Okay,
Just wondering if I am sadly out of touch or am rightly perturbed here.
My daughter is 10. She has recently gone on Instagram. Very easy to police and I can see everything she is doing, so no problem there. My daughter is also quite naive for her age.
Anyway, bottom line, is all her classmates have been posting up pictures of their presents on Instagram and 3 10 year old girls have said they have got The Inbetweeners and the Inbetweeners 2 on DVD as gifts.
I was very shocked. I have seen the first one and do remember it being a 15 cert and quite graphic. I understand the 2nd one is more so.
Here is the parental guide from IMDB for Inbetweeners 1.
Sex and Nudity rating: 9/10
A lot crude sex references, both visualand mentioned in the dialogue. Dialogue is crass and explicit.
A teenager masturbates while a woman on a webcam talks sexually to him, he is seen completely nude covering his genitals.
The four main characters all wear shirts that say "Pussay Patrol", and have images of cats with giant erect penises on the front.
A teenager is having sex with a much older woman, you hear minor noises but its only really confirmed by the teenager talking about it briefly.
A teenager is seen fingering (not explicitly) an older woman. Played for laughs.
A boy pulls a teenager's pants down and his genitals are seen in explicit detail for quite a bit.
A male erotic dancer strips and is then implied to perform fellatio on himself. Very explicit scene with full frontal nudity.
Characters are shown undressing in order to swim naked in the sea - the shots are from behind.
A character gropes a girls naked breast. (shown for about 2 seconds). The breasts are exposed but not too clear as the scene is dark.
A girl and a boy are shown "dry humping" each other- both are fully clothed.
A teenager is made to sell his clothes, and is bullied into selling what he is wearing; he covers his genitals with his hands. A hint of genitals can be seen.
Graphic male frontal nudity and a lot of crass dialogue.
Profanity 7/10
2 uses of "c**t"; one used as a harsh comment towards a character, and the other is used straight after by another character, denying the first comment ("she's not a c**t!").
3 "c**t"s in the uncut blu-ray, the two mentioned above and a more harsh, aggressive one. In the dvd, James says 'You're not fucking alright anywhere you scrawny little shit'. In the blu-ray version he says ' You're not fucking alright anywhere you scrawny little c**t'.
'Fuck' and 'Shit' are used almost 100 times each, used from the beginning on to the end constantly.
Frequent uses of strong obscenities, including: "dick", "twat", "pussy", "wanker", "bastard", "minge", "muff", "cock", "wank", "dickhead", "arsehole", "tits", "clunge", "bitch", and "gash" are all used, among others.
Milder language is infrequent; "damn", "hell", "bumhole" and "arse".
All done for comedy and is done in necessary places it is not said with out a reason.
And here is Inbetweeners 2
Sex and Nudity 10/10
Frequent crude verbal references to oral and anal sex, erections, masturbation, and semen.
After explaining a sex move called the "All In One", one of the main characters demonstrates a move in which he humps a woman once then gets out of bed. Nothing is shown.
Various women are implied to be performing oral sex under a bed sheet. Nothing is shown.
One of the main character's testicles is seen dangling as he plays pool in a short skirt.
A dog licks the same previously mentioned character's testicles. Very graphic scene.
One character talks about the number of dog penises a person can fit in their mouth.
One character is said to have gotten an erection when a female dog in heat rubbed her vagina against his leg and some of her fluids dipped down him. It is unclear whether this is true or not.
A main character puts his hand where another main character has masturbated, and therefore has semen on his hand. Not graphic, more implied.
A picture of a topless woman is painted on the front of the car that the four main characters drive around in.
An older woman begins to strip. No nudity is shown.
A main character and a girl begin to have sex when they are interrupted by another main character masturbating to the sight of it under bed sheets. After this, the girl guides the guy's hand down her shorts and he begins to move his arm up and down (implying fingering). He is interrupted by another character.
Various male characters are seen shirtless at a Water Park.
Two main characters go swimming in the kids pool at a Water Park in order to find another character when one of them mentions that the other is a paedophile, and then pushes him onto a small boy. His head lands between the boys legs, making it look like he is performing oral sex on him.
Two characters are seen having sex. Not very graphic, they are in the background of the scene, thrusting up and down and moaning loudly.
A main character creates a penis shape out of stones in a desert.
The main characters discuss one of them urinating or masturbating into their mouths to survive the heat of a desert. Eventually we see the character mentioned urinate onto another character's tongue before urinating on his face.
Two characters are seen french kissing. Very detailed scene.
A group of Thai ladyboys are seen sitting around a table with the main characters, the camera pans underneath the table, showing their penises. Very graphic scene.
Profanity 10/10
Over 100 uses of "Fuck", Two uses of "c**t", as well as many other milder profanities such as "Shit" "Bastard" "Twat" "Prick" "Piss" "Wank" "Bitch" "Knob".
Now I'm no prude and I have a reasonably liberal view on what my daughter can and cannot see. Usually I watch everything first and then deem it suitable or not, but there is no way I would let her watch either of these 2 films.
She is in Year 6 and in the next term they are getting their sex education classes.
Have to say I am shocked at any parent who would let their 10 year old daughter watch any film with the above sort of content.
Would just like to gauge everyone elses thoughts on this and would like to know what you would and would not and did and did not let your children watch.
Obviously what I think will happen now, is that while I will never let my daughter watch this at her age, this will all be the talk of the playground and both films will be described in gory detail.
Would very much appreciate other people's views and I think getting a male perspective in relation to a feamle daughter here is quite important.
So ..........
