Virgin Island viewers floored after show 'turns into Naked Attraction'
Virgin Island viewers have claimed that the show has turned into Naked Attraction after the series entered its 'toughest phase' yet.
After a preview of tonight's episode was released earlier today, fans were 'mentally preparing themselves' for the show to take to the 'next level'.
The controversial Channel 4 series charts the journey of 12 adult virgins who travel to a Croatian island to embark upon a journey of intimacy.
Aged between 22 and 30, the contestants have so far tapped 'into their primal animalistic self' by nuzzling relationship coaches.
But tonight's episode saw the participants make a decision whether or not to be fully naked or not in the mirror.
As the contestants made a decision how far they wanted to 'de-robe', viewers deemed it as being eerily similar to another series.
Writing on X, @Mayce_Windu said: 'This is starting to look like Naked Attraction.'
@Nicholstix added: 'I'm so uncomfortable with literally everything in this show… but at the same time, I can't stop bloody watching it!!'
@darrenbizzle2 also said: 'Me toes are curling up already.'
Earlier this week, a Virgin Island star defended the show after viewers slammed it as being 'exploitative'.
Ben Harris – who features on the show – said: 'I don't regret taking part at all'.
Writing on his own blog, Ben opened up about his previous experiences being bullied in school and how it instilled within him this belief that 'I was physically repulsive to women.'
He also explained how he was still a virgin despite going on more than 40 different dates with women and having two girlfriends.
After deciding to go on the show, Ben praised how the 'selection process was incredibly thorough' and said Channel 4 handled this matter 'sensitively'. More Trending
He went on to say: 'Despite, or perhaps because of, the rise of dating apps and social media, adult virgins in their 20s and early 30s are becoming increasingly common.
'Prime age adults are both more connected and yet paradoxically more isolated from one another than they've ever been.
'If this show helps to clear even a fraction of the stigma associated with being an adult virgin, it'll have all been worth it. Even if it doesn't, I know I got a lot out of it, and I don't regret taking part at all.'
