Australian Sky host’s fury as Dutch TV show films naked adults in front of children in trans episode

An Australian Sky News presenter has furiously branded a Dutch TV show filming adults stripping naked in front of children aged 10 and up as ‘madness’ after an episode devoted to trans bodies.

Presenter Rita Panahi denounced “disturbing content” on the show Simply Bloot (Simply Naked in English) where, in a recent episode, “transgender people undressed in front of children.”

The program shows Dutch children aged 10 to 12 the naked bodies of adults so that they can ask questions. In this transgender edition of the show, the kids asked about “vaginoplasty” and the double mastectomy.

This comes after the similar British show Naked Education, which airs on Channel 4, was hit with nearly 1,000 complaints to Ofcom.

Many viewers were outraged after the show’s debut last week, expressing concern about seeing a group of adults stripping naked in front of teenagers.

The program sparked outrage online, but now Britain’s broadcasting regulator has received formal complaints about the controversial programme.

Viewers were frustrated with nudity on the show and the fact that the youth participants on the program were between the ages of 14 and 16.

The Dutch program Simply Naked was criticized before it first aired on March 21, but Dutch public broadcaster NOS said it created the show to promote body positivity and give young people a realistic view of the human body.

Host Edson da Graça said, “The goal is to teach kids that every body is different and that not all bodies are perfect.”

In a clip from the show, he said, “Today our guests are transgender, so it’s not just men and women. In addition to male and female, there is a whole spectrum of sexes.’

One transgender person on the program said they felt “euphoric” after their sex reassignment surgery. They said, ‘I woke up and I knew my breasts were gone. That it looked the way I always wanted it to. It finally matched how I felt inside and that made me ecstatic.”

On her show Sky News Australiaasked Rita Panahi, “Why is it necessary to expose children to this and normalize it on television?”

She added: “They’re trying to use so-called diversity and inclusion as a cover for all this madness and if you object that’s their defense.

“No, this is just to make sure kids aren’t ashamed of their bodies and to make sure people have different body shapes — and different genders identifying as other genders.”

“I think this is going to be one of those sleepy issues that people are paying more and more attention to.”

Viewers of Naked Education on Channel 4 were frustrated with nudity in the show and the fact that the young people taking part in the program were aged between 14 and 16.

Clips from the show shared on Twitter sparked some terrifying debate. One user wrote: ‘There is a Dutch TV show called “Simply Naked” where naked adults present themselves to children.

“This episode it’s trans adults flashing their…bodies at the kids. HOW the F*** is this legal?’

However, another Twitter user from the Netherlands defended the show saying, ‘I live in the Netherlands. This is just one episode of this show. It normalizes any naked body and allows children to interact with it in an educational way.

“There’s nothing in it that isn’t backed by science and you just saw a right-wing political ad about it.”
