I don't know how much race plays into it. Ive read stuff about people being less trusting of other races subconsciously... But being black ive personally never found this. I think a lot of it is down to being a smart and sophisticated woman :( they're probably intimidated by the fact Saira can hold herself without needing to go on about drink, sex or just make a fool of herself

Welp I don't remember this (I really need to rewatch BB10) what did he do?

He made everyone bacon sandwiches and didn't cook the bacon. I didn't like Sree but we can't say he didn't try to bring Lisa's reign of terror to an end much earlier than it lasted

As for Saira, I love the good sis and she is a good girl, but I think she's generally not coming across the right way. She had good intentions, but she's just doing everything wrong in terms of how she's executing those intentions.

Yeah I'd agree with this (part of the reason I like her is because she is so blunt)

Although I think Bear blew things out of proportion (as well as being human trash generally) and what Marnie did at the end was really unnecessary

Oh yeah, exactly. It's sad because some people are just gonna take Bear and Marnie's side anyway because of how Saira's coming across, when that doesn't excuse their behavior at all.

She's making herself the outsider, it's not about being Asain....she's self righteous and it pushes people away

hot2go 31-07-2016 11:15 PM

Their behaviour is worse than hers but that doesn't make her suddenly any better, she's also a pain in the arse ...just not on their level tonight

I agree...her condescending attitude has turned people against her. Then when the tables turn she plays the victim. Saira will never accept the fact that she may be in the wrong...if she did she would get more respect.
I am not condoning the behaviour of Bear and Marnie..sounds like they took it too far.

speaking as a white british person, for non-white british people need to understand that white british people perfer to stay within are group, or not move out of the circle and we do all the same things, and feel more comfortable with it, where as south asian women are from a culture that is both alien and reserved, what if next years house has all the females from south asian backgrounds and with three south asian guys and three white males, think how that would backfire with a race and culture divided, and what would white british guys crave more than having drink and white girls in the house, and the dietary for eating would cause problems too, the problem is that south asian women tend to look down on others and having people from a reserved culture would never fit into the house, saira definitely has that culture norm of quick to judge and then puts her foot into it with a condescending attitude,

Apparently sentence structure isn't apart of white British culture either :nono:

Exactly.I noticed this too.She was a bitch to everyone and then when she got called out she played victim.She also can't comprehend that she might be at fault.

I don't really remember the other ones but this one is boring my balls off.

azi 01-08-2016 04:53 AM

I don't think it's racism (this series), it's just that she's so different from the young group and I can see that she feels like they don't like her so she tries to know them better but she does it in the wrong way. It's just a culture clash.
However the young group hatred for her could leads to them making racist remarks.

Amy Jade 01-08-2016 05:26 AM

Nicky from BB8 was pretty popular in the house before she started causing petty arguments. Hira and Benezair wwere generally well liked within their series by housemates too, it was the public support that was lacking.

To echo most in the thread - I think Shilpa and Deana are the only instances of people being ostracised just because of their race.

Josy 01-08-2016 06:35 AM

Could we for once just try to look at the persons personality and not what race they are and so on.

She's a bit full on is Saira, she can come across very rude and condescending at times, anyone can see that with what we are shown but as usual they choose to ignore that and blame other things on her being disliked.
