are total cunts.

“Married At First Sight” is one of the latest excretions of reality TV ordure to befoul our sensibilities, the premise of which is a man and a woman who have never met before encounter each other for the first time at the altar and immediately get married. Let’s not even get in to the sheer moronic idiocy of the concept, but let’s address the motives of the participants submitting themselves to this spectacle; in particular the women.

These smooching, botoxed, social media socialites are doing this for one reason; fame. They fantasise about having their faces plastered across millions of tv screens, the foundation for launching a multi-million pound social media career as “an influencer”.

But they don’t evaluate the risks of the method by which they plan to achieve this end. What is “MAFS” really about? It’s
not some gaslighting bullshit about love and romance is it. It’s about shagging. The men aren’t participating because they’ve got some fluffy notion they’re going to meet their soulmate and life partner. They fancy boning one of the inevitably trim pert pretty young fillies that the casting director will have chosen to glamourise this circus.

And so it is revealed that several of the female contestants are now claiming they were raped. When reading their accounts, we learn that on meeting a strange man for the first time they get hitched to him and immediately jump in the sack; a forced actualisation of the tradition of consummation. Now it turns out that sometimes hubby decides he’s giving her one whether she likes it or not, because, surprise surprise, that’s what he came here for. And yet the ladies are surprised to learn that the men who’ve volunteered for this sham are sexual predators.

I am the father of a daughter and do not endorse women being sexually assaulted nor excuse the actions of the men in this case. But I have to ask the question; how far were these silly tarts willing to go in order to be famous, and have they considered the alternative path of attaining status and distinction through the old fashioned method of hard work and achievement?
