SARAH VINE: The tawdry saga of a British rape accuser who partied with 12 Israeli men in Ayia Napa reveals the ugly truth about the legacy of Love Island There’s no doubt in my mind that shows like Love Island, which finished on Monday night, have their part to play in this lack of personal responsibility. Its entire premise is to get semi-naked men and women to have sex with each other for the entertainment of the viewing public. And when they do, the morality of what’s going on is never called into question on the show. Instead, the contestants are rewarded with prize money and lucrative contracts, all predicated on their willingness to bare almost all in an ever- decreasing spiral of self-abasement. Depressingly, the live viewing figures for this week’s finale hit a record high of 3.6 million. That’s an awful lot of people swallowing the message that casual hook-ups are a natural — even expected — part of a sun-kissed trip abroad. I don’t deny I’ve watched Love Island with my daughter and found it diverting enough. Some will say I’m being an old prude. But when the amoral code it promotes lands a British teenager in a Cypriot courtroom after a liaison with a group of men, surely no one can deny there’s something sick at the heart of this hedonism. Because, let’s face it, this sort of feral behaviour is becoming increasingly common. Indeed, among certain groups of people in certain situations — on holiday, under the influence of alcohol or drugs — it has become the norm. As, too, has the practice of sharing exploits on social media. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/a...ve-Island.html |

as if LI is too blame for this
it's still your own choice what you do on holidays, very easy for a mediocre tabloid like dailyfail (who enjoy making articles related to LI) to shove this on a tv show, just because they need to protect that girl who happens to be british here in my country there are worse shows than LI and still not everyone in our youth gets drunk and has sex on holidays, most who i knew on one dutch forum usually watch these sort of tv shows for light entertainment purpose only without thinking too much about it pathetic ''attempt'' from dailyfail to bring down LI but this won't work

It's time for people to take responsibility for their own actions without looking for someone or something to blame.

yep and that goes for boys as well as girls, just being in that group of boys is enough to be tarred even if they had no involvement

TV imitating life, imitating TV imitating life.
As has been said, personal responsibility goes a long way. |

Misleading title. You forgot to add "according to sensationalist tabloid hack".
Also I don't think the winners of this year's Love Island gave each other more than a peck on the lips and a cuddle . Really reaching. I mean if they'd said Geordie Shore or Ex On The Beach even... But Love Island? it's not exactly an orgy. |
