Channel 4 has promised viewers that future episodes of new dating show Naked Attraction will “feature more nude women” following a sexism row sparked when the first episode showed “too many penises”.

Media watchdog Ofcom was sent 64 complaints during the series opener at 10pm last night.

The show sees six contestants bare all while standing in acrylic boxes, with their faces covered, as a fully-clothed hopeful picks a love interest based solely on their naked body.

Later in the programme, which was watched by 1.3m intrigued people, faces are revealed and the dater strips off too.

Outraged viewers slammed the programme, hosted by Anna Richardson, questioned why more male than female genitalia was shown.

According to the Sun, in 48 minutes, not including commercials, the show flashed a total of 282 shots of penises and 96 vaginas.

A spokeswoman for Channel 4 has today assured the Standard that future episodes of the show would feature “a more even split”.

She added that the reason behind the lack of female private parts was due to the fact that the first episode’s contestants were two women - one straight and one bisexual.

During the show there were 175 shots of penises as the first dater, music producer Ania, started her search before her privates were shown 11 times in quick succession.

Later, bisexual masseuse Mal, had three men and three women to choose from. Her search triggered 100 shots of men’s intimate parts of 82 of women’s.
