i~m watching a game show that i can~t believe is being aired. 7 contestants are on stage and they are asked to say how long they last when they have sex. then, their spouses are interviewed and they have to say how long the contestant lasts. whomever gets closest wins. it~s hilarious becuase some men say they last 45 minutes and the wife says 15 minutes, putting him to shame in front of millions of brazilians watching the show.
there is also another show similar to american idol. musicians submit a video of their music and the audience and at-home viewers text in to vote, then there is a winner. the songs that come on are unbelieveable. one was about a car a man gave to his wife. this car was called " pao veijo". he talks about how she loves to ride in this car, that she loves the car, that it~s all hers and that he gave it to her to use every day. well, the term "pao veijo" has a double meaning, the other being "old cock" in portuguese. so the guy is singing about how his wife loved the "old cock" that he gives her to use every day. HILARIOUS. the things brazilians get away with...
another observation: when i came to brazil, people would say "oh, the land of samba, soccer and sex." but it really is true! the women here have sex all the time with whomever they want at the moment. sadly, even friends sleep with other friends' boyfriends. not all the time, but it happens frequently. i was talking with a friend about this. she told me a friend of hers slept with her boyfriend. i asked if she was still friends with the girl and she said yes. i didn~t understand how this was possible. i mean, isn~t it a written code among women (and some men) that you don~t sleep with your friend's mate? but she said, in the realm of love and in the heat of passion, there are no rules. she weighed her priorities and decided her friendship was more important than being angry. jeez, with friends like that, who needs friends? i guess, in brazil, friend is a four letter word.
