1. nearly all of them are not gay, i'm sure. rugby is just different. nudity is normal in rugby, for some reason, thank you great spirit! but at least one or two of them are definitely curious or more. i bet the big cock guy has fucked at least one of those hot bubble asses.

2. Oh, no doubt they were loaded. And there's homophobia o'er seas too, my point being remains: socially and culturally, there's simply more tolerance there than here. In GENERAL.

   It's also an age thing; I'm focusing MORE on their reactions to viewing the evidence; they were high-fiving and laughing. There were no deragory names called, no "ewwws, gross." It was all in good fun. I agree with Tim, too. Rugby guys are just wired differently. I lived with rugby players throughout college. Frankly, they can be odd (again, a GENERALIZATION,) but good, good (albeit uninhibited) guys...

5. There's a real audience out there for this pretty, narcissistic young things "gone wild" sort of thing, isn't there?

   I guess I'm missing the substance abusers are so sexy part.

7. Someone seriously needs to tell me how to download that video. I tried the usual - looking for the file in the Activity window in Safari and the Page Info window in Firefox - but couldn't find it.

10. The saying is SO true...there really IS no such thing as a totally straight man when the right opportunity comes along. That's just nature. Women can just "Suck it" as Kathy Griffin says.

    haha, lol....some gay men really are competitive with women, aren't they? Guess what, sweetheart...you're losing....

12. Don't see what all the fuss is about. Scenes from a typical night out with the rugby boys; they're renowned for these sorts of pissed-up antics. The 'boys/girls gone wild' shows are kinda old hat now..

13. Just a bit of context to English rugby: it's generally or historically an upper-class sport, traditionally played in public schools (in true English contradictory terminology, a "public school" is in fact an elite, very expensive private school), where communal nudity (in showers, dormitories) is or was common, and, er, "experimenting" with other boys, while not common, is hardly unusual in early years.

    The traditional English public schoolboy rugby player is therefore generally socially more confident, maybe more arrogant, and not as paranoid about nudity as Americans seem to be.

    The type of behaviour in this TV programme is not untypical of young, wealthy and - more to the point – very pissed rugby players. In this particular case, there are rumours that the TV company “encouraged” excessive antics with cash and booze; mind you, I doubt the lads needed much encouragement. Let’s face it, a group of accountants on a well-behaved night out wouldn’t make for good TV.

    Sorry to disappoint, but I doubt very much any of them are gay, even when drunk; while there is a degree of more tolerance, paradoxically they just wouldn’t consider this type of behaviour “gay”. As pointed out above, none of them were embarrassed when viewing the film (although one player did allude to some teammates who seemed more keen than others on certain antics). It’s all seen as par for the course on a normal lads’ night out; the only difference in this case was that it was caught on film. Most of the time, none of them would remember much the next morning.

    PS I know there are a lot of generalisations above, so please, no tirade of abuse!
