I have to admit that Dexter's VT put me right off the very first night of BB - and his behaviour the first couple of weeks in the house when he strutted about like a first class prick telling his unsavoury stories.
Apart from that, at times I thought he was okay in the house - I liked how he handled himself in the feud with Callum and I also liked how he was never nasty to anyone. At other times I thought he came across as sly, insincere and only really interested in himself. So he was never really on my radar as a fave or as my least fave.
But as it got down to fewer and fewer HM's and I was looking for someone to support (Dan was my fave and I never really felt the same about any of the others) I knew I could never support Dexter. I couldn't get past the VT thing - sugar daddy, all his sugar babes - a woman like an accessory for every occasion etc. No way could I support a man who treated women like objects. I realized he was probably lying or exaggerating his lifestyle to get into BB, but why would he want people to think he was like that?
The fact that he chose the objectification of women to advertise himself is not okay with me, personally. The rodeo thing - sleaze again, but there is no evidence whatsoever that he participated himself.
Why oh why do some people show themselves in such a poor light on their VT's? Then again, many people don't care obviously. Maybe I'm old fashioned, maybe it's the fact I have a teenage daughter, maybe it's my wife being a great woman's libber and loathing that type of man (or pretending to be that type of man) - or all 3!
