Recently I noticed a dearth of research on Girls Gone Wild videos. With the noblest of intentions, I decided to see for myself what all the hubbub was about.
For thoe of you who don’t know, this is a series of softcore videos that basically involve young ladies baring their breasts for no other reason than to “earn” a t-shirt that says “Girls Gone Wild” on it. (It’s a lot like getting beads at Mardi Gras in New Orleans.)
Now, some of the time I can understand why these girls are doing what they’re doing - they’re drunk off their asses. But it doesn’t appear to me, after extensive research, that many of these girls actually are intoxicated - they seem to me to be in complete control of their faculties.
So why are these girls doing it?
Let me add this, too. Some of the scenes are on a beach. The crew approaches a girl, asks to see her breasts, and offers t-shirts. The girl agrees, but then says… “Oh, <tee hee> I don’t want the whole beach to see!”
Does she not see the camera crew? Does she not know this is Girls Gone Wild, and that she’ll be on a video for millions and millions of horny guys to see? Weird.
So how many of these videos did you buy dear dan? Did you get the set? How many times have you watched them before you decided you needed to know why these women are showing their breasts?
One of my roommates was a secretary in a large law firm in Tallahassee this past summer, and there was apparently a large “Girls Gone Wild” case pending from one of the girls pictured on the box and in one of the commercials.
I say, if you’re ready to flash a girls gone wild video camera, you have no right to complain when you turn up in the video commercial!
Reckon it’s an Aussie thing? Quite a few girls I know aren’t past drunkenly flashing their boobs at a crowd. It’s particularly common in summer, when young people tend to travel away from home.
Heck, I’ve done it myself. Although, my male boobs probably wouldn’t garner a free t-shirt from anyone. :o
It makes less sense when you consider those who make the GGW videos make tons of money off of it, and the girls in it dont get a dime… oh wait they do get that niffty t-shit.
Well, this came about when I picked up a package from the post office yesterday. “GGW,” it said on the outside. Opened it up, and lo and behold it’s a Girls Gone Wild tape.
I didn’t remember ordering one. But it’s possible! They don’t arrive just a few days after ordering, like most things - these take a few weeks, for some reason.
So anyhoo, I opened it and checked it out. It’s a lot like the other two I have. Again, pure research.
Now, I’m not in “awe” of their breasts, and they seem to be pretty enamored of themselves, anyway. Which is all well and good, but all for a lousy t-shirt? Weird, I say, weird.
Yeah, I know they seem pretty damn stupid. It’s just that this isn’t a secret - these cameras aren’t hidden. These girls know the tape’s running, and they show off for it. Just seems odd that some of them would flash to the cameraman, like he’s the only one who’s gonna see it, but not to the beach or the bar where it’s being taped.
Oh, and every now and then the camera follows two girls back to their room for some really good stuff. I keep thinking, “Don’t they worry that their parents might see this someday? Or find out about it?”
I mean, after all, it’s not like these are professionals making a porno tape; these girls are in public places doing this stuff. Only a matter of time before Papa Smurf in the family sees his lil red Smurfette’s nips on the TV.
Actually, Violet, The Man Show did a parody of girls gone wild called Guys gone wild where they were getting spring break footage of guys mooning the camera, spanking each other, cliff diving naked, etc. It came with ‘candid nut shots’ in which they have footage of guys who are ‘peeking’ out of their shorts. Pretty funny parody.
dan, have you ever been to the beach on spring break? with hoards and hoards of college students? if you have, it should be clear. it doesn’t matter what you’re really like, the stupidity is contagious.
i went to daytona last spring break, considered one of the tamer college hot spots. i was with a non-drinking crowd, and didn’t drink myself, but there were so many stupid, crazy people there that it rubs off. my roommate and i look at our pictures and say, “damn, we look skanky.”
although i don’t think i would have been so stupid as to flash for a video. my mom would find out, somehow :eek:
