I have been watching HUNG for a while. It was entertaining, alright, if we ignore the fact that sex is shown as it is always is: censored; which I tolerate generally speaking (This Film Is Not Yet Rated explains it all pretty clear), although when applied to a series about a gigolo... it is becoming far fetched, and seriously damages the credibility of the story. But still, I was watching the show. Today I decided to quit. I was just watching the second chapter of the third season, where Tanya (who is supposedly liberated and has technically impossible orgasms, as for example the one in the toilet, in that very chapter) explains to her sex students the two kinds of orgasm we women have: clitoral and vaginal. COME ON! In the 70s, maybe somebody believed it, but the fallacy has been perpetuated long enough, we are in the 21st century, and we know our bodies, and are not afraid any more of understanding and accepting our sexual organ: the clitoris. There is only one kind of orgasm: orgasm. It is usually obtained by means of stimulation of our sexual organ: the clitoris. Sometimes a man, with his penis, can stimulate the clitoris via penetration, but it is not the most efficient way to stimulate it, of course. By perpetuating the fallus fallacy, the system is making us women feel weird and strange, alone, and often unorgasmic. So, if you ignore a woman's sexuality, do not write a script about sex.
