Christiane Amanpour Sex & Love Around the World

All the negative comments are commenting on the age of the interviewer, insulting the female interviewer for different shallow reasons, complaining about how the focus is on women, how the only good men here are queer men etc. Dumb reasons to give this show a low rating.

Watch this show for yourself. It's very well done and very interesting.

Yes we know you find it weird that people do this and this, it's the nth time you repeat it. For a show that aims to understand objectively how societies deal with those subjects it ended up insisting a lot on the weirdness of non-US-centric lifestyles. Also, I get the idea of mainly interviewing women, especially in societies were men have more power in women's love life, it lets them talk more freely. But then the show takes its sweet time showing only queer men are good people and it feels like a Twitter feed. I can remember in the episode about Japan when a girl keeps saying she's fine with her couple not really having sex but they insist for several minutes on "that's not normal!!". Weird. As expected, it's a Netflix show with all the Netflix (anti-)values it carries and the main ideas that stick are that all around the world men are responsible for bad sex and that you have to behave like in New York if you're a civilized human being.

For short, expect a cliché romcom about women talking about their last orgasms more that a documentary.

I have to agree with most of the comments here. This lady isn't so good in her job. Her questions are always like: So is that about sex? instead of listening to the people, that just try to tell their stories. The guy in Berlin told her: you're a bit obsessed about sex. And she doesn't understand what he tries to tell her.. Sex and Love can be many things, more than as what she seems to define it for herself. Great potential, not so optimal execution.

Don't see why people don't like the woman host. She's asking questions and listening to the feedback from the people she's interacting with. This is a very informative show that I would recommend if you want to learn new things about these cultures that you may have had a stereotype about before.

It was very interesting to see the the different trends in different cultures however cannot help but notice she chooses only the progressive subcultures as representations. Her Berlin episode with the the afghani couple confirmed to me how short sighted she was and quite ignorant unfortunately. She kept asking the lady if anyone ever told her her own happiness was important. her questions reveal a very ethnocentric view which I suppose someone like her having the job she has could be expected to naturally operate beyond that. She goes on to say the woman looks very scared being asked that question not considering that she was instead offended by the individualistic mentality she pushed forward. Some cultures are more of collectivists that individualistic and this is such a basic distinction anyone interested in culture ought to keep in mind. Her ignorance whether staged or not was annoying and made the show lose credibility. A shame really because she had access to resources that could have added depth to the subject.
