Dating can be brutal as it is - but getting your kit off on national TV while someone analyses every inch of your body is a whole different kettle of fish.
Contestants on Naked Attraction know what they've signed up for - but it still stings when the 'picker' is a bit too blunt while sharing their feedback on a person's figure.
The host of the Channel 4 show, Anna Richardson, was even forced to step in during one episode when a bloke looking for love took his comments a little too far after eyeing up a celebrity in their birthday suit.

A lad called Rigby, from Chesterfield, appeared on the dating programme back in 2019 in the hopes of finding a long-term partner.
And the hot tub installer had no idea that showbiz star Lauren Harries was amongst the line-up of starkers potential lovers.
The Celebrity Big Brother alum seemed to catch the contestant's eye with her moves, but Rigby quickly shot down her advances when her face was revealed.
She emerged from the red pod and began twirling a strand of her hair in between her fingers - but the bloke wasn't impressed and he swiftly eliminated her.
Naked Attraction host Anna asked him: "Ah, Lauren’s star power wasn’t enough to get her through but why?"

And Rigby didn't hold back with his response and let Lauren know exactly what put him off her.
He bluntly replied: "I’m looking for someone to be with permanently, and I just think you might be a little bit too old for me."
Lauren was visibly hurt by his harsh critique, while Anna was left stunned that he'd had the gall to say it.
The 45-year-old awkwardly refused to accept a hug from Rigby and said: "Stay away. No. I'm going, I don't want to be around him.

"Don't say that to a woman about age. Just make something up. That's your mother talking, alright?
"You will be slapping yourself when you know who I am but also, you'll be slapping yourself [because] you're not with me so there you go."
Anna also stepped in to comment on the interaction, adding: "Oh! You never say that to a lady.

"Rigby, you are saying farewell to the mighty Lauren. She’s a 41-year-old TV personality from Cardiff."
Keen to have the last laugh, Lauren then strutted out of the studio after slapping her backside, saying: "You could have had the goods but you’re not having them now. Because you’re never going to get my backside now anyway."
Anna then told Rigby: "You've been properly b*****ked," to which he replied: "I know."
He ended up choosing purple-haired model Hannah to go on a date with - which ended up going disastrously.
