‘The Bachelorette’: Is Blake ‘always’ thinking about sex? Fans weirded out by his clay penis for Tayshia Adams

While the rest of them created houses and structures of meaning with the clay, Blake had made a penis

The suitors had to go out of their way to impress Tayshia Adams in the December 2 episode of 'The Bachelorette'. After a round of nude painting, the bachelors were asked to express themselves to Tayshia in the deepest way possible. 

For a moment or two, 'The Bachelorette' felt different as the suitors laid before Tayshia the most vulnerable and emotional aspects about themselves. While some spoke about things that impacted their childhood or relationship with other humans, Bennett only spoke about having multiple homes to take Tayshia to, flaunting his wealth. Meanwhile, when it was time for Blake to open up to Tayshia, he showed a painting of "monogamous" turtle doves and explained how he believes in having a relationship based on a similar nature, which means being committed to each other as partners for the rest of their lives. 

Perhaps, this wouldn't have looked or sounded so odd had he not thought of such an eccentric present for Tayshia. In another task after the painting round, the suitors were asked to make something of a lump of clay with their blindfolds on. While the rest of them created houses and structures of meaning with the clay, Blake had made a penis. Tayshia was taken aback undoubtedly and the fellow suitors on seeing what Blake had made for Tayshia said that he's "always" talking about sex. 

They also talked about him giving Tayshia a clay penis and then talking about monogamy. Blake's actions have garnered a similar reaction from the viewers who are finding the suitor's way of expressing his feeling for Tayshia very "weird". 

One tweeted, "Wow so Blake gives us a penis sculpture AND a beautiful monogamous turtle dove painting in the same date? What else is anyone in this world looking for?! #TheBachelorette" Another added, "Wow so Blake gives us a penis sculpture AND a beautiful monogamous turtle dove painting in the same date? What else is anyone in this world looking for?! #TheBachelorette" One tweeted, "Blake. My little Canadian dove. Wow after the clay penis. So deep. #TheBachelorette" Adding to the previous tweet one said, "Blake is all over the road. Turtledove and a penis? pick a lane!" One wrote, "sooo where did I miss Blake talking about sex 24/7 & it making sense he would construct a penis to represent his time with tayshia.... #TheBachelorette"

'The Bachelorette' airs on Tuesdays at 8 pm ET on ABC.
