A prime-time TV show has caused outrage over the humiliation of naked women paraded in front of male 'judges'.
The programme features a series of silent women who walk in to a studio and slip out of their bathrobes in front of a leering host and his guest.
The pair then openly run heir eyes over the nude guests - and controversially judge the women on their bodies.
In a surreal clip, host Thomas Blachman asks one: "Would you mind turning around for a moment" ...because he likes bottoms.
He then make crude comments about her breasts.
Critics have blasted the "Blachman" show, hosted by Thomas Blachman, over its sexist humiliation of women. However Blachman, a jazz musician who claims to have created the concept, says he is a "genius". The bald presenter said the aim was to "stir discussion about the aesthetics of the female body without allowing the conversation to become pornographic or politically correct".
He continued: "I told them the entire idea of the show is to let men talk about the bodies of naked women while the woman is standing right in front of them.
"The female body thirsts for words. The words of a man. And they went for it."
The show on Denmark's public service DR2 channel has attracted a storm of criticism since launching. Blachman has even fled to his home in New York to escape the uproar.
He said: "Ungratefulness is the only thing that can really wear down the few geniuses who reside in our country.
Remember, I am giving you something that you have never seen before. Don't bite the hand that feeds you." While DR2 channel producer Sofia Fromberg also made a staunch defense of the show.
She said: "We have a programme that reveals what men think about the female body. Quite honestly, what is wrong with that?
Really ...what is wrong with that? this people will do anytime for ratings and money. Shameful.
Its called a "Private Parts" for a reason ....fool
