Well, it's different!shock

But yet again we have reference to vagina, "So, what kind of vaginas do you like?" when it should surely be vulva?

Very strange programme, who on earth commissioned it?

By the way, love the female choosers haircut!

What a weird programme I watched for the first time ( accidentally) last night I thought both the 'choosers' were so beautiful The first girl and her 'choice' seemed to complement one another well but I couldn't help feeling it was just a programme for young people who wanted to show their bodies off

I thought they all looked better with their clothes on

It's good that young people are much less inhibited about their bodies than we were. After all, we each have a body and so nothing to be ashamed about. I did feel that some of those taking part must have been incredibly hurt by some of the comments but my cynical DH reminded me that they are being paid a lot of money to take part (not sure how he knows that, mind you!). I thought it was a bit contrived, too, particularly the lovely bloke with the prosthesis. I think I heard him say at the end that he did not lose his leg in an accident but by some medical condition and he added that he expected to lose the other one, too. That's very sad. I didn't take to the young lady who claimed to be attracted to both men and women and I wonder if the TV company had put her up to that.

I've not watched it and don't intend too, nit because I'm a prude. I just don't see how this is entertainment confused

I'm with you nina. I have no objection to nudity and am certainly not shocked by it but just don't think this programme is entertainment.

Didn't watch it but from what I've heard it was just cheap titilation. Scraping the barrel comes to mind.

Is naked attraction an oxymoron?

Unless the 'naked' is a baby or toddler, yes it is!

OMG, do we have to check out each others undercarriage before the first date now, just to see if it's up to spec?

Elegran Tue 02-Aug-16 16:51:59

It sounds like yet another way to make nine-tenths of the population think they don't come up to scratch, to give a tiny minority the chance for a spot of TV exhibitionism, and to provide titillation for couch potatoes with pot bellies.

Been away for a few weeks and missed this, must look it up on catch up.

NotTooOld Tue 02-Aug-16 18:33:31

Elegran, you are right.
Dicky, I wouldn't bother!

phoenix Tue 02-Aug-16 19:10:13

I won't be bothering to watch again

Like HannahLoisLuke I was going to say scraping the barrel.
Channel 4 have been heading downhill for a while.

There is a show in the US called " dating naked" they block out the private areas. Really makes you wonder what the world is coming too. confused
