I was chatting with Whimsy about Aussie v’s US teen shows last night. Growing up watching as much American TV as I could, with all of the fabulous UK shows mixed in, it is so obvious that there is some kind of gloss that deservedly belongs to US TV. I was comparing teen sex for instance, in Australian shows, it is rare for a couple of teens to just have at it, usually the build up can take months of debate and drama filled angst, that parents have enough time to make sure their kids never see the result, if in fact it does even happen, and you would probably never see anything more than them fumbling around. In US Shows that are geared towards teens – and no this isn’t a bash or me saying they are all like that – there is more of a lets do it, and there they go lol.
I remembered one such Aussie movie though that went all out, and that was the infamous Puberty Blues, so I went to Youtube in hopes of a snippet and somehow managed to watch the whole thing with Whimsy lol. Oh My Goodness what a crazy movie. Aussie’s everywhere probably just groaned remembering some of the worst scenes. Anyway, as nuts as the movie is, Whimsy was really surprised at how busy our beaches were, and what better way to celebrate that fact than to do a post on beachwear today.
