Il sesso svelato

These felt like Buzzfeed videos in that you spend the majority of the time watching inexpensive graphics and hearing opinions of regular people, and the actual science and information is maybe 2-3 minutes tops of a 17-minute video. The first 4 minutes there was zero information and having to watch cheap graphics you would expect in an old video you see in high school health class. And what little science they give you a lot of it is just clips from old articles from the 2000s and '90s. The episodes seem more like a something an intern wrote out and then assembled a bunch of clips together, then hire a celebrity to narrate, and interview a few experts (though, we don't actually know if they're actually experts) for brief clips.

I suppose I'm not surprised to see Vox in the title, as I'm assuming their the producers. So, Buzzfeed wannabes? I've never been particularly impressed with Vox's writing and have learned to just avoid any articles by them as I find they tend to by heavily skewed towards the writer's personal opinions and very light on actual facts. They once had an article that was later removed promoting why we should be benevolent toward child predators. I mean, who signed off on that?

Vox trying to be an educational tool is kind of like Buzzfeed trying to be news, mostly a waste. It wasn't even entertaining and I certainly didn't learn anything new. It's more like they tried to build a show around a smidgen of information so they could make money off of it. Much better off watching something from National Geographic, Discovery, Science Channel, Smithsonian, etc.

And even an unexpected laugh, I absolutely died at Jennifer Connelly's "Give me the child" line.

I found it informative, found myself learning new things, even for someone with a Bachelor in Sciences, and think it's important for the youth of America to watch these few episodes, especially with the current state of affair of education in this country.

Some of the reviews on here clearly didn't like this series because it didn't fit into there personal ideas or what sex is and isn't. I can tell you that objectively this is an interesting and informative look at sex in modern times. I think whether you like it or not depends entirely on your views on sex and around it. If you are more closed minded, I'd skip this one. If you are interested in the topic and want to learn more, I'd give it a watch.

Probably one of the best documentary series I've watched with lost of information that I was not aware of. Might appeal more to women and less to men but I also think some parts of it are very useful to know by men as well. I truly hope this will reach as many girls and women as possible as I truly appreciate the note of encouragement and empowerment to make your own choices about your body and it did offer some interesting information to start researching if interested.
