Amount of Nudity/Sex
by
A. Scott
Methods/Results: Television
In order to evaluate effectively the amount of sex and nudity on British television, a lot of watching would have to be done. The definition of sex to be applied would be kissing leading into fondling, groping, leading towards the illusion of intercourse. A sex scene will not count if its kissing leads to a resolution scene in the bedroom or wherever the act has taken place. Nudity in documentary shows such as national geographic will not be counted. The information will be gathered randomly over a short period of time and averaged out.
