As fun as it is watching these pinheads get upset at each other for repeatedly failing to control their libidos - I have to point out something is wrong here.

This show deceives young people into a trap that relies not only on greed, but also social pressure, embarrassment, intimidation, media pressure and other manipulative tactics to extort them into participating in what may even be a biologically unhealthy experiment. They do not appear to have been given sound legal counsel, and know they are at the mercy of a media corporation and on camera. They are isolated from their friends and family, and for much of the show, may not have the full faculty of their minds due to hormonal impairment and prolonged stress.

Has our society has gotten desperate enough for sexual catharis that it now considers such violations socially acceptable entertainment? Since they were tricked and intimidated into the situation, can it even be considered consensual? I don't want to get all preachy here, but I think somebody should try to help these victims get their due compensation.
