Planet Sex con Cara Delevigne

This is everything you'd expect in a documentary about the sexual subjects that have been historically considered taboo. And Cara at the center of it diving in and experiencing and learning about why these subjects have been labelled as such and how to overcome that stigma in some very interesting forms.

When it comes to this type of show the 2 elements I always look for are first is the show itself interesting? And second is it educational? To me the first part not so much, the second part a little. However I personally have spent a great deal of time researching these subjects for decades before this show was even conceptualized. So the real question becomes would this show appeal to you? For the vast majority, it would definitely be educational, and for a much smaller but still large group of people it would be quite entertaining so yea, for a good group people it would be good.

5/10 for me, I'm thinking more like 7/10 for everyone else. For informational purposes it's a good documentary.

I'm so happy I came across this series on Hulu . I am a lesbian and I also happen to find Cara is gorgeous! Okay that aside, I had no idea what to expect of this show. I do not follow Cara's career closely or her personal life. Right before I started watching the show I googled what kind of person is Cara. I read a little bit about her but I feel like she really brings her heart and quirky personality to this series. I feel like I have a good idea what kind of person she is now from watching her truly open up and be herself while hosting this series. She is emotional throughout and uncomfortable a lot of times. She doesn't hold anything back.

I'm only on episode 2 so I'm writing my review before having seen all the episodes. Based on what I've seen from the first episode, I would say that this series seems to cater more to women who like women. However this show does an excellent job exploring differences of gender vs sexual orientation. It also delves into a lot of experimental science around orgasms, monogamy, and sexual identity. It's interesting and I'm enjoying it. I love that they chose Cara to lead ans the show is also an exploration for her to explore her queer identity and confront deep feelings of shame that have long surrounded her sexuality. So many of us LGBTQ+ people carry the same shame she described, myself included, so I could really relate with her on that.

I've only watched the first episode -- the one on the "orgasm gap" -- and didn't feel it was worth persevering with this series.

While I appreciate I'm not part of the target demographic, I'm dubious that this will go down well with those who really should lap it up (teenagers, presumably).

Cara Delevingne seems remarkably prudish to be cast in the lead here. And this first episode felt incredibly unstructured and unfocussed. Even someone like Stacey Dooley would probably have done a better job. And perhaps Zara McDermott would have been the best choice, given her experience in documentary film making?

This series is hugely important. It covers topics which lack honest, sex positive mainstream coverage such as female pleasure/orgasms, ethical porn/the issues caused by mainstream stereotypical porn, sexuality, gender, relationships etc. Her honesty is refreshing, although it's sad to hear about the deep rooted shame Cara has regarding sex and sexuality. She seems naive in some ways but given her life it's not really surprising - you can see that she pushes herself out of her comfort zone making this series. Cara only briefly discusses her sexual experiences with men but it's depressing - it's shocking to me, as someone who has always been confident communicating about sex and my needs - and just shows how much these conversations need to be had. I think this should be mandatory viewing for teenagers.

If you're already aware of sex positivity, ethical porn and diversity then it's nothing groundbreaking but the fact that these topics are receiving mainstream attention in such an insightful, positive way is huge.

It is rare to find the depth and consciousness Cara Delevingne devotes to exploring the vast range of material brought to light in Planet Sex. If for no reason other than that this series merits attention, but there is so much more.

The openness with which those interviewed respond to Delevingne's questions, and Delevingne's own genuine presence, result in a synergy that enhances each episode. The episodes are interesting, informative, touching, tender, inspiring, at times infuriating and always courageous.

It takes courage to be open, honest, and present. Each episode revealed the burdens placed upon anyone striving to be open, honest, and present. It's really all any of us want but struggle to find given the systematized external constraints that shame, punish, and seek to destroy those qualities tied to our essential humanity.

Planet Sex may be an investigation into areas of human sexual behavior, sexual orientation and gender identity but the series also sheds light on the shadow side of forces inhibiting behavior, orientation, identity, and sexual expression.
