A contestant on Naked Attraction has opened up about the time he almost fainted on the show.
Brian, 26, appeared on the Channel 4 show in 2020, but didn’t have the best experience in front of the cameras. He admitted that seeing nude women in the flesh for the first time became too much for him to handle, leading to him to feeling faint.
The show sees members of the public have their naked bodies revealed part by part, from feet upwards, in a bid to find love.
It was Brian’s first experience of seeing female genitalia for the first time. He was a virgin at the time of appearing on the show.
While this made for great viewing, and the clip is now regarded as one of the show’s “Best Bits”, Brian has since opened up about the traumatic experience on the “Curious Cast” podcast.
He said: "I had purposely avoided seeing female genitalia and that was due to a personal experience that I had, that made someone feel very uncomfortable.
"And I would rather not go into what happened - but there was something that happened, a little incident that happened that made me feel very anxious and very mindful.
"I was of the opinion that women's private parts should be respected - I know how that feels when that isn't. I know how the woman feels when their privacy isn't respected."
While appearing on the show, he nearly fainted because it was the first time he had ever seen a naked woman’s body.
He continued: "Any opportunity to see a woman naked in the flesh, I had avoided so that's partly the reason why I needed just a break to take everything in.
"I just needed to take everything in along with the fact that it was my first time seeing female genitalia in the flesh. So it was a combination of all of those with the reason why I needed it."
"I had no point of reference, and I think that's very true. Not only had I avoided seeing female genitalia but I had six of them. So I had no point of reference."
Brian admitted that he opted for his first time seeing naked women to be on the show because he wanted to have the experience "completely blind with the viewers".
He also said that he was "desperate" to find love because he had "no luck what so ever".
