh noooo" when the chooser decided on someone else.

The people who appear on the show do so from choice - mostly they're clearly exhibitionists, and it's meant to be viewed tongue in cheek.

If you don't like it, for goodness sake, why don't you change the channel as soon as you've realised what type of show it is??? I swear, some people must ENJOY being offended!

I guess it could be argued that this is a place where we see naked bodies as they really are - rather than the perfect, gym-toned, plastic surgery enhanced ones that are the only ones usually seen on TV (and in films)? I keep hearing about body dysmorphia problems, especially amongst young girls, so maybe this programme would help them realise that their bodies are fine? However, the whole "attraction" bit is ridiculous - we usually meet (and are attracted to) people when they're clothed, and the naked bit comes well after that (but any chance to film people with their kit off, I guess!) Personally, I've only watched it once (out of curiosity) and that was more than enough for me.

Witzend Wed 23-Mar-22 14:39:55

I can’t say I’m drawn to NA so I’ve never watched it.
I did once read of Knitting Your Own Orgasm but I doubt that’d be titillating enough for those who enjoy gawping at other people’s bits.

Allsorts Wed 23-Mar-22 14:40:39

Ages ago I tried to watch the programme, I’ve been married twice and broad minded, however it mad me nauseous I have never seen such weird genitalia. Surely they are chosen for it. Don’t watch anything like Love Island or similar, it bores me, just people obsessed with looks and trivia. Too much emphasis is put on looks and I feel sorry for young people now and what they seem to perceive as normal.

MissAdventure Wed 23-Mar-22 14:43:44

It's just clear that whatever answer someone gives, it's going to be wrong a cording to someone else.
We mustn't laugh, aren't allowed to take it as "tongue in cheek" (oooh err, missus and apologies to mummer)
And god forbid we should titter!

grin MissAdventure good reply. I think poor, sensitive, keeper of our morals mummer is about to burst a blood vessel - very kind of you to try to keep her calm. wink

songstress60 Wed 23-Mar-22 14:45:12

It's disgusting but I think some people will do anything to be famous, and that's why they go on there. Have only seen it once NEVER again.

BlueBelle Wed 23-Mar-22 14:50:23

Whose this mummer laying down the law and being rude to posters?

MissAdventure Wed 23-Mar-22 14:52:55

No idea, but she seems to be a bit angry.
Perpetually.

Chewbacca Wed 23-Mar-22 14:54:26

I used to have the NudiNits calendar on my office wall. It was constantly getting nicked, especially when the November photo came around and Barbara had to hold Bernard's rocket.

MissAdventure Wed 23-Mar-22 14:56:57

Somebody will be blowing a gasket if they see that. grin
Brilliant.

well, if I was vulgar, I would say she needs a good seeing to (as used to be said) to calm her down. But I am not, so I won't say it.

Alioop Wed 23-Mar-22 15:05:12

Mummer I was 13, yes a long bloomin time ago, but never a nun. Oh so serious aren't we or just plain rude! I don't watch it so I don't sit and snigger at it like a child. I smiled at another poster's remark for your information.

Mamma7 Wed 23-Mar-22 15:12:47

Love Gogglebox but through that have come across Naked Attraction and other programmes - I thought I was broad minded and couldn’t be shocked, but Yuk!

Elegran Wed 23-Mar-22 15:14:47

Is Mummer male or female? Does anyone know?

snowberryZ Wed 23-Mar-22 15:15:28

The nudenits calendar looks like fun.
Completely different to NA, which is just rank.

Chewbacca Wed 23-Mar-22 15:33:34

NudiNits are really funny snowberry and you can buy the knitting patterns to make your own Bernard and Barbara. They have a lot of fiddly little bits though!
