What is voyeurism?
- 00:14
Voyeurism is when we have the urge to
- 00:18
see other people in intimate settings.
- 00:20
With reality TV, this is what we're doing all the time.
- 00:22
A lot of people would say,
- 00:23
"It's not voyeurism. We're not watching them have sex."
- 00:25
But we are watching them in some incredibly intimate situations.
- 00:29
And it's just this desire that we all have
- 00:31
to see what other people's lives are like.
- 00:34
Again, from the tamest people-watching
- 00:38
to why you turn and look when there's a car accident
- 00:42
or why you wanna watch the video on YouTube
- 00:45
of someone dying.
- 00:47
Something about seeing into other people's lives
- 00:49
just grabs us and always has.
- 00:51
And that's absolutely what we're doing with reality TV.
- 00:53
Whether you're doing it to feel superior to someone
- 00:55
or to then go blog about it or whatever,
- 00:57
we're doing it because we wanna see a snippet of someone else's life.
