Le basi del piacere

The information provided is very basic and yet the guests are extremely ignorant to the point where it feels satirical. "what is a vulva? Is it the hamburger bits?"

It's weirdly reductive and judgemental. We figured out objective physics before subjective sex biology - why is that so surprising? Is understanding minor orgasm details as important as Newtonian physics? A lot of anti-science talk in favor of politics.

The structure of the show is very flat. They present some basic information and more niche information at the same presentation level.

So, it's a constant battle between "this is so cringey and borderline stupid" to "oh that's pretty cool".

This would have been great few decades back. I give it benefit of a doubt maybe it's intended for some conservative countries which I can appreciate, but for developed world in 2022, unfortunately, it's more cringey than educational or entertaining.

I was surprised to see the low rating but then I read some reviews. Well, what can I say? The show is great, it speaks to all kinds of women of very different backgrounds and I felt very understood in many ways. It's a real opening-eye documentary about women's sexuality but men can (and should) also learn a lot with it. But I guess a bunch of conservative people didn't like it? Well, to bad for you.

Very educational. Modern in the sense of not being afraid to ask questions and talk about your body. More women-focused but that's the theme, especially when discussing the principles of pleasure. Engaging documentary.

Most of these horrible reviews are coming from guys who cannot watch a female centric show without pulling their hair out. Ignore the negative reviews and see this for yourself.

I have just watched E1 of this mini series. If this is how it continues, I can hardly wait to see E2 and E3. Even if they don't turn out to be as good (although I think E2 will be because, the mind is the biggest sexual organ), watching E1 again is definitely worth it.

As a 60+ wsm (white straight male) I broke the episode into 3 parts, what I already knew, what I suspected, and what I didn't know at all. The last part was an eye opener, and the saddest part was, the mapping of the clitoris NOT being done until 2005.

What a shock, and what a disgrace, not on the part of the woman that did but, on the many who didn't, both female AND male.

As to the idea of orgasm being a means to overcome insomnia, is definitely something to think about (the "story" of men turning over and instantly falling asleep, should've been a clue).

There is so much more I could say but, I won't, it would spoil for those who will watch, enjoy, and learn. The "negative" comments I won't look at, to do so would mean these "people" exist. It's people like them that has given rise to a brilliant series like this, that sadly, shouldn't have had to be made in the first place.

I will definitely watch the rest, and most definitely watch the first episode again. There was so much information to try and take in, I need to hear it again to try and digest. Cudos to all the women involved, it is a master learning tool. Well done.
