Ben and the nappy story

[lauraC]

Since there are a lot of ben fans here and it's sort of a private forum, not many people view it I'd like people's opinions about the nappy story.
During a game in big brother there was a game that involved people telling embarrassing stories, corin once was caught shop lifting as a kid the usual thing anyway when it came to ben he said that "a friend" in his school used to buy nappies as 12 year old and wear them because he liked the feel of them, all of the group laughed and said this story was really a story about ben wasn't it, ben never denied it just laughed along.
I didn't know what to make of this story, was it really a story about ben at 12 or was it Ben as an adult admitting his kink, and we all know he loves the older lady, I felt very sorry for ben that night that somehow he had been deprived as a child being sent away to boarding school and it had messed him up somehow
What were other people's thoughts on this?

[Vicky.]

Each to their own...some pretty strange fetishes out there :p

[Niamh.]

lmao, I don't remember that!! wearing nappies at 12 is a bit strange and not something I'd admit on TV that's for sure! Maybe he genuinely was talking about a friend

but they all laughed and said it was really him and he laughed too and never denied it, it's odd to tell a story about a "friend" instead of admitting an embarrassing story about yourself

so very true. Some would say that walking around the BB house thrusting your enlarged bollock in people's faces was a pretty strange thing to do too! :joker::joker: In fact, not only is that a strange thing, it's a pretty perverse thing to do, and be televised doing it!

I reckon he was probably taking the piss though, you'd never admit to that on national TV:joker:

Many men prefer a woman that is older than them. It's hardly newsflash material. Think Demi More, Madonna. I'd say Ben was actually very much 'in vogue'. :dance:

At least he likes all women, old or young, and what's more they like him! Furthermore he doesn't have to strip off at every opportunity displaying deformed testicles in order to get any attention:laugh2:

You might be wanting to apologise to your Mother, you're going around swearing on her life! LOL

I think you will find that the women in Ben's life, tend to be well heeled, no scraping the barrell for Ben. ;)

given that you appear to be of some fanciful notion that Ben's fondness for older women means that these women are not attractive - I'd like you to prove this, given it is you that is making this spurious allegation to the contrary. ;)

As I said, you're the one going around claiming Ben said something that was meant to be about him personally. My point was that unless you were Ben, you would not be in a position to make the judgement call that he was referring to himself or indeed, a friend.

Like I say, you don't know the truth. Good at telling stories mind you, but not so good at quoting things you claim as being the truth when you can't in fact, back it up. ;)

what age is Ben and how much older does he go for in women?

Lovely that you would be happy to admit that you're happily swearing on your mother's life.......but then admit it's a very false scenario.

I'll take it as red that your story telling has as much credence to it.

Some people don't have it in them to embrace further education, besides which, I didn't sign up for Extra Curricular Teaching Classes.

I'll wait for Laurac giving all the info on this subject:- ... after all, she's very clued up on this it would seem.

nothing wrong with that anyway even if it is true btw tbh it's refreshing from the usual men going for girls young enough to be their grand daughters!

sorry I din't understand your post could you retype it in a different way please?
ah ok you are talking about an old man perving on a young girl, no I don't get that either
But then I think it's about the man refusing to grow old and find older wrinkly woman attractive, which makes slightly more sense than a youngish man finding an old wrinkly woman attractive

[Pyramid*]

No. It's perfectly understandable as it is.

30 I believe.

ok, though I have to say liking someone older isn't a worry at all imo, it's the people who like very young people I'd be concerned about, anything between consenting adults is all good as far as I'm concerned

Make your mind up ! One minute you say 'But that's normal', the next, when you are challanged on it, you say, "Old man perving on a young girl, no I don't get that either'.

As for the rest of your post... do you realise how absurd it sounds!!! LOL

I agree. I don't see the big deal. If a man who is 30, wants to enjoy someone older's company - I don't see what the issue is.

Same as if a woman in her 30's likes the company of an older man, what's the problem.

I'd far rather see that either way: than seeing a 30 year old man, dating a 16 year old.

[lauraC]

and what age women does he like? how much older I mean? or is that just a rumour?

well Joan Collins is 77, Shirley bassy 73 Joan Crawford is dead and the woman from the women's institute he dated when a male escort looked like they were between 50-60 years old

Well, I know some people do have that fetish, you would wonder alright where it developed as it is a strange one but I doubt it is really true cos he'd never readily admit that on TV imo anyway:joker:

he escorted high society women to select events if that's what Laurac's trying to dig at. hardly the sleaze factor that she's trying desperately to make it.

