Jpg: Nude and Fearful
Subsequently Stephane has an enlightening interview with a participant named Manu from
TV show Naked and Afraid. Manu is well-known in the show because she got dengue fever
from a mosquito bite while in the Panama jungle.
This can be an extremely serious, painful ailment that caused some severe nerve damage for
Manu. After hospitalization followed by months of physical therapy, she's now nearly
completely recovered and doing nicely, as she reports on the podcast.
In finding out about the way in which the show works and what the experience is like,
Stephane asks about the nudity aspect of course.
What I thought was most interesting is the producers actually request the survivalists to
fashion some "clothes" for themselves to cover particular body parts, using leaves or
whatever they find. Review Of TNS - The Naturist Society Gathering are not required to get it
done, but they "kindly inquire" anyway. Why? It makes it easier to edit the show!
So let's get this straight. The show would preferably renege on its own marketing ploy of
everyone being "naked" to be able to spend less time and money on editing in all those blurry
spots on the bodies. They do have the choice of not censoring whatsoever, but then they
must determine that would cost them more money in losing advertisers / sponsors.
So they only want to have their cake and eat it, too. Well, Discovery Channel, it seems to me
a bit egotistical and greedy to ask folks to concern themselves with modesty when they've
much bigger things to worry about, like oh say, food and water?
Manu makes this very purpose in the interview.
Her partner, Russell, declined to cover up because he saw it as a rare chance to be naked
and free in the jungle.
However as Manu additionally points out, being nude additionally meant having no protection
against the elements. You're super exposed. Manu was uncomfortable every night because
of the chilly, and her feet endured without any shoes.
Hear more inside information about the show and Manu's expertise in the podcast interview.
In did not say "reintroduce" but "introduce" (See Cardiner, AAW p. 191). , Stephane and I talk
about the research I did on naturist beauty pageants with his previous podcast episode.
