It's a bit sad that they would lower themselves to it, there were many other things they could have done! I was pleased they lost last night as they deserved to for choosing to reinforce the role of women as sex objects once again

It's sad that that's how young women think and see themselves, but not surprising when you look at the wider culture which is saturated with women as sex objects.

Comparing it to prostitution is far too strong even if the girls had been dealing out full blown snogs (and if I was appalled at anything it was Sir A's remark) but they weren't, they were giving pecks on cheeks and hugs. What has happened to so many people's sense of humour in this country? The right person went. I was surprised not to see Gerri go the first week. She made the same mistake again as in the when she also picked the wrong location but that time had managed to talk her way out of it. I wasn't surprised she didn't get a third chance. For thousands of years virtually the only way women could make money was the 'oldest profession' ie selling their bodies so it's not surprising that many feminists like myself are appalled to see so many 'post feminist' women think it's ok to trade in on their sexuality to get ahead. |

Actually I'm beginning to think the whole show is scripted, and it's a reused script.
The selling kisses and AMS's reaction where lifted directly from the Apprentice USA season 6. |

As for being more attractive than Naomi, I won't even treat that comment as serious. Last edited by Forever Awkward : 12-04-2007 at 19:53. |

It wasn't a particularly proud moment to be a girly. What's so, so disappointing is that they're obviously not a complete bunch of idiots, but the best idea they could come up with was, essentially, selling themselves to blokes. It's like they didn't even try to have a good think before they realised that hey, they have boobies, and hey, blokes like boobies.

When the suggested the kiss-o-gram I imagined lots of tongue and slobbering, but it was a peck on the cheek. Come on... |

I think Jadine is attractive - and I dont wear glasses or need them, if you dont realize that people dont all fancy the same types it shows your lack of worldly experience.
At least shes got a bit of fire to her. |

it was a massive problem for me - to say 'I want to make money any way I can' (can't remember who that was)
well why not go the whole hog and offer full sex if you'd really do anything it's just prostitution, whatever way you slice it and I wasn't impressed |

It's not the the kiss-o-gram idea that raised my eye brow, it's the fact that these were deemed to be the best business brains out of thousands that applied for the show.
How bad were the ones that got away?

Is kissing someone (on the cheek mostly) an "act or practice of engaging in sexual activity for money or its equivalent" as is a defnition of prostitution?
Are people that deliver kiss-o-grams prostitutes? But I agree Dante Ameche, is that really all they could come up with? |

I meant how bad were the business brains that got sent away that didn't make the show.
I wonder if they sit at home watching and think themselves very fortunate that they didn't get on the show? |

Or maybe it really is the best business one can come up with?