Nothing wrong with Ben fancying older women. Although he seems to like just as many around his own age group also, Bianca G for instance.

I'll tell you what, as I am so nice and helpful :) Next time Ben is on the radio, I will PM you to let you know :) Then you can ask him about the stuff that fascinates you about him, and give him your views on you reckoning he has had an unhappy childhood and has issues stemming from it, and we can listen to his response then :) Hows that? :)

I would never embarrass him like that, some stuff in big brother slips out without them wanting it to.

[pices]

I would not take too much notice of lauras story tbh, she and many others never did get Bens sense of humour, as for the escort thing, I do believe he escorted ladies to posh events, and the older woman thing,.....well if you listen carefully he loves the glamour and style of the older Diva's, Joan Collins, Crawdord, Bette Davis, etc etc, so do I.I love em all, cant get enough of em, but like Ben I mean it in the ''fan of'' sense.
I do believe he dates beautiful youngish women, though he has been seen on the arm of some 40 somethings, the thing is with Ben that he leads such a busy society life and is always seen with beautiful women....its hard to say is he dating or socialising.he is after all in great demand on the society scene.

Actually if I recall correctly, Dave and Ben were non too happy with that game, Ben does not like sharing intimate details of his private life, he said it often enough, so I am sorry to say that even if Ben did tell that story about a friend it was I would say either just a story or it was about a friend, thats why Ben was so shocked with Mario saying that he outed a boyfriend who was married with children, ben would never give away details of his intimate relationships.

I really dont care when it was tbh, my point stands, Ben hated talk of intimate details, he would not give anything away about himself.
I must say Laura, you and Moleymo bear an uncanny likeness in your postings, you also both seems very keyed up in things that happened which were never actually seen, almost like you were there.

also, I've not seen you answer any questions as to what age exactly are the women that Ben supposedly has a 'liking for', - in the very sleazy way you tried to portray.

You know, the ones that you referred to earlier as examples (ie: like Joan Crawford, a woman who died in 1977),Joan Collins, Shirley Bassey. :joker:

I haven't heard you reply to those who asked what was wrong with a man in their 30's dating older women? What exactly is wrong with that. Oh, that's right. Nothing.

Unlike Mario, who thinks it's smart not only to out a gay man - but to out a gay married man - I dread to think of the desperate hurt Mario caused to both that man, and his wife. Not only that... he thinks it's fine to brag about that. And you have the cheek to try to berate Ben because he enjoys the company of woman a bit older than him! It's really laughable, it honestly is.

funny you mention this. I recall several posters saying the very same thing and thinking that Laurac was Mario, and using his female friend's name as a pseudonym when Laurac first joined.

Odd that somehow, such 'stories' are being told by Laurac, that no one else can actually recall hearing on Big Brother, almost as though it was unseen by the public and only those who were there would know about ;)

Strange that suddenly Laurac, you are taking the same tactic that Mario himself did on twitter when he began slagging off Andrew's mum: he did the 'Oh wouldn't want to say anything to embarrass him or his mum", when Mario realised he'd gone too far.

I honestly think you started this thread with a very made up story with no other intention but to have a pop at Ben's supporters.

Unfortunately, all you have managed to do is show that anyone can type up whatever they want, but unless they can actually back up their claims, it's all just nothing more than utter rubbish.

I think we have long established that there is nothing wrong with a man who is 30 years of age being able to date whomever he likes, regardless of what age they are. It's perfectly normal.

we've established you find the nappy thing strange, what we have not established is any proof in your story that you suggested that this 'story' was in fact about Ben himself.

now ... proof please. Proof that Ben said that, and that Ben did indeed, mean him personally.

Okay, so now we have established that your original spin of this being a friend of 12 years of age, was in fact rubbish. The age of person concerned, was actually an 8 year old child. I'll repeat that in case you didn't understand it the first time around. AN 8 YEAR OLD CHILD!

Secondly: you have established that it was Ben's friend. Not Ben.

So I was right. Your story was indeed a load of rubbish - full of holes and inaccuracies.

Nothing to see here.... move along now.

