I don't understand. Big brother is simply voyerism as far as I could tell from that few minutes I once watched it. That set bar for me. I do not watch any form of so-called 'reality television' because there's no such thing and because it embarrasses me to see people humiliated.
It's my position that the christian churches (at least) are preoccupied with sex because it's a powerful form of social control. The church has always been about control and guilt.
The original Big Brother from Nineteen Eighty-Four. There's quite a lot written in that book about the Party's obsession with controlling sex, and why. Religions, by and large, do the same kind of thing as described in the book.
