I was awake until midnight from the age of three, should it have been constant playSchool until midnight until I turned 18??

if you don't want them to watch programs like this, don't let them have a telly in their rooms and hog the remote downstairs.

anyfucker · 06/10/2008 22:13

smugcolditz, of course not

but I am offended by the programmes need to broadcast the actual, undisguised images of lesbian sex, arseholes, full frontal fannies, masturbation and even a glimpse of a blowjob at this time of night (9:30pm)

< have just realised it looks like I have been watching the programme a little too closely lol >

what colditz said about the TV. sometimes I wonder why on earth people let their children have TVs in their rooms when they get so outraged about what can be seen on TV!

NotAnOtter · 06/10/2008 22:15

we only have one telly

program was interesting and sadly informative - naive to think kids wont see this stuff colditz

thats what the watershd is for

s'ok beanieb, your point was well-made

I don't want to resurrect that old debate so am sorry I raised it

I know reporting has to be one-sided or I
guess there is no story

however, if anyone was equivocal about lap-dancing places before, I think a few minds will have been changed. There is no arguing with that footage and they travelled around the country during the investigation.

at what time do most 10-11-12year olds go to bed?

fine if you want them to see 'pussy licking front to back' complete with subtitles

I don't think kids won't see it.

I sure as hell know MY kids won't see it. Not until I feel like letting them.

so SWITCH IT OFF THEN

say NO you may not watch that, it isn't suitable.

Why would you let them even START watching a program about lap dancers, it's not going to be about native Norwegian dance cultures, is it?

anyfucker · 06/10/2008 22:21

cod, yes watch it

its pretty graphic

I'm not sure how this changed into should/shouldn't kids have tellies in their rooms?

I am offended. My kids will not see it. But many, many will.

beanieb · 06/10/2008 22:21

Anyfucker, if you are that disgusted then write to the programme to complain that their programme was biased and one-sided. They know if they put the nudity in it will draw in viewers and that they will get a lot of publicity.

did you see how they just kept showing the same footage over and over? Is that maybe because they didn't get very much ? Yet they are making out that they have a huge amount of evidence. it's all rot basically.

Yes - some women break the rules - but not all do.

SmugColditz · 06/10/2008 22:22

then their parents should make sure they don't, shouldn't they?

Lack of parental supervision is not the responsibility of Channel 4.

beanieb · 06/10/2008 22:23

Sorry anyfucker we crossed posts.

anyfucker · 06/10/2008 22:23

I have complained beanieb. For the first time in my life.

Interesting that a programme which is apparently very anti-lapdancing should show quite so much fanjo. I have often found anti-porn and anti-sex-industry campaigners surprisingly keen on getting a good faceful of what they are condemning, though....

anyfucker · 06/10/2008 22:25

With a username like mine, I cannot really take a moral high ground

The nudity=not a problem.

Fannies being fingered=a problem.

beanieb · 06/10/2008 22:26

Oh and yes, as someone who has been vocal about lapdancing clubs, I would say I am slightly more educated about what goes on, but still believe this to be following a set agenda.

The watershed/nudity issue is a whole different discussion I guess. It's gone 9, that's what the watershed is for. If kids are watching it then don't blame the programme makers, blame the parents if you have to)
