Sorry but how can you refer to India as 'he'?
Ann is going down in my estimations already

Just a simple error. No more.

"If you hadn't been talking about it so much I wouldn't have been conscious of you any other way," responds Ann.
Erm, like this?
We probably won't see the leadup though.

she could call someone a giraffe and its still perfectly fine. It may not be very polite but there is no law saying you must address everyone in a particular way.

She didn't seem very apologetic or shocked by her comment from the clip I've seen on Twitter. Doesn't seem like a mistake to me but we'll see.

If it was intended, then maybe Ann hasn't forgotten BedGate.:joker:

Yeah I'm starting to hope India has anything - literally anything else - to talk about at this point because it's getting a bit samey.
This could just be a mistake so I'll wait for the clip of it to emerge.

Oooooops, not good.
I want to see more of her personality than being a trans woman, hoping that's not her whole story whilst in there.
It wasn't done in a malicious way from the clip I've seen of it. Ann says 'Oh I do beg your pardon' as in an apology and then justifies herself later on when India confronts her about it by saying if India hadn't been talking about it so much she wouldn't have done it and India was understanding.

I haven't seen the clip but it can be an easy mistake to make to be fair. I know I've done it with a friend of mine, sometimes you do think of the persons trans status if it's being talked about so the slip up can happen easily, even if you think of them as the opposite gender to that. Just depends if it was intentional or not really.

I think it was (is) to do with the HMs talking about their first names and how they were given them by their mothers. India mentioned something and Ann quipped "he is pulling your leg" meaning India and quickly the others reminded Ann that India was a she.

Honestly Ann hasn't displayed any anti LGBT behavior if anything she's very friendly with India... I would think it's a simple but silly mistake

When it was pointed out to Ann she immediately apologised.
Can't be much going on if that was the drama.

Yeah, Ann made a mistake and apologised, there's no malicious intent there, I think.
