MOSCOW: The call went out to the studio audience: Would anyone be willing to venture on stage for a televised lashing from a woman wielding a large whip? reports AP.

All in a late night's work for Russia's first and only TV talk show about sex. ,
The incident, one of the wilder moments In the three-month history of "About That," helps explain' why the programme has drawn Jeers from parliament, picketers and the press. But it also Symbolises Russians' surprising willingness to participate in — or at least watch — the popular new show.
Broadcast to much of the nation by the independent NTV network. "About That" has turned into a risque weekly confessional that millions of people tune in late on Saturday nights.
The show's creator. Leonid Parfyonov, had, a hunch that viewers might be receptive to the idea of a sex-related programme after decades when the topic was strictly taboo.
But even he is shocked by the ease with which people in this once-squeamish country will talk — and talk, and talk — about sexual fantasies, losing their virginity or, as in the recent show, the pains and pleasures of sadomasochism.
