LONDON -- Gone are gay videos older straight daddies try anal sex for first timethe days of boring, straightforward dating shows where people meet each other for the first time wearing clothes and chat about their hobbies and stuff.
Forget about it. That's been done, it's old hat. We need to find a different way.
"Modern dating has become a complicated business," says the narrator at the start of new Channel 4 show, Naked Attraction. "Status symbols, online profiles and the clothes we wear can all get in the way of finding our perfect mate... but what would happen if we were stripped of all the things that usually define us?"

The concept of Naked Attractionis a simple one: a contestant goes on the show, gets shown six naked people (bit by bit, starting with the genitals), and basically eliminates them one at a time. At the end of the segment they get naked themselves, hug the person they've picked, then go on a fully-clothed date with them somewhere down the line to see if they actually like each other.
The show aired on Monday night, and the #NakedAttraction hashtag quickly picked up steam on Twitter.
Channel 4 kicked things off with an important poll and some creative emoji use.