My memory was 12 but even 8 years old is sad and spells an unhappy childhood.
ben said it was his "friend" but when everyone laughed and did the air quotes of "friend" he laughed as though to admit it was himself

bens friend put nappies on at 8

Honestly, which part of that do you not understand?

:joker::joker::joker::joker:

what age is Ben and how much older does he go for in women?

Well his idol is Shirley Bassey and she's 73! There's hope for us all:joker:

Funny how no-one bats an eyelid when old men go out with much younger women!

Okay, we've established that your memory aint too good.

We've established that you personally read whatever you like into the word 'friend' - even though it is clearly mentioned, 'friend'

We've established that Ben laughed 'as though' .... which is supposition only.

We've established that the person being spoken about was an 8 year old child.

We've established that you've in fact shown us nothing that Ben should be so very ashamed of.

This is the perfect example of you showing that there really is only so much spin you can place on a story - and then showing that its all just a load of bunkum, utter nonsense, and brought about only from a bad memory and a very fertile imagination. :joker:

well there are three scenarios in this game of big brother where people have to tell embarrassing personal stories
a) Ben told a story about a friend of his that would go to the shop and buy nappies and wear them because it felt good and laugh when people said it was him (aww so sad)
b) the kid was actually ben and he is admitting to something about his own past (aww so sad)
c) this is a story about ben's kink and a hint what he's into sexually ( ewww!)

I can see the very first headline right now:

Ben Duncan's Friend put nappies on at 8.

:joker:
With accompanying pictures - of said friend, changing baby's nappy as the clock struck 8pm. :joker:

[Kazanne]

Since there are a lot of ben fans here and it's sort of a private forum, not many people view it I'd like people's opinions about the nappy story.
During a game in big brother there was a game that involved people telling embarrassing stories, corin once was caught shop lifting as a kid the usual thing anyway when it came to ben he said that "a friend" in his school used to buy nappies as 12 year old and wear them because he liked the feel of them, all of the group laughed and said this story was really a story about ben wasn't it, ben never denied it just laughed along.
I didn't know what to make of this story, was it really a story about ben at 12 or was it Ben as an adult admitting his kink, and we all know he loves the older lady, I felt very sorry for ben that night that somehow he had been deprived as a child being sent away to boarding school and it had messed him up somehow
What were other people's thoughts on this?

Nice try,LOL,I watched as an avid Ben fan and never got the vibe of this!!LOL,maybe it's wishful thinking on your part:joker:

My own particular favourite was the fact that Joan Crawford got a mention......... Ben's kinky apparently because he liked the Diva styles of such greats as Joan Crawford, Joan Collins (a British icon if ever there was one !) and because he likes Shirley Bassey. :joker:

What's all these 'most probablys'your mind is in overdrive,you know NOTHING about Ben nor can you read his mind,and why is it your concern as to who he 'would' in your words?

You really do have a very vivid imagination, I agree though that this thread is funny, having read further on in that WHATM link you posted ( oh what memories ) there were a lot of soundcuts but we hear mario mention sex for sixty quid including VAT, now what should we surmise from that little tasty treat.
Anyhow isnt it Mario who likes to shag the old generation, providing they have plenty of money to buy him presents of course.

[Kazanne]

Well obviously not so obvious as YOU are the only one that has come to that conclusion,funny none of this was mentioned during the main show and I'm sure it would have been as there were ,believe it or not some VERY anti Ben posts and this would have been swooped on big time,So as I said,nice try but mega fail.

Seeing as the age limit on here is 13, and realising that most teens these days do know what sex is (indeed, plenty of them are actually practisising at that age), I didn't see you having any issue making mention of threesomes, wanking and sex (your words!!) earlier on. You weren't too bothered about being sensitive to the 'underage' people on here earlier were you.

But it seems you do have a wee habit of changing your mind. funny, that was a Mario trait too......went for the jugular then backed off acting all 'caring'.

mmmm....... ;)

Then why did you start a thread about it in the first place if you think that ? :conf: :joker: It can only be considered hardcore depending on which way ones mind is going. And I know mine is being led a certain way by your posts 'only'.

[Pyramid*]

Isn't the nappy thing hardcore though?

I'd like you to address the fact that you were happy making mention of threesomes, wanking and sex earlier, but now (that it's actually much late), you suddenly have taken this slant of being 'sensitive'. ;)

I'd say there was nothing hardcore about an 8 year old having any involvment with nappies - bearing in mind here, that your proof showed clearly, it was an 8 year old child that was being discussed.

