Love Island fans have slammed a ‘misogynistic’ and ‘silly’ challenge on Tuesday night which saw Islanders act out sex positions.
The ITV reality show is known for its raunchy and disgusting challenges, but its most recent one has rubbed many fans up the wrong way.
Female Islanders were asked to get into seductive positions with a male Islander of their choice – but fans questioned why the emphasis was on the women.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, they wrote: ‘The positions portion of this task feels slightly misogynistic #LoveIsland’;
‘We have waited a week for a challenge and get this rubbish #LoveIsland’; ‘What kind of silly challenge was that?’

‘Wtf was this challenge?? Who sat in the boardroom & approved this sh**e?’;
‘These challenges are so cringe, imagine being on your period and having to contort your body into some weird sex position’;
