more cock shots - yes or no?

BigBaublesGalore · 08/12/2020 10:07

After finally watching game of thrones, DP and I have found ourselves with a little disagreement that hopefully Mumsnetters can clear up...

During the series there were about 2-3 1 second cock shots and every time DP would say 'ooh a cock shot for you' (because if you haven’t seen it there are a million and one naked women shots) and no matter how many times I tell him 'I personally don't want to see penises flopping about on screen and I doubt many other women (and men) do either' he just wouldn't have it...

For me, if Jon Snow started whipping his cock out every two minutes I would find it really off putting lol

So I put it to you... would you (as a woman) like to see more cock shots on tv or would you find it off putting?

Vote: YABU for I LOVE COCKS AND WE NEED TO SEE MORE OF THEM ON TV

Or

YANBU for no, cock shots are off putting and I’d rather leave it to my imagination

Honestly I would be quite happy not seeing another strangers genitals ever again, male or female.

We've already jumped the shark with SirTW.

Absolutely no desire to look at penises.

Macncheeseballs · 08/12/2020 10:10

Not interested in cock shots but should definitely be less tits as well. Good storytelling doesn't need cocks n tits.

Honeyroar · 08/12/2020 10:11

I agree with Medusa. Don’t want to see either sex in their naked glory.

Less cocks more tits 😉

Plsv87 · 08/12/2020 10:12

Erm... I want to see Jon Snow's cock?
I'd like to see a balance of nudity in general on TV. Both or neither.

Sparklingbrook · 08/12/2020 10:14

I don't really want to see anyone naked in tv programmes. What's the point?

VettiyaIruken · 08/12/2020 10:14

The penis is a million times less attractive than most men seem to think.

I don't know how they can look down at it and think hell yeah, just got to show this beauty off. Women need to see this magnificent beast.

I watched Normal People over lockdown 1. It has a lot of very nicely done sex scenes. They had an 'intimacy coordinator'-fancy. But in two after sex shots the characters lie back naked and there is indeed a full view of a penis, would have been fine without.

Nottherealslimshady · 08/12/2020 10:21

Depends who it is. Never watched game of thrones. But theres been a few times watching a film or TV show and you almost get a glimpse but then dont and I'm a bit disappointed. If Lucifer gave you a glimpse of Lucifers penis then I cant imagine hearing many "well we didn't need to see that"s

I also love naked women though. I really enjoy naked bodies. But only if they're attractive and their "bits" are in good shape. I dont need to see some grey sagging balls thanks.

BlueBottle19 · 08/12/2020 10:21

I dont really have any desire to see cocks on tv.

Cocks and boobs are not the same thing. One is genitals.

Macncheeseballs · 08/12/2020 10:21

Not sure I need to see this mans cock tho Wink

more cock shots - yes or no?
Purplecatshopaholic · 08/12/2020 10:21

Never watched GOT - but I might now, lol. Seriously though, happy with parity in relation to nudity really - don’t see why I should have to wallow in superfluous tit shots in every programme without a cock shot in sight!

Macncheeseballs · 08/12/2020 10:22

I hated the sex scenes in normal people, I felt really sorry for the actress

Apparently it was all good. The intimacy coordinator made them both feel comfortable and they both say they are proud of those scenes. It was interesting to read about how they did them and the most unsexy thing imaginable to do.

They're not exactly the best looking things in the world are they.... Sad little elephants flopping around.

I don't care if I ever see male or female genitals again on screen, and that includes Amanda holden and her dresses. I don't even watch bgt et al but the shots are everywhere of her attempting nip slips etc in barely there dresses

My mind instantly goes to the c4 newsreader. Can't help it.
ItsAlwaysSunnyOnMN · 08/12/2020 10:27

I only find cocks attractive when I am having sex and it’s the mans cock who I am having sex with. If he send me pics at other times it doesn’t do anything for me

I don’t even wish to see Jason Momoa’s cock until we are intimate (it’s the pandemic that is keeping us apart)

I think many men struggle to understand that many women (I think most) as not as visually turned on as they are

So true! They all look like naked mole rats.
