Jemima did nothing wrong...end of!!

If Gina would not have made an issue out of the whole thing, I don't think Big Brother would have reacted to it, but they are **** scared of any scandals now and have to cover themselves at every opportunity. As far as I could gather, she was talking about her preferences in general. I didn't hear her say she could never find a black man attractive. I would say it had more to do with human nature than racism. I actually wonder if this would have been a talking point had the annoying bitch not made such an issue out of it.

Yes it is. You are referring to billions of people as one homogenous hot mass based on their race. The statement disregards any individuality identity or unique characteristics. They're all the same.

Urgh gina is pure poison she orchestrated that whole scenario out of nothing, there was no malicious intent in the initial statement by jemima.
Gina following her around the house was much more intimidating.

No its not. All asians are so hot is prejudice not racism. Gina could leave the house now with her head held high.

and you don't see how that would be offensive?

The converse does not seem to apply, however, and the "white man - black woman" combination is a relative rarity.

No. What's racist is to say a black woman like Gina wouldn't find a white guy attractive.
