Welcome back to Trashy
Fridays! Today we will be tearing apart
MTV’s “Virgin Territory” and VH1’s “Dating Naked”. For this week’s “Virgin Territory”
we will follow the stories of Anike, Shelby, the new guy, David, and Anna. Let’s get to the enjoyable trashiness!
First we will start with Anike, who was not in this episode very
much at all. To be honest this disappointed me because I really like her. Anike
is still having some concerns about losing her virginity to her boyfriend,
Julian, on their anniversary. She says that she loves him and can’t imagine
herself being with anyone else, but she still doesn’t know if she wants to do
it. Anike believes that her virginity is a special thing and should only be given
to a special individual. While with her friends on the beach she shares
her concerns of keeping her virginity. She is afraid that he will leave her or
will cheat on her so he can have sex. Her friends (who are awesome!) assure
that he has stuck around this long without sex, so he would never do that to
her. Anike and Julian go on a bowling date and poor Anike isn’t very good at
it. Her fears are confirmed, when Julian’s brother asks her about the situation
with her and Julian. This upsets her because Julian hasn’t been 100% honest
with her about his feelings. Julian and Anike talk some more and he tells her
that he wants to wait until she is ready and doesn’t mind waiting. Anike seems
to have an amazing boyfriend. Julian is a really good guy. He admits that it
was crazy, but he lost his virginity at 13. I like Julian; he has stepped up
since the last episode. At the end of the episode, Anike tells Julian that she
wants to go with the original plan and lose her virginity to him on their
anniversary.
Next we have Shelby, who got her boobs done. She was awake
during the whole process (I would never, ever do that) and she continued to ask
the surgeon if she should have more work done. OMG!!! Shelby you are so pretty
and do not need more plastic surgery. She needs to find a way to get to the
root of her problems and deal with her body issues in a healthy way. So after
the surgery, Shelby allowed everyone to feel her new boobies and didn’t regret
getting them. I’m happy she didn’t go for huge knockers, her boobs actually
look really nice. Shelby ends up going out with her new boobies and gets some
guy’s number. After that he eats her face, and that ends that… so gross!! So I
hope Shelby starts to love her body and doesn’t get the wrong kind of male
attention from her boobies. It would crush her if she still attracts the
jerks that she was dating before and it will destroy her newfound self-esteem.
Then we have the new guy, David, who is a super virgin. David is
19 years old and is from Utah. He is a big guy with a big heart, but he always
ends up getting friend zoned by girls. David has never been on a date with a
girl and hasn’t even kissed one. He was bullied in school so he hasn’t had a
lot of guys to talk about sex with until he went to college (he was sheltered
as a child and very socially awkward in high school). David likes this girl,
Cairo, and he plans on asking her out, but he doesn’t seem to know how. He gets
advice from both his frat brothers and his girl friends. David even does a test
run of calling Cairo to ask her out with his really good friend Emily. He ends
up calling Cairo and she accepts his offer of going out for sushi. Since David
can’t drive, Emily picks him and Cairo up for their date. David was really
nervous, but Cairo seemed very nice about it. At the end of the date he wanted
to kiss her, but he ended up leaving with a hug only. David is a really kind
guy, but he needs to break out of his shell a little more. He has done a pretty
good job already and I believe that the more he hangs out at college, the
better he will become. I hope that he and Cairo can build a stronger
relationship and he won’t be friend zoned yet again.
Lastly, we have Anna, who really was the star in this episode.
Anna was celebrating her 20th birthday
with all of her friends. First they had a party for her on the beach and then
they went to the club. Anna was excited because Alex announced that he had a
surprise for her birthday. Anna feels in love with Alex and ready to give
him her virginity. Before she met up with Alex, her friends took her to get her
first Brazilian wax. Her friends suggested that she gets a heart or a leaf down
there, omg… For her surprise, Alex cooks
her an amazing fish dish with quinoa and vegetables. Then as they go upstairs,
Anna announces that she wants to have sex with him, and Alex turns her down,
saying that he really loves her, but he doesn’t want to offend her family and
he wants to wait until she is off of the show. Then he closes the door to their
bedroom and the cameraman walks away looking disappointed that he couldn’t get
the essential shot. Then Anna announces three weeks later that she had lost her
virginity to Alex. She explained that it was amazing, and admitted that it hurt
a little at first. Anna gave an honest opinion of being a virgin on the show,
and after awhile I started to like her more and more.
So Anna is now off the show and I was expecting a preview for
next week, but MTV didn’t provide this. There is no preview anywhere of next
week’s show, but there is a new episode scheduled.