If anything, I'd say it was pretty warped that anyone would even consider relating the word 'hardcore' to any 8 year old child, which is precisely what you are doing.

[pices]

It was obviously a story about himself, whether it was a story about himself as a child or an adult is the mystery

There is no obviously about it though, It is in your mind only, no proof at all only your imagination, which tends to err on the warped side anyway, perhaps thats what is missing for me not liking Mario, I am OBVIOUSLY far to normal and unwarped.

[Truth Teller]

I think your words above don't apply to Ben fans. We don't need to fabricate stories.

Let's look at the way Laurac was so adamant it was all true, (even swearing on her mother's life in a sad attempt to make people believe her lies). :shocked: Luckily, swearing on someone's life comes from the primary school days and has no real impact, just as well for her Mum eh! ;)

In fairness, the thread spun right round on her, and bit her hard on her arse! :joker: It's also given a very good insight asto how her mind works !! :shocked:

Personally, I've found much of the thread funny incredibly funny, and the only proof Laura provided, was that she has an overactive imagination and that we should not believe a word she says the next time she puts up her 'truthful' stories when trying to mock a housemate she doesn't like.

As I said, let's be fair, this has turned into one of the funniest threads I've seen on Tibbs so far, unintentionally of course, but it has been fun. :spin::spin::spin:

[lauraC]

No she didn't, she called Laura a troll. She was right.

Mind you, mario's the same- so it doesn't really matter. Both of them are trolls.

she also called him rubbish and then told him she loved him and will he follow her, she was acting like a ben fan :hugesmile:

Ben fans don't follow Ben around - another little figment of your imagination there I'm afraid.:hugesmile:

Anyhow, you're boring the hell out of me now. :xyxwave:

Ben: duplicitous, passive aggressive, bitchy (verging on nasty), self seeking, weak, homophobic, etc.

Mario: Jealous, obsessive, self regarding, sex orientated, naturist (in yer face sort), predatory, etc.

Clearly, both have had many negative points made about them. There's not going to be much changing of opinion towards either of them. However, for the sake of balance, I challenge you to say positive things about either of them, not just "seemingly" positive but genuine positve statements about Ben or Mario, especially of the person you have been criticising.

Blimey....I am stumped, there is nothing I like about Mario, I guess the one thing I can come up with is that Mario was/is not physically aggressive, though he was physically menacing in a stalkerish sort of way, ala his treatment of Ben and Andrew.

I'd love to be able to say something positive about Mario. Wait, I can. He's out of Ben's life, that's very positive. But I don't think that's quite what you meant. Other than that, I am sorry, but there is not one thing I could find about Mario that I could honestly and truthfully say was positive. I cannot abide the man.


Other than than, nope. There is not one thing I can say positive about Mario as a person. Nothing.

That's easy for me, I don't mind Ben, I wouldn't like him as a friend, but think he's interesting and he makes me laugh , his mannerisms and that wobble he does when he's self concious etc.
I hope he's learnt from big brother i hope he's changed and no longer feels the need to put other people down in order to feel good about himself.
If he was less bitchy, less judgemental I'd like him

Hi Tibbs mods/admin,

Sorry for addressing this here. But I wanted a few admin/mods to read it rather than one by alerting. When I joined here I was over the moon how different to another site this was, and love/d posting here :) But am noticing a lsight change of late, unless I am just being paranoid about some stuff? :conf: But I will get to the point of the following and then leave it at that.

I noticed the latest thread on Mario has been closed with an aside to move on as BB is over. Well this site is called 'This is Big Brother', and people who enjoyed the show still wish to debate aspects of it, as they would. So can I ask although as much as I wouldn't like this thread to be closed even considering there may be some close to, touching, libellous posts in it that for all I know may well have been brought to an ex BB housemates attention by now? as to why the other one was locked then, and this one not given the reasons outlined?

Thank you in advance for taking time out to read this and respond.

Odd you mention about the other thread being closed because 'The show is over'. If a thread is closed because the show is finished, that should effectively mean that the entire BB section be closed then for no one to be able to post on it.

What I personally didn't quite get, was that particular thread was about something very current, and real - for everyone to see yet because people were simply disagreeing - it got shut down. Yet this one that has been shown to be be as far from the truth as you can get, remains open.

It doesn't make sense at all.

