Torchwood star explains why he likes getting naked on set
Sunday, 10 August 2008
John Barrowman has explained why he's notorious for stripping off – he wants to change people's opinion of sex.
The 41-year-old star of Doctor Who and Torchwood says sex shouldn't been seen as something seedy or to be ashamed of.
‘I’m a true believer that sex is not dirty, it’s not bad, and that we should all lighten up a bit,’ he says.
‘We’re all brought up to think that it’s naughty, but it’s not. That’s why I get my balls out on set.’

THIS is why I love this man. People DO need to lighten up.
The human body is a beautiful thing in all its various forms. It's the soul that is sacred. Show it off, John!
Regardless if he finds flashing offensive or sex dirty, and despite the fact that, intellectually, I have no problem with nudity or sex, I would still find it threatening for someone to demand that I look at him naked regardless of whether it makes me uncomfortable. The "it's all in good fun" defense is not a defense, it's an excuse for not taking other people's feelings into consideration and trying to force your POV on others while belittling their opinions, which is one of the reasons why I don't like this man.
nothing wrong with sex its natural and i think once you seen one you seen them all may be only diffrence is size but then size isent everthing is how you men use it i think john barrowman you carry on i wouldent mind a look as long as nobody is upset about it then carry on people are so uptight about sex when its only second nature and if we all admited it we all enjoy it as much as the next person who ever we are i know i do
If you don't like it don't look. He doesn't do it in a way that is "Offensive" like a flasher does - he is totally right we need to embrace sex, it is ok for all the violence we are exposed to which is negative, but not ok to show we are comfortable with our bodies, embrace our sexuality or even love it?! This is why I love John, he's not afraid to be himself - as long as it doesn't hurt anyone, which it does not. Being offended is a choice! ;O) xxx