Onto “Dating Naked”:
I have always been interested in “Dating Naked”, because
apparently it’s the most entertaining dating series. I attempted to watch it a few times, but just
couldn’t get into it. But for this week I powered through because this has got
to be one of the trashiest shows I’ve seen. So if you haven’t heard, the
premise of the show is that two people go on three dates with random strangers;
the catch is that they are nude for the entire date. The show follows the dates
of 2 main contestants, a guy and a girl, that first start out by going on a
date with each other. Then they go on two other dates with different people. At
the end of the show, both people choose the person they liked best out of all
of the dates.
So we start out with Candace and Mike, and the first dates seem
very awkward for the show. Mike was checking out her body, which is not an
uncommon thing for both sides to do. (I saw part of another episode where a
girl was continuously checking out the guy’s junk.) These two go on a rope
jumping date and Mike continues to say how good she looks. Candace and Mike
connect as they talk and seem to have a fun time on their date. Mike thinks
that dating naked is a good experience because you connect with emotions more. (Um,
I guess, but I’m still not convinced.) Both Candace and Mike admit that
they have a hard time letting people into their lives and that’s why they are
single. They jump in the pool and Candace asks if he’s had sex in a pool
before. Mike replies yes and Candace says that she has a hard time not wanting
to touch him (well, Mike is a good looking guy, but still…) Then they eat each
others’ faces with a kiss. (blaaaahhhhhhhhhhh) Mike drops her off at her hotel
room and they do not have sex.
The next day each of them goes on a date with a different
person. Mike looks like he gets a crazy bitch…. Poor Mike. This crazy bitch’s
name is Diana and she wears a bit too much dark eye make-up. (Like, it’s bad.)
Diana shares that she has only dated creeps who were boring or just wanted sex.
(Of course the worst kind of guy, which leads me to believe that this girl has
been hurt by men many times.) Candace got J.D., who is a stripper… Oh god. She
and J.D go on a biking adventure, I just have a feeling this will be uncomfortable
for the guy. Diana and Mike play croquet for their date. She is not very good
at this game at all… Diana also shares that she has been kicked out of a
lot of places because she has been too drunk (ugh). As J.D. and Candace are on
their date, she seems to like him because he is more outdoorsy than Mike. J.D. also seems like he has a sense of humor,
which is nice to see. As Mike and Diana talk, it is revealed that her last
relationship ended after the guy cheated on her and had a baby with another girl.
(Score one for me, I was right.) Diana says that this has caused her to have
trust issues with men. Mike really thinks that this date is a disaster, because
she is crazy… But Diana has a different idea. She wants to settle down and she
thinks because they have the same interests that Mike is The One. (I can’t see
this ending well.) So Candace and J.D. talk again and it seems like Candace
isn’t interested in continuing a relationship with him. Then they all hang out
at the pool and Candace and Mike feel like both of their dates were not good. Neither
of them were interested in the other two, so they go off and hang out with each
other. Guess who isn’t happy about it? Diana. Diana starts to get really upset
and wishes Mike would’ve told her sooner that he wasn’t feeling her. She also
starts bashing Candace to J.D. by saying that she is ugly and such… (Wow, how
mature.) Diana starts bawling her eyes out and J.D. wipes her eyes and
mascara goes all over her face (now she looks really bad lol).
For date number three, Mike got Amber, who is a very pretty
girl. Candace goes on a date with Marcus. She and Marcus fly kites on
their date. Amber ends up massaging Mike. She reveals that she’s only had
one boyfriend and then was a lesbian for a while. (Mike doesn’t mind.) Marcus
tells Candace that he quit his girlfriend because he wanted to party. (Omg, not
a good guy it seems!) Candace and Marcus have fun dancing on their date.
Mike seems to dig Amber but is concerned that she seems to date for a long time
without finding love. Candace and Mike are torn between their first and third
dates and do not know who they want to choose. When hanging out at the pool at
the end of the day, Candace makes a signal to Mike for alone time, but he
doesn’t take the hint well. Diana and Amber gossip about Mike because she is
still upset. (Seriously, get over it.) Mike is afraid that, due to Diana’s
gossiping, Amber will think he’s an asshole and won’t continue to see him. He
also had to talk with a drunk Diana for a while, and really got annoyed by her.
Marcus takes advantage of the opportunity and goes to see Candace alone.
Candace ends up kissing Marcus. Mike tries to get alone with Candace but she’s
busy…. So he doesn’t’ get his chance.
Now for the decision! Mike says he had the least connection with
Diana (obviously) and he chose to continue to date Candace. Candace said she
had the least connection with J.D. and she chose Marcus. And Diana laughed like
it’s payback… omg I hate you Diana. Diana doesn’t want to date anymore and Mike
leaves disappointed.
So I think the people that were involved in this show liked the
experience of dating naked because you get a more emotional connection with the
person. I don’t understand how anyone can do this. But for the show’s sake, it
is very slow at times, which makes it boring and hard to watch. I will probably
never watch this again because it is torture sometimes.
