WARNING: CONVERSATION OF A GRAPHIC SEXUAL NATURE FOLLOWS:

Reportedly, the conversation began in the living room with a game of "I’ve never" underway. Participants included Marcellas and all the women except for Amy and Lori.

Lisa tells the group "I’ve never used a butt plug." Some laugh; others don’t know what it is. She says she had a boyfriend who wanted her to use one on him. She and Marcellas speak with assurance about what’s in it for the guy—how it affects the prostate. They compare the shape of a butt plug to "a fade".

They sound surprised that Danielle’s husband has never shown interest in being penetrated—their boyfriends ask for it all the time. Marcellas (who is gay) believes a male interest in this subject is a sign of latent gay tendencies.

Chiara, Lisa and Marcellas talk about the importance of cleanliness in anal sex, in language that’s by far too graphic to recount here. Danielle and Tonya mention (for at least the second time) that they are anal virgins. Tonya also says she's never had sex in a restaurant.

Chiara asks Marcellas if he’s ever "f**ked a dog." Marcellas whines, "I’m pretty vanilla." Marcellas mentions seeing dog/man anal sex on the Internet. He admits it was a bit nasty but strangely unforgettable.

Danielle says she has never had "breast sex". Tonya hasn’t either.

Lisa says she’s never had sex while someone else is in the room. Tonya says she and her boyfriend were driving "f***ed up" and her cousin was passed out in the back. They had sex while her cousin was back there.

Chiara talks about running into an old high school acquaintance, and the details are graphic enough to drive finally Danielle from the room.

Marecllas says he’s never been filmed while having sex. He’s "never had his Johnson it in public." Lisa talks about a videotape incident with her boyfriend. It had good production values, she said. They ask if she has the tape, and she says yes. Tonya talks about the tape she made with her boyfriend, they had to wait a month to put it on "the big screen", because the kids were around.

The conversation then drifts to same sex experiences. Lisa discusses having put on a girl/girl show for customers at Scores, where she once worked. Tonya had a one-time lesbian experience with a close friend, requested by her boyfriend. Chiara talks about having kissed women before. Josh is in the room now, but only listening. Josh announces he has kissed girls. He then says he’s never kissed a guy.

Marcellas says he’s never been involved in "water sports". Tonya says she has. Marcellas explains what water sports means in a sex context, and Tonya shakes her head—she thought he meant swimming! They talk about peeing in the shower, how that’s normal.

Josh joins the conversation with a recounting of how he once peed in bed while drunk--dreaming about being at a urinal and letting go.

Marcellas says he’s never brought food into the bedroom. Josh says he hasn’t either. Chiara giggles. She talks about drenching herself in honey to surprise her boyfriend. Her boyfriend gives her a surprise—"don’t you know I’m diabetic?"

Tonya talks about going at it with a can of whipped cream in the bedroom. They went to bed without washing, and stank the next morning—"nothing more rancid than spoiled milk on your skin."

Josh says an ex-girlfriend "pleasured herself" with a wine bottle and he drank out of it on the night Bill Clinton got elected. He says she’s going to hate him now.

Marcellas starts to leave. but the women ask him to stay—because Josh hasn’t asked him anything yet. Josh says he’s never had a male/male/female 3-way. They say we’ve already talked about that. They ask if he’s ever been with 2 women, and he says yes—a great story! It was the first time he dropped acid. He calls it "the most incredible, disgusting night" he’s ever had—the women were wild.

Lisa says when Big Brother came to pick her up for the show, she had 3 dildos out in the bedroom--she had used them right before work.

Amy walks by and reportedly says what seems to be the perfect closing line: "You all working on that Emmy?"

While CBS and Real Networks are certainly free to stream whatever they wish, many of the viewers I spoke with worried about the unexpected graphic nature of some of the content--particularly since the Big Brother 3 feeds are also available as part of the bundled Real Networks Real One Super Pass. As one concerned mother told me, "I'm paying ten bucks a month so my son can follow baseball, not learn the best ways to have sex in a car."

While CBS has so far declined to comment, a spokesperson for Real Networks notes that before users are able to access the audio/video feeds, a prominent disclaimer is displayed (which a user must click and accept) that lets users know that the feed is live and that some content might be unsuitable for users under 21. She also pointed out that all editorial decisions about what is broadcast are made by CBS.

And in fact the issue really isn't whether or not someone under the age of 21 can watch. The disclaimers are certainly obvious to anyone signing up for the feed. The question seems to be whether or not this is appropriate content for a production associated with CBS.

But perhaps the larger question is whether or not these contestants have really thought through the consequences of having this intimate of a discussion broadcast to the world. In particular, Tonya seems strangly oblivious to her behavior, although she often talks about protecting her kids.
