Sex and Alcohol in THE REAL WORLD
MTV has been putting seven strangers into a mansion for years, but none of the previous episodes have been so intoxicated and as sexually charged as "The Real World---New Orleans". There is Jamie, the typical good-looking frat-boy, Julie, the cute-yet sheltered Morman, Melissa, the confused and neurotic barbie doll, David, your typical (yet pumped up) pimp, Danny, the very hot, but very gay, sweetheart, Kelly, your sexy sorority sister, and Matt, the adorable hippy. By putting seven gorgeous people in one house, every roommate is attracted to everyone else. This is what the creators edit to show the public audiences, because sex sells. The MTV series "The Real World-New Orleans" encourages promiscuous behavior and alcohol abuse by putting seven beautiful people in a mansion with unlimited funds and no rules---suggesting to young adults that this is the way to live. Every episode is about the roommates going to a club, having a party, or who's doing who. Displaying to young adults and teens that this is how college kids act and that it's always a fun time, being that when your on TV, your a icon. The show displays that casual sex is ok in our society. In one episode, Danny cheats on his long time boyfriend while he is drunk,
claiming that it didn't mean anything, therefor, his boyfriend can't be mad at him. Meanwhile, on the same episode, David is sleeping with some girl who's name he doesn't even know, that he met at the club, while Matt is in the room, and the girls' friend is downstairs waiting for her. Kelly, is also being a hoe, by dating a doctor from New Orleans that already has a girlfriend. Kelly knows about the girlfriend, but does the girlfriend know about Kelly? On a recent episode, the roommates go out to a restaurant and decide to set Julie up with one of the waiters, because she needs to "hook-up" with someone. Later on she makes plans with the waiter, but ditches him for another guy that she met at a club. Poor, innocent, Morman, Julie has now become a casualty of "The Real World- New Orleans". In real life, sane people know not to go out and have sex with people they don't know. There are sexual transmitted diseases, pregnancy, angry girlfriends that are ready to kick some ass, and most of all AIDS. By putting this on TV, it infers that celebrities don't really worry about the consequences of there actions, why should I? Drinking all night, every night, is always fun in "The Real World". In many episodes the cast members drink until they are out of control. Melis
