I'm not bothered by most of the 'psychologists' they get on BOTS, but The Speakmans talk utter ****e. They've been on BOTS a few times now, and every time I've watched they've basically just gave their opinions with no psychoanalysis whatsoever.

This^^

They gave no insight. As you said, just their own opinions.

You clearly believe in such a thing as polyamorous, I don't.

And this is what it all comes down to I suppose. Polyamory is a lifestyle, and so it's not something that you can believe in or not believe in. It exists because people live their lives that way, so when you say you don't believe in it, what you're really saying is that you don't agree with it, or you're uncomfortable with it, or you just don't want to acknowledge it. These things come from you and your understanding of something, or inability to understand something, and yet it's Jade who is demonised as a result. I'd say that's discrimination

She tries to dress it up as a spiritual thing when it's just code-word for slut.
Jade is not being discriminated against for this but for being a horrible person.

Aye. Basically swingers with commitment issues. They like sex.

So basically your reply is just to put me down & say that there is something wrong with me ?. Nice (!).
I could not give a flying **** how Jade attempts to justify her lifestyle outside the house but inside the house she IS using it as an excuse to behave a certain way.
DO NOT say I have an inability to understand something.
You should really think more before YOU do something you just accused me of doing to Jade.

So she is basically single and likes to do whatever she wants with whom ever she wants, no harm in that!. Poly this Poly that, I though a new housemate called Polly was going in!

Aye. That is the point.

She wants to give herself a sexual term and trying to justify it when there is no need to. Just say. 'i like sex with many partners and i don't want commitment. Nothing wrong with that.

She was really creepy in the way she was touching Cristian.
She has flirted with Danny & Marc & kissed Brian.
And she has the nerve to criticize Harry.

Jade has done a great service to all the slappers and chavs in the country. Whereas a girl was once called loose, easy and the town bike before, these girls have now found a new vocation in life, they are now all calling themselves Polyamourous. Well done Jade for giving these girls a reason to live, but for what its worth lovie, this mans not buying your story, you are just a slag and are dressing it up with Jazzy words to look interesting.

I just get a bit fed up when every form of degeneracy is reduced to a "life style choice" and is therefore somehow immune from criticism. Or else you're being some sort of narrow minded bigot

There's quite a lot wrong with discrimination and prejudice (can't believe that even needs to be said). Basic humanity for example? I'm kind of hoping your post was just a bad joke to be honest
A great thinker by the name of Edmund Burke once wrote in praise of prejudice.

Discrimination is a necessary part of life and prejudice "renders a man's virtue his habit". It doesn't mean you're being inhumane. And most people who speak out against prejudice have their own prejudices (usually against anything "right wing")

I don't know why people care so much, ****ing hell!

smiley55 19-06-2015 01:00 PM

Christian did the same in the pool, clearly positioned himself in behind her in the bath, don't remember her flirting with danny or mark and Brian kissed her .

Jemal 19-06-2015 01:00 PM

Lol if a guy was to say he was polyamaursaurus or whatever it is, would it be worse than what jade has received? I think so

It's not just sex tho she said she likes being in a relationship with many partners so obviously it's more than just sex.

Ok, if I was personal then I apologise, I'm not trying to insult you or have this descend into an argument, I just feel that it's unfair for jade (or anyone) to be judged for a lifestyle like polyamory. If you don't like her as a person then fair enough but bringing it back to the original point, if people are forming their opinions on her based on her polyamory then I think that constitutes discrimination.

just thinkin 19-06-2015 01:01 PM

the more I think of it, the more I am beginning to believe that shady jady and her boyfriend...yes (I have someone on the outside) had a little discussion about how best to win the money on BB.

they decided she would be polyamourous, i.e. get what she can and do what she has to do to get the money...hence the 'excuse' for jumping from male to male in the house...polyamorousy covers all that.

IN actual fact I don't think she knows herself what it is.

She's out to use whoever and whatever she can to get ahead....not to be trusted.

They can be if they want but not at the expense of the truth.

Look at this whole thread... People are purposely misunderstanding the criticisms of Jade so they can get on their high horse about sexism.

People's problem with Jade is that she told a bare faced lie about Cristian coming on to her. Apparently the truth has to be buried beneath all this crap about sexism in the same way the truth about young girls being abused had to be buried beneath accusations of racism towards anyone who brought it up.

I'm fed up with people lying.

Thank you for the apology.
I don't mind Jade but I personally feel that sometimes she has brought the negative reactions on herself by using polyamorous.
But I have also said that I think she IS being sexually discriminated against as a man would get away with it. Just look at Nick.

There was also the woman who came in with Rylan when time was frozen who said that she doesn't believe Jade is polyamorous and is using it as a way to appear unique. Is she saying that polyamory isn't a real thing? The issue I have with all this is just because you can't relate to something and you don't understand it, that doesn't excuse shutting your mind off to it. I'm not polyamorous, I can't imagine I'd ever want to be and I'm pretty ignorant to it as a lifestyle, but I certainly wouldn't judge someone negatively because of my ignorance.


Id give it a try

So, a reverse harem would be good for her!

She does not want commitment at this time. She likes many partners who will give different sexual needs.

its not the kind of thing that makes a winner - so a bit of a pointless plan - and what on Earth about Nick - he and her are the same

Like Jade

JTM45 19-06-2015 01:11 PM

She's just said to Brian that she was in a monogamous relationship up until a month before going into the house so that just further confirms the fact that she probably spotted something on the net about being polyamorous just before going in the house and thought it would make her seem more interesting.
I think she's just one of these girls that finds it hard to be faithful because she can't resist male attention............going on how she's behaved in the house anyway!

I just find her ridiculous!!!!:laugh:

chuff me dizzy 19-06-2015 01:13 PM

As Helen said Polyamorous is just a tag to make her sound interesting
