What parents need to know
Parents need to know that this docuseries -- which deals with mature content like sexuality, murder, poisoning, and crime -- casts all women in a strongly negative (and unrealistic) light by focusing on the unsavory habits of a select few. In many cases, the subjects attempt to justify their own dirty secrets, including polygamy, prostitution, and sexual offenses against children. Little is off-limits, and discussions routinely reference topics like orgasm, bedroom practices, and murder techniques. Social scenes often include drinking or smoking, and partial nudity is always a possibility -- women are sometimes shown in skimpy attire and various degrees of undress (though sensitive areas like breasts blurred).
