Coleslaw Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Hi all, I very rarely like drawing attention to myself, but I think a lot of people might want a heads up about this? On February 13th (As a Valentine's Day special, no less), the Discovery Channel will be airing a TV documentary on The Science of Lust. It's goal is to explore most aspects of human sexuality, and this year (in apparently the last 15 minutes) they'll be showcasing asexuality. Member Phoenix9 and myself will be in this, so hopefully it'll be a positive portrayal of asexuality. According to the producer, it'll air at 9 PM EST/PST, however, my parents set a recording for 6 PM PST. If anyone is interested... Yea. It's happening. Happy Valentine's Day? (Oh god, I'm so awkward. Sorry all.) Link to post Share on other sites
michaeld Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Sounds great! I wish I could watch it. Anyone feel like recording it and putting it on youtube (provided this doesn't cause any copyright issues)? Link to post Share on other sites
Slavaa Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Aww, I thought this said "Lust of Science", and I'd certainly be interested in that. This could be interesting, too, though. Link to post Share on other sites
NotAllHere Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I'll have to see if I can't watch that at work- or go somewhere and watch it as I don't have a t.v.! I hope i get to see it; sounds interesting. So, you're going to be ON the show? Cool! Link to post Share on other sites
eee Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 holly shit, i 'll be home from working, i'll watch it with romeburns together I guess. Woot woot for you, I hope it's good. I am so happy for you and I'll cheer you on! Link to post Share on other sites
Phoenix9 Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 ^-^ Awesome. Not sure how awkward it'll be watching this show with parental units possibly in the vicinity... ...unfortunately, this airing seems to be US-only. Does someone want to be our friendly southern neighbour and record it for us? Link to post Share on other sites
Dante137 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I want to watch too! But I don't have cable, so... would someone be kind enough to record it for those of us unable to watch? I'm interested to see how they approach this... And cake for Coleslaw for being on TV and representing! :cake: Link to post Share on other sites
Elliekat Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I doubt my parents would let me see it. I'd really appreciate it if someone could get it up, though! Link to post Share on other sites
Nessy Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 This is awesome! I'll be sure to watch it (unless my dormmates grab the tv from me... I won't let it happen!). Link to post Share on other sites
NotAllHere Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 It's going to be awkward; I'm going to be watching at my dad's with my sister, and that could quite possibly be either the worst or the best idea in the world. It will definitely be awkward. I'd offer to record, but I'd only be able to get it to VHS, so I don't think that helps anyone else out. Link to post Share on other sites
NotAllHere Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Congratulations, guys! The show was pretty good. I do think it's too bad they didn't do more to actually differeniate between the two things, but at least the word is getting out there! Link to post Share on other sites
GirlDreamer Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Aaaw, I missed it :( Is it available anywhere online? Link to post Share on other sites
michaeld Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Aaaw, I missed it :( Is it available anywhere online? I do not have a TV so I'm hoping it'll eventually be online too. Link to post Share on other sites
Rilig Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Damn, I missed it. Anything interesting said in it? Link to post Share on other sites
Dante137 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 It seems a download of the show is up; http://www.fileserve.com/file/bXRKKKd/Discovery.Channel.The.Science.of.Lust.HDTV.XviD-DiVERGE.avi It seems like this is the correct show (I didn't watch it, so those who did, please let me know.), and the quality is pretty good here. Also, just for the sake of liability, I do not own this program; it belongs to Discovery Channel, and I offer this download link to the people who were unable to watch it on TV for various reasons (i.e. Don't have cable, missed it and it's not playing again, etc.). I expect you to watch it like you would on TV or on the internet and then delete it. I don't think I'm violating any rules of the forums here, but if I am, please feel free to remove this, friendly forum mods. [Edit] I got to the part about asexuality finally. It was interesting (although short) and actually did present good information about asexuality. It was kinda cool, knowing that it was you in the show, Coleslaw. :) Way to represent!

Phoenix9 Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 :) Excellent. I found a torrent as well. The show's very informative of what I've watched so far. Link to post Share on other sites
UraNepu Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Thank you so much for putting this up! I don't have a TV, even if I did, they do not broadcast such programs here! EDIT: I was hopping for the asexual part to be a bit longer, but you guys did great and explained it very good :cake: :cake: :cake: for you ^_^ Link to post Share on other sites
