Whether you as a kid at school wore glasses and got called a geek, or chubby and called lazy etc..

As far as the black men having big *****. That's a just genetic fact, and most people (particularly women), seem to see it as a positive!

I'd just be worried of political correctness going so far that we can't EVER have a joke about our differences. Because when we lose humour and the ability to take the piss out of ourselves and each other, i feel it makes for a rather dull and sterile society.

Tell that to Aaron, maybe that will turn the frown upside down:spin:

I agree. But i tend to believe that it was more Aaron 'game playing theatrics', than serious dismay at the joke. He's a reasonably intelligent guy, i'd doubt he would be that shocked!

Well I am a black female with a mild disability and I do think that there is a hierarchy where white, able-bodied, heterosexual men think they sit on top ala Jay. Anyone who deviates from this is often seen as inferior and ripe for mockery (gay people, women, black/ British Asians, people with disability). Jay likes casual racist jokes because the jokes about black men who deviate from 'white man' ideal. And if you dare to challenge this white able bodied heterosexual men often say 'oh, you can't take a joke, it's just banter' etc.

And what stereotypes are there of white people? What is the stereotype of a straight white man? Exactly.

It's irrelevant whether it's a positive stereotype. Another so called positive racial stereotype is that black people are good at sport. I am not. This whole blacks can only do sport/ music is lazy, offensive as it reduces the cerebral qualities of black people eg I have a 1st from the best Uni in GB, so I intensely dislike being pigeon-holed as being sporty. I prefer rock music and hate R n B/ rap, but I am still black.

Jay should be thrown out for repeatedly making threats, urinating on Mark and coffee, pooing in freezer and racist jokes

Emily (BB8)got ejected - she made a racist though there was no malice - less offensive than Jay

Alexander (BB9) was evicted for making threats and gun gestures

Dennis (BB9) spat at Mo.

Kenneth Tong (BB10) was basically forced to jump the wall before he was ejected after he made threats.

Seriously though there's stereotypes for most groups of people, Women are bad drivers (gggrrrr) Men hate shopping, Irish people love drinking........ the list goes on, it's just a fact life, Black people are no more stereotyped than other people to be fair.

We should embrace our differences and celebrate them and not take it so darn serious all the time!

Mark's escapades since he left the house have been gross so it is hard to say which one was causing these antics.

The freezer is in the Storeroom. and 3 ex Hm's have confirmed it happened.

You'll be glad to know the Freezer was steam cleaned afterward

Why do people leave out the compliments. I understand that Irish women are the most beautiful in the world. I did not say that, Walter Raleigh said that before 1603.
