7 Lives Exposed

7 Lives Exposed is an American reality television-themed series produced by Playboy TV. The series was first aired in late 2001, with a second season following in late 2002. The series starred pornographic actress Devinn Lane and was produced by Tom Lazarus. The concept of the series is similar to that of Survivor and Big Brother -- contestants must satisfy certain ongoing criteria or risk being "evicted"; in this case, Lane herself decides who among a set of couples living together in a Los Angeles-area home stays or goes each episode. As the primary audience of the series is heterosexual men, there are both heterosexual and lesbian sex scenes throughout the series. The sex is simulated; however, scenes of oral sex and masturbation are much more explicit in that some contact is shown. Dramatic tension arises from conflicts between the contestants, often related to jealousy and competition. The last season aired in 2006, which was Season 5.

Moral Development

Examines two opposing theories of moral development, that of Lawrence Kohlberg who believes that there are stages of moral development tied to cognitive development, and that of the learning theorists who contend that moral behaviour like all behaviour is learned, and that reasons for actions are irrelevant. Using Dr Stanley Milgrim’s famous obedience experiment each of the six stages of moral reasoning is represented in this film, one at a time, by six different participants. The stages differ in the types of reasons a person gives for making a decision about a moral dilemma and in the type of concern the person shows for the self, society, and authority.
