It's quite telling how there's very few threads (if at all) on Brooke referring to Lewis as a ****ing c * * t during last nights show, yet this place was overrun with people taking the moral high ground on what Lewis said about Sian - pearl clutching and faux outrage everywhere, so where's the outrage when Brooke said it about Lewis? Clearly it's fine for a woman to say it about a man - or rather a housemate they don't like, and to top it off she also said she hoped he would get evicted. Clearly one rule for some and another for others.

And yet later she asked Lewis if he wanted to have a chat which he declined.
Brooke and Lewis continue to have an attract/repel relationship (as did Lewis with Anamelia, Kay and Isabella). Last edited by BBDodge; 22-10-2018 at 09:55 AM. |

Yes Lewis has no tact sometimes, but no one deserves to be called that word.

..it’s the context as well though..(..I have no issue with the word itself over any other derogatory word..)...Lewis has no foundation or reason to name call or be dereogatory...In his head he had judged her to have the box and he had judged her to be nothing more than a dinner lady...Brooke used it referring to actual behaviour displayed...

There's no excuse. I don't like anyone using that word, including Lewis.

That's not what happened. People didn't mind Brooke saying it, not because she's a woman, but because she thought Lewis was acting like a ****ing **** since he melted down over a bad haircut. Lewis said it about Sîan with no reason to, which makes him look more malicious. It's nothing to do with gender. He gave reason to be called that word, Sîan didn't

It's either wrong to use it or not.
For me directly to someone is worse than when having a private chat with another. Which is the case here for both Lewis and Brooke's use of it. Lewis wasn't the only one who thought Sian had killer nommed him. That's as much a just base for suspicion and dislike as Brooke as to Lewis's behaviour. I hate the word but I hear it near every day in my work so am immune to it. Brooke however at times is all over the place. Especially towards Lewis. It's hard to fathom out.

I’ve never understood the huge outrage that word causes tbh, to me it’s just another way of insulting someone.
Brooke was a howl last night

Its irrelevant imo. Its not a nice word used in whatever context and for whatever reason. Double standards on this forum as always. Lewis was slaughtered for using it..not for his reasons. |

Lewis used it against Sian because he thought she had Killer nominated him...no difference. It was an opinion on both parts but as usual its ok for anyone to do it but Lewis.. |

Didn't see it so it can't have been much of a rant but I don't like the word or anyone using it. I think it is very derogatory to women. Have swung from liking to not liking Brooke much, not sure how I feel about her really. At least they showed it the main show rather than editing it out in her favour like they did for Lewis.

Exactly, Rustic. Context is beside the point. They're basically saying is it's fine for her but not for him. Double standards indeed.

I don't recall you being very bothered when Lewis was spouting it off. Aren't you showing double standards right now?

..he wasn’t ‘slaughtered’ by me for using the word..only criticised for the context ...and the same applies to Brooke, the context applied much more ....that’s not double standards, it’s consistancy ...

we have been over the use of the word, it can be a term of endearment in some circumstances, but it can also be the worst possible slight. Brookes use of it, was still pretty unacceptable and doesn't say a lot about her.
I don't think Brooke is a particularly pleasant individual, there have been too many occasions now where she has behaved a bit iffy |

and Zoe stirred the pot well and truly against Sian, it seems to me that it is a word used often, I do believe that Zoe used it as well? Horrible word no matter who says it and so is the F word but they are part of todays society and you can bet your bottom dollar that the so called elite use it as well. No excuses for anyone imo. I mean anyone, not just Lewis! |