Ben does not worry himself with the forums, twitter or such like, he would care even less for the ramblings of an embittered ex housemate who he would not give in to his sexual innuendo and harrasment, There is no truth in your post Laura, except for a mention in the WHATM thread that Ben supposedly said it of an 8 year old schoolfriend, everything else is your Imagination running riot, scandalasly so, Good job really that Ben is unlikely to give a toss, though I dare say that it could be proved if required exactly who thses posts are really coming from.

What's the truth? You have taken something Ben might have said in BB and gone on to state it is about himself he was speaking and that he has issues. As for posting on DS, I never realised you were a member there? What name do you post under there then if you don't mind me asking? And I have to wonder just why you didn't post it there, there must be a reason mustn't there? Maybe you realise DS being a bigger forum that you are more open to being challenged on this in a thread or that potentially libellous posts would be more easily recognised ?

Sorry, I very rarely venture into this section anymore unless alerted to certain posts :p

The reason the other thread was closed was because basically, there were loads of reports coming from it every day from various members, and half of the posts in it were very off topic, people starting insulting each other and the likes.

Bad wording I agree, from the mod who closed it, but ^^ was the real reason :)

[babycakes]

I felt very sorry for ben that night that somehow he had been deprived as a child being sent away to boarding school and it had messed him up somehow
What were other people's thoughts on this?

You asked for my thoughts - well here goes.

As the Mother of a very balanced young man who, to paraphrase your words "sent him away to boarding school" I actually take great offence to that. It is a common and pretty ignorant misconception amongst those who are not privvy to that experience.

My son, now 23, LOVED boarding school and to this day, his best friends are those that he made there; the bond they have with each other is lovely to see. The decision was made mutually and has provided him with huge benefits. He had much longer holidays than his counterparts outside of the independent school system, as well as regular exeats every three weeks as well as home overnights. The price I paid in not having the everyday presence of my child has proved to be worthwhile. He is intelligent, well mannered & respectful, recieved a superb education and had the time of his life. He laughed himself silly for 5 years with friends that are still his best buddies to this day, and in no way screwed up. And by the way, no one ever wore nappies or for that matter, touched him inappropriately.

It may however engender a liking for older women. One of his friends had a girlfriend twice his age when he was about 17. His mates thought him very lucky to have got a bit of MILF experience under his belt. But seeing as the others just had very normal experiences, I wouldn't suggest that "being sent away" (it's not exile or borstal you know :hugesmile:) created a sexual preference for older women on mass. And the boy I refer to way in fact a friend. Not the operson relaying the information. Some people have friends you know, and tell amusing anecdotes about them. Exactly the way that I trust Ben told his amusing anecdote (that oddly, no-one else remembers hearing, but I'll give the benefit of the doubt on this point.)

I speak here from experience, not idle speculation.

You asked for our thoughts: these are mine.

Vicky, something isn't quite right. The thread that was closed, was only started yesterday, and was closed down within 7 hours - so Im unclear how it can be said that there were 'loads of reports coming from it every day'.... it wasn't even up for a day.

if half the posts on the thread were off topic, why are those who were guilty of taking it off topic, despite being asked by several members, to keep on topic, why are they not taken to task, rather than the thread being closed. It seems a very easy way of someone deliberately going OT, especially if they don't like the subject matter, they know that going OT will get the thread closed - and with their own posts being deleted so it looks like they have done nothing wrong -along with several of my own posts requesting that they stop going off topic being deleted.

Why punish the whole thread instead of those guilty of deliberately going OT, and who do so, knowing the thread will get closed. That's a wee bit unfair ?

Iceman, no offence, but you closed the thread saying that the show was over - when there still exists a BB forum. I understand Vicky saying it was bad choice of wording. However,Now I personally asked for a mod to intervene as it was continually being taken off topic and asked 'if it was possible that a word could be had' as I didn't want it to go the same way as every other thread that is deliberately taken off topic, which naturally, if a person continues doing so and are allowed to continue doing so, to the point that threads are closed, it does seem unfair.

I still don't understand why the thread has to suffer when threads being taken off topic deliberately, with intent on getting them closed, seems to be quite a recurring theme. That's my point. Clearly it's up to the mods to decide. But it does seem unfair. I'm only putting my own point over and not expecting a reply from you - the mods decide and that's it.

