Struggles in gender dynamics, erotic anecdotes and inheritance problems
Day 13: Fires burn bright! Let’s dive into the jungle with the words of Legend Legat: “Think your way into it!” Today’s cinematic adventure is full of life, sex, bodies of all sizes, older women, young guys and terrible, terrible feminism!
While Kader and Danni bask in their shared happiness over packaged chips, which they share to the delight of the campers after their teamwork triumph, they are just a footnote to this momentous day. This day is about everything! Life, sexual experiences, gigantic proportions, wise women and the intense, intense feminist struggle!
The complicated narratives of jungle legends confuse the way these revelations should be interpreted. Mola proudly declares his wife the “queen” of their castle, but he refrains from loudly asserting his dominance, instead taking the view that he is merely doing what she tells him to do.
His mantra in the gender debate: “Back to the basics,” he muses, albeit gently. There may be roofers, but how many? And who wants a “male midwife”? Many agree that this stormy feminism has crossed boundaries, warned men against making mistakes and forced them to be extremely cautious.
Legat, the loquacious one, is said to have written an essay on the subject, according to sources. Regardless, it is acceptable for men to make IKEA furniture masks, but when men wear tights that are tighter than women’s, fiascos like Gigi’s often occur.
“Learning from old horses”
Has feminism overstepped its bounds? Eric remains cautious in his comments, moving cautiously to avoid escalation. So let’s listen to Mola again. He tells of the exploits of his father, who was born to four women and had eight children. His tactics were determined and he almost “walked around like a dog”.
Day 13 brings the gender conflict to the fore. Mothers recall neglectful fathers and the painful emptiness in their children’s lives. Sex is a hotly debated topic. The eloquent Gigi, respectfully known as the one with the only ablution, talks about his first romantic encounters with women – especially the older kind.
Fascinated by the thrill of role-playing, the sensual liaison once announced his intentions to a 56-year-old woman seeking amorous relief in Marseille at the tender age of nineteen. Although she was intended to be his uncle’s companion, Gigi’s affection for her was too strong and his uncle instructed him to follow her heart. Trapped in her trance-like state, minimal movements were permitted, with the lady admonishing her novice: “Hold still.”
Mola’s observation on the discussion goes beyond the topic: “Learning from old horses.” Thorsten, too, was captivated by similar encounters with a much older woman when he was 15 or 16 years old. The thought of the legal consequences remains in the background.
“The intimate realm”
Women who would “beat you up” during sex lurk in these hidden corners, and in hindsight, it’s almost comforting when the sex talk dies down and conversations turn back to Sarah’s “stunning” feet. Combining aesthetics and foot fetishism, any foot fetishist’s fantasies will be stimulated by the sight of her, but Gigi still claims she’s “too heavy” and finds it difficult to remember her once radiant appearance, and can only mutter in her presence, “Shrink, darling!”
Sarah doesn’t let herself get upset and twists the unfortunate words into another expression of love, which leads to a physical return after these “mental sessions”.
Finally, all men have been selected for the jungle test!
“The great battle of the sexes!”
On one side are Mola and Eric, who are yearning for a chance to prove themselves, and on the other side are Thorsten and Gigi. Their task: They must dive into a water-filled tank inhabited by poisonous pythons to extract stars. Before the fight, Legat claimed that the “Great Battle of the Sexes” would be more of a challenge for the second duo due to Mola’s colossal stature. But Legat and Gigi soon discover that these so-called “silent ninjas” have no weaknesses.
With remarkable agility, they quickly pluck the stars anchored to the bottom of the pool, and their winning streak reaches an impressive 9 stars in less than ten minutes. The winners must choose a loser to be eliminated, and unanimously vote for Thorsten. Although Eric openly rejoices at Legat’s supposed humiliation, noting that he “crossed boundaries,” Legat fights back tears at his sudden elimination, which is heartbreaking.
Deep sadness flows from a man who has apparently built his life around this reality format. “I could cry, but anger is not a wise advisor,” Legat murmurs, and his eyes fill with tears. His despair is palpable and makes you believe that he has been through a lot in the world of reality TV. Although Sonja and Jan say goodbye with the comment “an era is coming to an end,” that may not be worth much. After all, we have learned: a relentless warrior like Thorsten Legat does not back down. For a man like him, new formats are inevitable. If necessary, he will create them himself.
In the middle of the jungle camp, the group decides to take part in a team-building activity and select the strongest members for a challenging task. Despite Legat’s predictions, the “silent ninjas” perform exceptionally well and prove their agility and strength.
After the activity, the campers gather around the fire and talk about the events of the day. Between the stories, Danni tells of a special experience she had in the jungle camp and wants to share her feelings about the unique life in the jungle camp with others.
