How real Is That 'Sex/Life' Shower Scene?

In a Collider interview, series creator Stacy Rukeyser confirmed that it was Demos in the shower rather than a body double, but would not confirm if what we saw was all him. She said: "People usually ask is it real or is it a prosthetic ? And I can tell you what Adam Demos says about it which is, a gentleman never tells. So, we are leaving that up to the viewer's imagination."

Though Rukeyser would not be drawn to confirm whether the penis is prosthetic, a member of the prosthetics team confirmed to Newsweek that the scene does indeed feature a prosthesis. In fact, there are prosthetic sex parts elsewhere in the show, and the prosthetics team has experience making fake penises—including ones even larger than that in Sex/Life .

In a scene in which the character of Billie had to breastfeed, actor Sarah Shahi confirmed to Entertainment Weekly that she was wearing prosthetic breasts. She told the magazine: "Something like Billie's boobs, in the past every time you see my character with Brad, that's me. Then because I do play a breastfeeding mother, I can't have the same boobs in the present. So yeah, I had to sit through three hours of prosthetic boob application to get those suckers on."

While Rukeyser was reluctant to confirm whether the penis was fake, a member of the prosthetics team confirmed to Newsweek that the scene was indeed fake.

Per IMDB, the series' special prosthetic effects were provided by François Dagenais and Tenille Shockey. The former, who is better known for producing some amazingly graphic gore effects for shows like Hannibal , told Newsweek the assignment was "a bit different than what we usually do but hey! We were also involved with changing Sarah's breasts through the flashbacks."

    No, I still don't understand how even a prospective PhD student in psychology can't escape from pua. It can't be because the eldest brother is a record company president, has a career, and "talent", so he is not a pua... This eldest brother who was hurt by his father is a standard pua template... Absolutely. In addition, I always feel that the heroine in my eyes will either pull out ak47 in the next second, everyone's Xiao, or she looks like a big power inexplicably... Watching this is because I clicked a post by mistake... I read it at 1.5x speed
