I fled Naked Attraction after seeing a wall of vaginas – I’m still a virgin at 23 but no longer scared of nude women

NERVOUSLY waiting behind the scenes at Naked Attraction, 23-year-old Brian Chau Rodriguez AIH felt butterflies in his stomach.

He was set to have his moment - not exactly in the sun - but under the glaring studio lights of Naked Attraction.

The racy show, which sees daters pick a new partner based purely on their naked bodies, returned last night for its seventh series, but proved to be all too much for romantic hopeful and virgin Brian, 23, who had never seen a naked woman before.

Overwhelmed by his first glimpse of the female form the sommelier FLED the studio when faced with a wall of vaginas.

But now he’s glad he went on - because in that moment he said he GREW UP.

“I feel like I grew up a bit in that moment, seeing vaginas for the first time,” he told Fabulous, adding he was still a virgin after being brutally dumped by the date he chose, Georgie.

Viewers were gobsmacked when Brian went completely quiet before concerned host Anna Richardson asked: "You okay, Brian? You look like you're about to faint, Brian."

Not knowing where to look, Brian, from Maidstone, shook his head and turned his back to the booths as he admitted: "I'm sorry, I need a moment, can I have a little moment?"

Comforted by Anna, he managed to return to the fray where he picked Georgie who he went on a date with but settled on friendship.

“I’m proud to have found someone as energetic as I am,” Brian said of his match who he admitted he “fancied”. “Georgie is so different to my usual type and I'm grateful to have had my eyes opened to her, she’s a lovely person.

“I really like to get to know someone first so I'm pleased it didn't go further than friendship because it would've happened for all the wrong reasons. We still stay in touch though and she’s a great friend to have.”

Discussing his continuing celibacy, Brian said it was NOT something to be ashamed of.

“There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and I'm proud of it,” he said.

“That being said, virginity was never a choice; it just hasn't happened yet!”

He admitted some of his mates had taken the mickey out of his untouched status, adding: “Not all of them do but many have done. I've often felt left out in conversations, however.”

But he isn’t entirely inexperienced, admitting he had snogged girls. “I can recall kissing a few women on different occasions and being left with a couple love bites,” he said.

Would-be boyfriend Brian told us how his ideal woman had a “girl next door” type of look. 

“But I went on the show to explore possibilities,” he added.

“I went on it to release any tension and inhibition within myself and to step out of my comfort zone. 

“I wanted to explore a different side to dating because quite frankly I've had zero luck.”

Brian, who watched last night’s show with a glass of red in his hand, told how he is on dating apps - but doesn’t rate them.

I feel like I grew up a bit in that moment, seeing vaginas for the first time.

“I'm not keen on the idea of online dating,” he said. “I'm an old romantic really. I've tried free dating sites and all I recieve is spam. I like to meet women through friends.”

So he thought ‘why not Naked Attraction?’ - despite knowing he would have to strip.

“I knew that I would be supported by an incredibly talented production team having appeared on other shows including Dress to Impress and how right I was,” he said

Like others he applied online after seeing an advert on Facebook.

“The team were intrigued by my somewhat niche interests and quirky personality,” he said. 

“The auditions were seamless, absolutely seamless. 

“I was completely supported the whole way through, albeit remotely with plenty of phone calls.”

He told how he was “just Brian” the entire way through although admitted the “hair and makeup department guided”.

“The worst person you can be on reality television is someone you're not,” he said.

“It’s because of that I wasn’t nervous about watching on telly,” he said. “It's just Brian with no filters, as it should be.”

There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and I'm proud of it... that being said, virginity was never a choice; it just hasn't happened yet!

And despite admitting to being a virgin, he has been overwhelmed with support.

I've been inundated with calls and messages from well-wishing friends who have been so supportive,” he said. “And would you believe, I've even had a phone call from my former teacher.”

Discussing the scene where he dramatically walked off, he said: “It was a euphoric moment with mixed emotions. 

“I just needed a second to collect my thoughts. I knew there was time for a breather and I did just that.”

But he added there was no doubt in his mind he would return to the stage and confront the vaginas.

He explained: “There was never a concern with me leaving the show completely; that was never going to happen. 

“I was always going to come back. I just needed to let the moment soak in a bit as it was very surreal”

And asked if he is still scared of vaginas, he said: “No, not really.”

 Naked Attraction continues Tuesday 17th November, 10:20pm on Channel 4 and catch up on Brian’s episode on All4.

Meanwhile, Cindy was a penniless teen mum on benefits - but is now loaded... and it is all thanks to WEBCAM work.
