Did you see the part where they lined up a group of 16 year old boys and then asked them which boobs were the most perfect and then were surprised by the fact they picked the fake boobs!
I am not sure that is what I got from the show as much as with kids getting 'the facts' from porn rather than knowing what real men and women look like. I used to do a bunch in sex education and it is amazing how much talking down goes on in it rather than just giving facts. The bits of the show where they actually showed the teen what happens during an erection and what happens to a woman during pregnancy was excellent. When it moved away from that it got judgemental. For example, last night when they dolled the presenter up to look like a porn star it was totally judging people who might find her attractive that way (and I didn't). When they talked to the gay for pay porn actor I thought he came across as more together than they wanted him to be.
