María Esclapez, the sexologist who dismantles the toxic relationships of 'The island of temptations'

With a 25%

share and

awaiting its end, the second edition of

has garnered overwhelming numbers.

From the beginning, the comings and goings of the five couples who put their relationships to the test on the

Telecinco

have not stopped capturing the attention of young people.

If the first gala registered an 18.7% share among the public aged 13 to 24, the percentage rose to 42.2% in the third.

For the psychologist

, clinical sexologist and couples therapist, the attraction that this type of content arouses is due, on the one hand, to curiosity.

On the other, the lack of knowledge and resources when it comes to managing conflictive situations as a couple.

"They have never taught us to do it, so it is normal that we feel a kind of attraction or curiosity for these programs," he says.

Jealousy disguised as love, lies clothed in compassion,

and a host of harmful and possessive attitudes interweave many of the behaviors exhibited by the program participants.

Behaviors that, outside of the small screen, also frequently parade through Esclapez's office.

that, night after night, creep into thousands of homes.

"Observation is a fundamental method and technique in the scientific method that helps to collect information," he says.

"I spread what I see and understand because I want to share things that I consider interesting with those people who want to hear what I say or think. I think this program is a great opportunity to

that are reflected, in that to the relations of couple refers ".

Neither the 'I love you' uttered exclusively by attraction are as real as they may sound, nor the 'I am like this' constitute a valid argument.

But, to what extent do certain television spaces contribute to normalize certain behaviors and attitudes?

"Any stimulus contributes to modify our experience and learning, and when I say any stimulus it is absolutely anyone. A conversation, a phrase, a movie, a series, a program or a book. Our brain is changing as far as learning is concerned", ensures.

"If the person has not had a previous affective-sexual education, anything they see through any means will normalize it, but

. It is also a consequence and reflection of society."

In his consultation, Esclapez detects that

, understood as one that carries suffering with it, continues to beat under many relationships.

Therefore, he insists on the importance of learning new mechanisms and the need to unlearn others.

"The behaviors related to romantic love are learned, and this is good news because, if we learn them, we can also unlearn them," he argues.

"Romantic love is, in itself, a patriarchal concept that has been part of our culture and traditions since time immemorial, which does not mean that it has to continue being that way. The new generations can and must evolve towards equality" .
