Girls Gone Wild

I thought I'd try and get a few more blog posts up and running seeing as it's been a while since anything was published, so I thought I'd stick up a few shorter posts linking into other things you might have heard about.
Number 1 on the list for today is the news that the US TV show Girls Gone Wild is planning its first UK tour and will be aired on Sky. If you're unfamiliar with the concept of the show, this is it in a nutshell: a camera crew go round clubs and bars and, in exchange for free GGW t-shirts, caps, nipple tassels and 30 seconds of dubious glory, they persuade women to flash, dance, strip, kiss each other, and fake sex acts. From what I understand, GGW is huge in the US and women need little persuasion to showcase their skills for the cameras.
If you think you can stomach it, you can see an average clip here.
According to the Scottish Coalition Against Sexual Exploitation, GGW will be undertaking its first UK in May 2011.
There is a campaign running to stop the UK tour from being allowed - if you follow this link you can download a standard letter and send it onto your MPs, Councils, Sky TV and anyone else you think is appropriate. Hopefully it's not too late to stop this women-hating trash 'entertainment' from being giving air time in the UK.
Spread the word!
