“Saxon always talks about things about sex and so for my brother,” he told the outlet.
'He only sets up these little Easter eggs of what is strange and outside about this family, which is fun. The end of the first episode, that scene was one of my favorite scenes. I just thought it was so uncomfortable and brilliant at the same time. '
In the scene, Saxon wonders how he will masturbate with his younger brother in the room.
He goes to bathroom, pulls out his robe and the audience gets to see his bare derriere before he closes the door.
“Yes, that's my real ass.” He told Esquire. 'Not stand-in. Once I read the script, I knew what would come, but I didn't do that for that. '
White Lotus has never been removed from nudity and controversy.
In season one, Steve Zahn's character displays with his swollen testicles. “I didn't even have to do that part,” Zahn told The Hollywood Reporter at the time.
“It is someone else who is wearing a prosthesis,” he revealed. “That is about as absurd as it becomes, right?”

Patrick's father, who had his own famous nude scene in Terminator, commented on his son's debut.
'I was pumped so much to take a break from filming to celebrate @patrickschwarzenegger at the White Lotus season 3 premiere. What a show, “he wrote on Instagram.
“I could claim that he is surprised to find out that he has a nude scene, but what can I say – the apple is not far from the tree. Don't miss it this Sunday – believe me. '
Fans reacted incredibly to Patrick's nude scene because it looked like a gay incestuous storyline with his brother Lochlan.
In the nude scene, Saxon asks his younger brother what kind of porn he likes, but Lochlan just laughs at it while Saxon wonders how he will “subtract” with him all week.
'I just go to the bathroom, “says Saxon, while he walks completely naked to the bathroom while Lochlan looks at him … by showing that Lochlan can be both gay and have incestuous feelings for his brother.
Fans were shocked by this potential storyline, where many went to social media to express their frustration.

“What's going on in the incest …” said X user @w1mersarmietno, who was certainly not the only one who got incestuous vibes from the premiere.
@Umbilicalkordei shared a poison of a desperate Shakira and added: “The Incestplot line on the White Lotus …”
Caden (@Caden3123) added: “Not the White Lotus season 3 with an incest story line.”
Starry Mag added that “Saxon should lower his level of crawl factor,” with a poison from a woman who says, “He is creepy.”
Another X user – @roel_aran – added: “No, they wouldn't go where I think with his character, right?”
A fan called @lisaiaoshi said: 'Saxon is really weird and makes you uncomfortable to view it. That is great acting by Patrick. '
Another user – @SameOlegal – cried the entire Ratliff family, which says in all caps, “are these whites okay ????”
