Though not a man hater by any means, is there some reason it's called "junk"? LOL

You don't show the goods before you know someone. Ick. You don't make out naked with a dude who was kissing other chicks earlier in the day.

Bingo!!! I lost so much respect for Ben doing that, but I guess what guy would turn that down? Maybe someone older, more mature?

You guys are all cracking me up! I remember Susan Dey on the Partridge Family. I didn't have a crush on her, I just wanted to *be* her!

Courtney has no self respect, most of these girls don't have much, but Courtney's washed away with the surf...

I actually think many of the previous bachelors would have turned down the invite to go skinny dipping with just one woman at this point in the process when there are still so many women left and/or they are not yet at fantasy suite overnight dates. The only two that come to mind that I think would have done what Ben did are Bob and that Prince.

I am just not getting why Jennifer was cut. She was one of my picks to make it at least to the final four.

Agree Happymom. Wasn't there one season when one of the girls jumped in the pool at the mansion naked... She tried to get the bachelor to jump in with her and he declined... oh I cant remember who it was...

But Ben is the one making the cuts, not us! (or the producers, but, same thing.. not us.

That would be a far different show.

As for Ben's junk.. he definitely had his back to the camera ;)

I was still thinking when they flug their undies off toward their other clothing that surely the waves would roll in and the clothing would go out to sea <dot dot dot>

Good memory, BBL! I remember that, too! Thanks for reminding me. Can't remember who it was, though.

I was also shocked that he sent Jennifer home. I thought sure he'd send Emily home just because she couldn't stop bad-mouthing Courtney. I thought Jennifer would be around a lot longer. They seemed to connect on their Park City date.

That rings a bell, I can't remember who it was though. Maybe it was too far back. I can't remember them all in order past Brad, his first season. (That season led to Deanna's who led to Jason's, etc ... all the way through Ben.) Maybe it was Travis or Andy or Andrew?

Blakely reminds me a lot of Trish Schneider who was on Jesse's season. (Maybe she was the one in the pool naked?)

Sigh.....now I know one of my dating issues. I didn't realize that skinny dipping was in the "getting to know you" process.

(And LOL at Glenn. And not because he was naked on national TV with his junk in his hand. This time.)

Ok, we all have an issue with her getting naked, I can't wrap my head around them doing it in front of camera people too.

And the ever popular Jersey Shore. I hate to think my DS is getting some of his sex education thru those shows....

I don't want my girls thinking it's ok to run around butt nekkid with boys they barely know while the whole world watches....I don't want them growing up in 'that' world!

The entire concept of The Bachelor show is pretty wacky to say the least. Skinny dipping probably only makes it a little more so.

True.. after all.. this is the show where the seeker goes to the 'fantasy suite' maybe three times with three different people..

Yes, the Fantasy Suite seems a lot more intimate than skinny dipping on an open beach.

and all yuk....about that whole fantasy suite thing! This person is in a sexual environment with 3 different folks. What the hey!!!! Do you have to be the "best" at "it" to go to the final visit w/"their" family & the final rose ceremony.

I think there were two women who refused the Fantasy Suite in the past and they were dumped.

For Auntiemike......the reason why it is called junk

Junk; something you keep around because you think you may be able to make use of it one day, yet most everyone else will see it as worthless and unwanted.
