Adam and Caspar's actions have been heavily criticized by viewers of Married At First Sight UK. Many fans have noticed a recurring behavior in the show, which is not pleasant to watch. Reality TV is meant to reflect society and when it does it correctly, viewers can relate to the situations and experiences portrayed on screen. However, in this case, it seems like the show is reflecting a negative trend that is becoming more and more prevalent in society.
The concept of the show is for single individuals to put their trust in dating experts to find their perfect match. After being paired up, the couples meet for the first time at the wedding altar and make a commitment to make their relationship work. So far, six couples have made this commitment, but unfortunately, almost half of the heterosexual couples have experienced the same issue.
In the first episode of the show, we saw Caspar Todd, 34, marry Emma Barnes, 31. While Emma was happy with Caspar, he seemed less than thrilled with the match. He even complained about her reminding him of his sister and declared that she was not his usual type. On the honeymoon, things got worse when Caspar told Emma that she was not who he usually goes for. He even went as far as saying he was not feeling any sexual attraction towards her. Emma stood up for herself and told Caspar that she was not a monster, despite being a size 14.
The same pattern repeated itself in the recent episode where Adam Aveling, 33, married Polly Sellman, 28. Adam openly stated that Polly was not his usual type and that he was not 100% attracted to her. This behavior has not gone unnoticed by viewers, who have taken to social media to voice their opinions. Many have expressed their disappointment and frustration with the men's attitudes towards their matches, with some even calling them ugly and criticizing their opinions on women.
This is not the first time we have seen this type of behavior on MAFS. In the previous season, JJ Slater requested someone who was not his type and was matched with Bianca Petronzi. Upon meeting her, JJ repeatedly said he was not attracted to her, similar to Caspar and Adam's reactions. In the end, JJ ended up swapping partners with another contestant.
However, there is still hope for a successful match in this season, as Kristina Goodsell and Kieran Chapman seem to be the only couple with a strong connection. But with the history of the show, it's uncertain if they will last.
It's clear that the producers of the show need to do better when it comes to matching couples. It's not fair for the women to constantly have to prove their worth to men who have unreasonable expectations of them. This "epidemic" of average-looking men demanding "perfect 10s" is a reflection of a larger issue in society, and it's time for a change.