Back on topic

Now on the subject of boarding school..... I myself spent the last few years of my teenage years at boarding school in Hastings. It hardly traumatised me, indeed it did nothing but aid me in learning how to be independant and learn how to stand on my own two feet, without being mollycoddled along the way. So if some have this rather strange idea of boarding school being some sort of 'draconian punishment', I can assure you, I personally spent some of my best school days down in Catsfield Place.

[babycakes]

thanks for your input, how old was your son when he was at boarding school?

12-18 but he also did some temp boarding at his previous school where he was a day boy from the age of 8 onwards.

I get rather cross at the insinuation that boarding schools produce unbalanced and perverse personalities - I've met hundreds of these kids over the years, and seen them turn into teenagers and adults, and bar one or two who have gone off the rails with the usual transgressions that affect all of society - they are no different.

BTW, "Thanks for your input" seems a little terse, considering that you implied that children that attend boarding schools are unwanted and inconvenient little people sent into some Kafkaesque exile.

Just noticed your edit.

Are you know suggesting that only kids educated in the private system have flings with someone older ? I don't think that is true at all. Knowing a lot of other kids of that age, it is not uncommon. Happens to boys and girls from the state system too, or is that too unpalatable to believe ?

Have to agree, it matters not where a person is educated. If they prefer older men / or older women - that's their own preference. It's hardly stuff that news flashes are made from is it!

Personally although I really don't want to get into parental choices and be over critical, there are always personal circumstances where it's maybe the better choice to send your child away to board at school but I certainly don't think it's mollycoddling to want to have your young children at home with you and give them all the emotional love and support they need when they are children, it might force a child to become an adult much earlier than is necessary but I don't think that's a particularly good thing

It's much healthier to prefer older people than these pervs who like 'young ones'it's no ones business as long as someone is of age and consenting!!

As I said before - speaking from experience - kids attending boarding school get all the love and support that other kids get and they don't grow up too soon, they just learn some essential life skills too. I speak of the hundreds that I have met over the years. Why would you think otherwise ? Assumptions and speculations from a point of no experience simply don't hold water with me.

How do you give them that love an support if you don't see them for weeks at a time?

Hi Vicky. Thank you for clarifying a few things :) Much appreciated. Although some stuff posted by one poster in particular is imo verging on libellous and surely that should be enough to close a thread when that happens?

Hi LauraC, I asked you a few things earlier in this thread in the course of debate, and you haven't replied to me, whilst you have replied to quite a few others? I don't know if you missed my post, couldn't or didn't have a reply or thought it needed no response or was not worthy of one, which is fair enough, or would rather not mention some stuff on a thread. So if the latter, then I am quite willing to correspond instead by PM if that would be a preference?

Not something I would want for my child, but I know loads of people, and that includes my own state educated contemporaries, that had flings with someone older. When I was a new mother, I met a woman married to my husband's Chairman. She was in her 20's, he was 62. Just because you and I may disapprove doesn't mean that it doesn't happen.

Given that I'll hazard a wild guess here, you weren't privately educated, nor have you put any children through boarding school, so you aren't in any real position to offer any real basis upon which to make such statements - you simply haven't had the experience that some on this thread actually have. the word 'force' doesn't come into it. I had a choice, to stay with grandparents in Scotland and attend the local school, go to a school in Switzerland (called T.A.S.I.S.) or the choice of boarding schools in England, I chose Catsfield Place. I chose England as it allowed me to nip back home on exeat weekends to see my friends back 'home'. Did you notice those words, "I chose".

Besides which. A discussion on the pros /cons of boarding schools, now that wasn't why you started this thread, is it.

Hi LauraC, I asked you a few things earlier in this thread in the course of debate, and you haven't replied to me, whilst you have replied to quite a few others? I don't know if you missed my post, couldn't or didn't have a reply or thought it needed no response or was not worthy of one, which is fair enough, or would rather not mention some stuff on a thread. So if the latter, then I am quite willing to correspond instead by PM if that would be a preference?

I'm not deliberately ignoring you but was it who am I on digital spy? I'm not sure why it matters, I didn't post this thread there because I honestly don't think it is something that I personally want to bring up on a forum where people will take the piss out of ben and make judgements about his mum etc

[Pyramid*]

How do you give them that love an support if you don't see them for weeks at a time?

