Did Paddy say " Poofter " ?
 

He said to one of the Jedwards " I will throw you and your Poofter brother through the screen "

Did he say that or was i hearing things ?

I didnt hear it :laugh:

I very much doubt it

Probably but you'll never be able to prove it :laugh:

He could've said anything.

:joker:

He probably said something completely different to what you thought he said. Thats usually the case.

Received pronunciation is not really his thing, is it?

I think he said stupid brother but its hard to tell with Paddy. I find him quite a decent chap now,didnt at first.

"I swear on my life I was gonna throw him & his *******ed up brother through the screen."

There'd be no complaints from me ..... :cheer2:

Its hardly difficult to imagine him use words like that.

But to me its more about intent rather than the words. I didnt see it so I don't know the context.

Who cares people call them much worse all over the internet, and he isn't exactly wrong is he.

Yes you are right he did say *******ed up, damn i need subtitles for paddy and Tara.

He definitely said "fooked up brother", i just re-watched it.

I still think he's homophobic though, based on what he said to Sally after she asked what if his son is gay.

Yes I think that's one of the Traveller commandments 'Thou shall not be gay'

Paddy has always been very attached to the Church.
Have you seen the price of lead?

You are right on that it is frowned on massively.
Actually Paddy did himself no favours with his rant, however he did admit in the diary room, that he couldn't explain his thinking at the minute, that he was missing his wife and that just about all the people he is in the house with are simply 'not' his type of people.

Since Jedward are the noisiest and most persistent, they got the main thrust of his frustration but it will go over their heads,they never take offence and just take what's said about them and thrown at them.

Paddy likely rules the roost in part of his community, he naturally will find being in the house massively hard.I don't think he would ever really insult a woman and I think Tara and Pamela are really annoying him now, so instead of them he turned on easier targets.

I am just glad he didn't really explode,could have been rather nasty.

Classic.

Hope he did and hope they didnt block it out.

None of this pc business.

If he did say it - and I really don't think he did - then he would have to be thrown out. I remember Emily who said the 'N' word to Charley. I think everyone agreed there was no malice in it, but she was marched out of the house in her jimjams in the middle of the night. I don't see how calling someone a poofter would be any more acceptable.

Nah Channel 5 arent as PC as Channel 4

You are presuming that they take homophobia as seriously as racism. I don't think they do.

I don't think they take misogyny as seriously eigther.

Unfortuinately gays and women don't kick up as much of a fuss as the racial minorities. Don't you know? they are "special"

He said he could throw 'him and his ********ed up brother through the screen'
Shows how bad it is when we need subtitles to understand what the housemates are saying

I think you're wrong. I think some people take homophobia a lot more seriously than racism. Yourself, for instance. I've just seen you take exception to someone saying something is "gay" on another thread... and yet you made some seriously racist comments to me last week.

Ahhh I missed your edit.

My last comment applies even more.

I made racist comments to you last week? What race are you? I don't even know what race you are so how could i have made a racist comment towards you?

You are obviously mistaking me for someone else.

I think most people will take which ever is closest to the them or which ever one they've actually experienced more seriously which is understandable I suppose

I agree.

Maybe you're right. But I think that when you've taken abuse, usually it makes you a little more empathetic. Not always, but sometimes.

I'd say go back and look at them, but the mods removed them presumably because they were racist.

Paddy Doherty breaks down after Fright Night saying he can't mix with 'country people

I'm sure he'd feel better if he murdered the twins ..... :evilgrin:

:joker:

I completely disagree.

Abuse breads empathy? i think not. Just look at the studies about domestic violence. In almost every case both perpetrators and victims of domestic violence come from households where they witnessed domestic violence themselves as children.

People who suffered abuse as children are more likely to beat their own kids, and commit violence against their own children.

Almost all pedophiles and child molestors were molested themselves as children.

African Americans in the US are by FAR the most homophobic group in the US, in fact in California it's well documented that the only reason gay marriage did not pass into law was because of the black vote.


Hate breeds hate, it does NOT breed tolerance or empathy. scientifically speaking.

Well you claim i said something so "racist" against you, but you can't even remember what it was?

And you don't even tell me what race you are! how am i meant to defend myself against claims of racism if i don't even know which race i'm meant to hate?

You have serious issues, and i don't appreciate being called a racist, that is INCREDIBLY offensive. I've got no more time for you, please stop harassing me.

Paddy,is just Paddy, he comes from different way of life altogether, he has tolerated all the others except Sally, who he found interesting and good to talk to.

His outburst yesterday was out of order in part, he went too far and he I think,realised that by going to the diary room to cool down.

As with other housemates he thinks the twins are in fairyland as he does Tara and Pamela too,he simply cannot accept and adjust to dealing with the people in the house and their different ways.

As to wanting to murder the twins, the worst thing he could possibly be able to do was to nominate them for eviction and he did not, so maybe they don't really annoy him as much as it seems and that yesterday he took his frustrations out more on them because they are much younger than most in there and easier targets for him.

He won't get away with such nasty rants in the future but there is only about 1 week to go now and so I am sure Paddy can be forgiven this outburst this once.
If there was still weeks to go though, I could see Paddy walking out, these people as he says are simply not his people.

You abuse me and can't remember it, and I have issues?

You would imagine so, yeah, but you also get the "well, they've had it easy compared to me" crowd

100% correct again Livia.

is "little woofter" better


either one fits with both

Agree 100% with this.

People get so worked up over a word, when the word itself isnt really the problem.
