View Full Version : Big Brother & Sex
I see The Sun is offering £50,000 if any of the competitors are shown having sex on the next series of Big Brother. But there's a catch - the couple involved should not be the same sex.
Is this homophobic or what?
Please discuss.
OK steelblade?
i reckon its more to do with broadcasting laws ;)

That was like lightning RPG, I'm impressed. :D
oh you know ;)
right place, right time an' all that ;)
steelblade 21-05-2003, 15:19 Yes maxt, fine :)
Wonder why they said no to same sex sex :lol: sorry.
Personally I can't say as I want to watch any of them having sex, it's not what it's all about.
I did think it was a bit controversial about them specificly stating that the sex had to be straight. This means if you're gay you're excluded.
Anyway, surely the ethics of offering people money to have any sort of sex has to be questionable?
Ethics & The Sun, that deserves a whole new thread, unless they are mutually incompatible.
DaBouncer 21-05-2003, 20:16 Go one have sex on telly... you know you want to!
they'll never show it.... but I suppose this IS C4 we're talkin about!
What are the bookies offering by way of odds for a couple to do it in the house? Anyone know?
waxy chuff 22-05-2003, 09:34 I heard short as you like.
I can't afford to make that bet worthwhile.
You can't beat a nice bit of lesbian sex. Unless one of them is Jade.

Bluuurrrrrggghhhhh
Damn right there dude!
Michael_W 22-05-2003, 17:43 Me thinks any willing BB house members would probably do the deed under the cover of a duvet, unless they were true exhibitionists, which opens the Sun's 50 grand offer up to any willing pair who can simulate (pretend), or would the Sun require graphic evidence (Hardcore style) ?

I say it's only fair to go for option 2! :wink:
Michael_W 22-05-2003, 18:03 I reckon Ch4 / E4 would edit and save the uncut for the video !

Good job I got Broadband internet then innit! :wink:
Michael_W 22-05-2003, 18:54 Me too but don't you need to pay a subscription for the live streaming ?
DaBouncer 22-05-2003, 18:55 I dont think so... I ******* hope not!
Anyone good at hacking?
Michael_W 22-05-2003, 19:02 Last year BB web site charged £9.99 per month for live streaming, if I'm not mistaken, don't know if any other site live streams it for free ?

That's a ******* outrage!
What an idea tho. Fancy setting up a steaming website and we'll pay the £9.99 per month and direct the streamto our site and charge £2 per month to everyone! We'd make a killing!
Any comments on The Sun's homophobia, that being the point of my original posting?

Only the fact that I wouldn't want to see such an act, and I am NOT homophobic. I wouldn't bn it from TV tho... if they are willing to show one, they should show both. I'd be happy to switch over for a bit!
On the flip side I'd have no problem seeing a guy and a gal or just two gals gettin it on. It's what the individual can handle I suppose!
Michael_W 23-05-2003, 13:44 I'll second DaBouncers comment, I wouldnt want to see two blokes simply as a matter of taste and not homophobia, and as DaBouncer says anything else goes, is the Sun really homophobic or are they just expressing a common view ?
Each to their own I say !

Any comments on our new business venture Michael?
Michael_W 23-05-2003, 13:58 Were you serious DB ? I ain't sure about the technicalities or the legalities you better enlighten me, I could do with some easy money !

Wasn't serious, but if it were legal (I'm unsure) then I'd be interested!
Maybe someone in the know could fill us in!
Classic Rock 23-05-2003, 15:17 Not wanting to sound like a prude, but isn't this a form of prostitution?
That was what I meant by my original comment. It's not really ethical to offer people money to have sex.
Michael_W 23-05-2003, 15:31 Maybe Classic, but hey a one off for 50 k might get some interest, what's the chances of it happening on the first night !!
i'm surprised people actually watch such inane drivel. if you want to see people having sex, subscribe to a porn channel. if you want to see people sat about talking, go to your local pub.

Does it count as prostitution if the person paying isn't receiving though?
(Of course, it's still unethical but not prostitution surely.)

If you want to see 12 complete nutters locked up pretending to be nice to each other and you've seen 3 series of Big Brother and 2 series of Celebrity Big Brother and thought they were quite funny at times ... watch Big Brother 4 tonight! :lol:
i'd rather stick pins in my eyes
I am all for sex between a man and a woman, but on TV.??? What about little children seeing it??? and do not give me that about the watershed!!! it is a laugh!!!
This proposal, is a publicity stunt as usual by a bunch of PERVERTS. :evil: :evil: :evil:
the sun is only catering for the kind of readers it gets - the same idiots that watch such dumbed down rubbish in the first place
Must say I don't think I'm going to enjoy this series as much as the others. Sissy is so annoying! Anouska seems a bit of a cow and the looks she gave some of the other girls when they came in... if looks could kill! Don't know who'll win to be honest!
