I was watching season 2 of down under and one of the guests requested all the men wear speedos. It frustrates and saddens me to see this played off as fun and silly just because it requires men to strip down and not women. If a guest came on board and asked all the women to wear bikinis for dinner, there would be some outrage.
I’ve seen the men sexualized a lot on this show (by women and gay men in all the different series ) and some of them find it fun and are happy to do it and some are reluctant but do it due to peer pressure.
In my opinion, it should be off limits for any men or women on the crew to strip down. If guests want to be naked, more power to them.
Not sure why I’m posting this, but the feminist in me is just bummed that now men are put in the position women have tried to claw their way out of for so many years.
News flash: they were sponsored by Budgy Smuggler and they required them to do that.
It’s all staged.
Everyone is part of a TV show. They all signed contracts.
They are selling a product.