Do you realise how banal that really sounds! let's look at this another way to show how blinkered that suggestion really is: - A parent who has to work abroad then, ie: father in the forces, based in the Middle East for months at a time - how do you suspect they manage to love and support their children that the don't see for months on end?

I'm not sure why it matters, I didn't post this thread there because I honestly don't think it is something that I personally want to bring up on a forum where people will take the piss out of ben and make judgements about his mum etc

It was obvious to me that you brought it up to take the piss out of Ben. Why else start it?

[lauraC]

Given that I'll hazard a wild guess here, you weren't privately educated, nor have you put any children through boarding school, so you aren't in any real position to offer any real basis upon which to make such statements - you simply haven't had the experience that some on this thread actually have. the word 'force' doesn't come into it. I had a choice, to stay with grandparents in Scotland and attend the local school, go to a school in Switzerland (called T.A.S.I.S.) or the choice of boarding schools in England, I chose Catsfield Place. I chose England as it allowed me to nip back home on exeat weekends to see my friends back 'home'. Did you notice those words, "I chose".

Besides which. A discussion on the pros /cons of boarding schools, now that wasn't why you started this thread, is it.

I worked in a private school but it wasn't a boarding school it was excellent, a very very good school, there are loads of good school about I think sometimes it might be necessary to have children board but I don't think it's ideal

[pices]

you all seemed really bored Going on and on about mario's lack of interest in ben I thought I might provoke a real discussion, Does boarding school mess kids up? Is ben's attraction to old ladies him looking for a mother? Is it a sad story of childhood need or is it a kinky story of adult fetish?
Lots to discuss

Ben is not attracted to old ladies though, what do you define as old?I think most of the ladies he dates are of his own age or less, the fact that he accompanied some older ladies to posh events is neither here nor there, though as an older lady myself i can see why anyone would want Bens company at such places.

Why get your mind in such a muddle anyhow wondering what someone elses preferences are, its not something I would concern myself with tbh unless it looked dubious or illegal, whatever this 8 year old child did.....and lets face it at the age of eight it would not be likely to be of a sexual nature, why does it as you say 'not sit well with you' why are you concerned at all with boarding schools, replacement mummies, or adult fetish.
have you had a bad boarding school experience yourself on which you are deflecting on to someone else.
I dont ever get bored talking about housemates I wish to discuss, if I did I would not be discussing them.

[babycakes]

How do you give them that love an support if you don't see them for weeks at a time?

Again - you come out with assumptions ? Why would you do this unless you meant to seriously insult ?

You obviously know little of the system. You see them far more regularly than you suggest, and are in constant contact. Love and support are not exclusive to them being in a bedroom a few metres above your head.

Any parent who knows their child makes a choice that suits the personality and needs of that individual.

At this point I take my leave from this ridiculous thread - I'm not here to be batantly baited. I commented in response to a pretty insulting and utterly ludicrous statement.

[lauraC]

It was obvious to me that you brought it up to take the piss out of Ben. Why else start it?

It was something that have never been discussed I don't think it was ever brought up in the other forum, it interests me and to be honest the child ben was talking about had me really quite upset, but later I thought maybe I was being naive and the child was really 30 years old, to which yeah I would find hilarious to be honest

[Vodka Drinka]

You are now totally contradicting yourself, as you have done many times on this thread.

How why would anyone make judgements on Ben's mother. What a ludicrious suggestion - and what on earth is the connection to his mother - none.

Besides which, that's not the reason you didn't put this subject up on DS. You know fine well that your inferrances were bordering on being close to libel, and they'd have been taken off the site as soon as you put them up, that's a bit closer to the truth - given that you were proven to be factaully incorrect in your opening post and subsequent posts. Indeed, any hard hitting questions put to you, you simply could not answer.

DS are very sensitive to being open to lawsuits. The fact that your first post made mention of this being a 'private place' - when in fact, it's on webland and is accessible - shows you didn't want it aired to a wider audience, as you had nothing to back up your story telling.

