Taboo

Taboo airs on National Geographic Monday’s at 9pm est. time. New episodes for season seven begin May 2

Taboo is about strange and scary practices and behaviors from people around the world. I’ve been watching this show since season one. It’s interesting to see what is considered Taboo in different cultures. This show is bizarre and fascinating. I still get shocked by the practices of people in other cultures in the name of religion, love and lifestyle. Body modifications, tattoos, drugs, strange foods, etc. The pain they endure is real and scary. All type of “normal” people appear from men who are in love with human size dolls to nudist camps to sex rituals and these are not people from third world countries. These people have jobs, friends and families and now everyone gets to see their dirty little secret. These people either brave or attention seekers. Taboo keeps me squirming and gasping and it never disappoints. Every episode takes me on a journey out of this world. To see what is considered Taboo, watch it.
