Lets see if Dapper can drag himself away from Ashley whilst the 'kids are in town'.....this task must be made for him...with 9 kids he should be the most experienced :laugh:..

Unless he's just good at making them rather than interacting.

it’s all good, i meant it in a dry-funny kind of way

when i saw it i laughed at it and then saw that it was aimed at me and thought “oh ****!” ha ha

but nah i’m not offended, i find you funny

I **** up with this all of the time...makes me feel like a terrible parent but I am such a sweary person that it just comes out a lot. My husband goes mental with me over it but swearing is just such a normal part of my everyday language and has been for like 16 years now that even after 5 years of having young ones around I still mess up, regularly. I fellover the cat the other day and really hurt my toe and shouted 'that ****ing cat' and apparently my daughter went into school to tell the teacher about 'the ****ing cat' D: So that was a fun conversation..

Vicky...we are all human :laugh:

on the transgender debate though, does a trans person’s parents normally re-name them? because india said that her mum (Sandra) named her after her favourite takeaway. and idk about you, but i have never gotten anything from my local Jonathan , so I assume that she means that her mum named her India after an Indian takeaway? I just thought that you would choose your own name yourself

I don't think there's a single parent that's not sworn in front of their children :laugh: aw Vicky don't say that :hug: having a few slips of the tongue doesn't mean you're a terrible parent!

India was being sarcastic about that :joker: And India transitioned at like 50 y/o so I think she's old enough to name herself :joker:

I don't think she was being serious.

You arnt getting what im saying...even now you're calling that person he and him and probably don't even know you're doing it. Not your fault and you shouldn't be made to feel bad about it either it's just how you feel instinctively about trans women.

You aren't comfortable with calling someone who wasn't born female she....am I wrong?

I do agree that kids can form their own opinion and if someone looks particularly like a man in a dress ofcourse they will comment and as awkward as it is they speak their mind....ive been in the situation with my brother cmoment ing on someone's appearence on a train once and it's mortifying.

But that's what's make kids great I suppose lol.

sorry but i find this quite funny :laugh: reminds me of our Dod (one of my housemates) when our dog started sleeping on “his spot” on the sofa. “shift yer arsh, tricia”

i made him sit on the floor for speaking to our dog like that :laugh:
so he went out

:joker: mess I'm sorry I'm imagining Sandra holding India's hand in line at the office while India waits in preparation to hear what her mum's called her, and when she says 'India' she asks why, and that entire conversation comes up :laugh:

The name change is on the person's own accord, regardless of age. My friend has his name changed to the name he preferred (he's trans and had his name changed when he was 15, I think it was legally but I don't know?) and my friend's brother also changed his name, and he's 13 and trans... ironically they both chase the same name

If only Tammie was in the house instead of boring pontificating old Courtney.

Morgan i love your sig even more now :joker:

I think that story was made up. I think India chose that name. i don't think India would have let her mum have a say in it..

But I don't know if he is actually trans, or is just a feminine guy who likes stereotypically womens clothing, or a drag queen (granted he would be a less..brash...drag queen if thats what he was) :suspect: He did not clarify this.And given he was on about boys liking to wear makeup, that does sound to me like he is the correct pronoun to use anyway

I use preferred pronouns generally. My issue with India was that as she was going on constantly about being male, so I was ****ing up on pronouns. So was attempting to not **** up by using entirely gender neutral pronouns. After our talk the other day though I did try with she, and only messed up twice which wasn't as bad as I thought :laugh: I actually didn't realise people would find gender neutral pronouns quite so offensive. My brain had such a disconnect with India...

apart from katie hopkins’s daughter, never heard of the name India

Haha omg! Yeah I can't compare to being a parent but as the only elder boy in my family looking after the kids when I was younger I know what you mean.

I called my dog a twat once for malting all over the clean washing and guess the word the little ones picked up for him? ....twat.

This is actually going to be hilarious IMO.

“dad i’m taking the twat out for a walk”

"I thought your mum was at work?"

^
my mum 20 years ago telling my grandad she’s taking me out for a walk

oh you cheeky sod

:laugh:

Wtf is up with this series and these ridiculous tasks :facepalm:

How long before one of the kids is referred to as Ginuwineley's kid?

Thank god that this isn't happening on the BBC.:hehe:
























Yes I made a below the belt comment, but they're the best jokes.:dance:

:joker::joker::joker:

This task actually sounds quite good. I'm looking forward to it

One of your best posts here :laugh:

They won't be staying over. As the house is being recorded 24/7, they're technically "performing" the entire time they're in there, and at their age that can't be over five hours. Also, there will be parents/chaperones following them around in the camera run at all times, they're not allowed to let them out of their sight.

one big baby leaves and some kids enter?

fair swap

Looking forward to this task. Will be interesting to see how each HM reacts.

i wonder if there will be a kid that is taller than wayne sleep

Wayne Sleep to be picked on by the kids because of his height?

:shocked::nono:

Probably just means 50 year olds since they’re children relative to who’s in the house rn

:dance: :dance:

I hope a gobby girl drags Malika

I'd rather they sent puppies in there.