60? that's the age a "close friend" told the tabloids
The kid (if there was one) was obviously deprived of a childhood and looking for comfort from a time when he was at home in nappies with his mother ( my Freudian guess)

I fail to see how speculating on a comment that was made is libelous...I may be missing the point entirely though :/

Thank you for your reply. However my post didn't just touch on those two things. It doesn't matter who you are on DS, but you brought up your were a member there not me, so I was just being inquisitive as to who you were? I don't mind anyone knowing who I was on DS or other BB forums if I posted on any others which I don't. I am not ashamed of many BB posts of mine on DS. I posted as Susann there until I asked for my account to be deactivated. As for yourself not posting there for the above you mentioned, sorry but that reads as a flimsy, what should it matter re threads there, that is what they have admin and mods for, and how do you know Ben will get pulled apart? or his mum? As it is you insinuating stuff that I outlined in my previous post to you. Are you maybe more worried about DS picking up on stuff you post on the subject and other members responses?

[lauraC]

Why should anyone make judgements about Bens mother???

this is becoming totally ridiculous now, how have we gone from Ben told a story about a childhood friend of 8 years old to Ben needing a mother replacement, his Mother being a bad one and Ben having Sexual fetishes, I think you are seriously stepping over the mark of decency tbh,you and moleymo are obsessed with Bens sexual preferences, why? whats it to you what someones preferences are.

[lauraC]

so why don't you post it there if you are confident that ben will not be laughed at and his family disected

[Vodka Drinka]

That's what a "close friend" told the tabloids, ben often mentioned his attraction to older woman in the house

OK then, why don't you provide us with a link to that story?

He might like older women, lots of young men do. But I've always assumed it to be women in their 30's and 40's.

The older woman he had an affair with was actually 42, which really isn't that much older than him when you think about it.

Anyway does it really bloody matter at the end of the day?

[Pyramid*]

It is something that interests you, a supposed discussion that was on Big Brother ove 5months ago, so interested you were that you never thought to discuss it at any time it 'supposedly' happened on BB?

let's not kid on here, you started this thread in an attempt to make it look as though Ben had some weird kinky thing going on with nappies - when in fact, all Ben had done was relay a story about a friend of his - a friend was was merely a little boy, all of 8 years old at the time.

The thread was started with very ill intent - it's a bit late in the day to pretend it was anything else - for you to now type up that 'the child Ben was talking about that upset you', - what a lot of tosh - you have spent pages upon pages on this very thread, arguing till you were blue in the face, that it was Ben that was at the heart of the story - so much that (remember) you 'swore it was the truth, on your mother's life'.

It's not smart, and it's not clever. it's also completely transparent.

[Suze]

I fail to see how speculating on a comment that was made is libelous...I may be missing the point entirely though :/

Maybe this is all getting out of hand, another reason this thread may have run it's course maybe? But in a post a few pages back there was no speculation, it was being classed as proof and truth.

when ben told the story I was actually a big fan and it did make me sad, it was only later after loads of massive bitch fests I actually went off ben so you are wrong!

[patsylimerick]

Whew.......that took a while to get through! I never attended boarding school, but my husband did and so did his siblings. His lot are a little more reserved than our lot, but much more independent, calm and measured, IMO. That's my near-personal knowledge of the subject and I wouldn't dream in 15 million years of judging any parents' decision in this regard. I'm flabbergasted that posters think its OK to be making the kind of tenuous amateur psychology connections that have been made in this thread. Flabbergasted.

[Pyramid*]

I fail to see how speculating on a comment that was made is libelous...I may be missing the point entirely though :/

In fairness - if you read through from page 1, you will find that Laura was arguing on pretty near knuckle things about Ben and was saying it waws the absolute truth etc, the recent posts that are now being put up - completely are in total contrast to what was being put up yesterday from page one onwards - total contrast.

[lauraC]

And what about the rest of my post Laura. Any chance of addressing that at all.....!

I think you are talking a load of baloney with the libel talk, Ben told the story not me i'm only commenting on it, I find the libel talk funny and a little desperate

[Suze]

why did you ask to be deactivated?

I will reply to you that answer in the same light if you choose to say who you post as there? After all, as you so rightly said to me, what interest is your username there, so what interest is my reason for deactivation to you then?

So the first one is just a news of the world trash story, which someone was paid to talk about, a third party.The second one far more factual and in Bens own words. So he seemed to enjoy being an escort, there is a lot of call for it for ladies, and I will bet Ben was very popular......must have earned shedloads and had the pleasure of some lovely venues and events.
So its basically as we said, that Ben escorted older ladies to posh functions, no dessert was on the menu and apart from one of his girlfriends mothers it appears he usually dates women much younger.
Is that it Laura, do you feel so much better for getting it off your chest dear, will you be able to sleep better now, I do hope so.
