Ones I seen absolute love Jenkins, while this forum seems to either not care about him or hate him
Facebook will see him win

Oh interesting. I am warming to him a little but probably on the indifferent side so far

I don't mind Jenkin, we are not seeing enough of him to make a judgement but his lack of nominations are a plus for him

They are often, yeah. Zak is a real favourite it seems, but then I guess FB is mostly thirsty middle aged women these days :joker:
Henry is not liked at all.
Facebook is not a great place to have a nuanced or reasonable conversation, I get it, I have always preferred forums for that, but trying to engage with the posters there is a challenge.

They're all "thirsty" for Jenkin too are they?

Speaking as a middle aged woman, I don't like either Jenkin or Zak (I'm not overly thirsty as I'd rather have chocolate)

People have different reasons for being drawn to different HMs :shrug:
But, I am sure more than a few out there find him attractive. He seems to have been a bit of a player in the past, even if he self deprecates as a form of humour.

Tbh the old women usually have the best tastes in Big Brother, their opinions on the USA version were on point too with Cam leading the polls :clap2:

Finding someone attractive is usually not the main reason people like a HM though (unless you're shallow as a puddle) I don't think anyone has ever won BB UK just because they were good looking, you need a personality in there too (unless all the other HMs are really vile and then you might win on a bland buy nice technicality)

I think it's def a factor. Maybe not for the winner, there are way too many variables that go into that, but being easy on the eye has def kept some HMs in past their sell by date in the past. :shrug:
There are indeed many out there who are shallow as a puiddle :joker:

Anthony had the sympathy vote after being sexual harassed by Craig I think. I really wanted Eugene to win that year

Being a late comer and him taking half the money probably didn't help him (he was dead right to take it imo)

Yeah, it's trash. if it wasn't for a couple of gaming and music groups I was in I would get rid as well.
As a platform, it's pretty awful at everything it is supposed to be about.

I think to start with it's usually looks that get my attention, it's hard to keep all the personalities straight and the ones I learn to recognise first are the fit ones (this year I liked Hallie, Olivia, Matty and Trish). But after that, someone's personality can make me go right off them or right on them
All the other girls at school seemed to like Anthony, I didn't get it. I thought he was a tw*t (can I say that? I guess I'll find out)

...............slight change of direction but how does ITV recruit the late 'n live audience.............looks to myself that they have just rounded up
the customers from the nearest artisan bakery/coffee shop? audience type seems so narrow no old viewers.............and only those of a certain
type allowed...................

…my own personal perspective though is that the appeal/fan base of Zak for instance …may well be not so much older females because of his perceived sexist …those could equally alienate also…

It could a minority, I agree, but I don't think that many in reality are that bothered by that kind of playful banter between men and women. It happens all the time in real life. Men make jokes about women, women about men. Most older women, in my experience, get it and have fun with it :shrug:

I use TikTok and Instagram and Twitter .
None of those have anywhere near as many utterly and completely fake video clips as Facebook

"Sexual harasser" :joker: I suppose you missed America inviting Cam into the shower and him not joining her and her trying to do a dance for him and him thanking her for not doing it
Also the fact that your first response is that you think "women are horny" says a hell of a lot :umm2:

…yeah I do agree with that also, but I’ve equally seen, again from my perspective…being fine with certain behaviours themselves and within their own circle etc…but then not fine on that same behaviour in the house with housemates…maybe it’s that social media platforms such as Facebook…?…can be more likeminded and linked to likes…I honestly don’t know, I’m speculating tbh because I don’t do social media…but I have experienced in group chats what seems to be a mainly/largely younger fans and not always or even mainly female …but yeah, I agree …in that ‘is it sexism’/or no sexism at all is an example of debate/discussion that we’re here for and have always loved ….
