| The DJs boast and encourage (hetero) sexual bravado; a show may start with host or listener "confessions" or jokes about deflowering virgins, overpowering wives or girlfriends who are into unwanted sexual behaviors or a secret experience--one that usually contains transgressive undertones, hinting at homoeroticism or other highly taboo sexual topics. Authority forces assigned to protect the virginity of a young woman find that job challenging since to the male, the virgin is the loose woman, the untamed one ripe for deflowering and ready for masculine control (62; 73-79). His lecherous pals include Dino (Sean Faris), who devotes all his energy to deflowering his girlfriend (Missy Peregrym) - ``There's something about being the first guy there,'' he leers wistfully - and Jonathan (Chris Lowell), who's reticent about pursuing a relationship with his platonic pal (Kelly Osbourne - perhaps Jon has glimpsed her gene pool). |
