Alexander Skarsgard tells Rolling Stone that he’s not a big believer in the cock sock other actors wear when filming nude scenes. He prefers thwacking people in the head with his dong. Skarsgard says, “I don’t want a sock around it, that feels ridiculous. If we’re naked in the scene, then I’m naked. I’ve always been that way.”
Anna Paquin, on the other hand, wears a patch, “a thong-like attire with the sides cut off – while filming nude scenes as her character Sookie Stackhouse.”
Stephen Moyer also wears a sock. He says it’s out of consideration for others. “I’ve got nothing to hide,” he says. “I just think it might be embarrassing for the crew.”
That’s the exact explanation I give to people when I wear pants at an orgy. That and I don’t want girls pointing and laughing at me again.
