Well - I know that Livia won't see this, but I do want to stand my ground. If you look at what people were saying, particularly the exchanges between Niamh and lostalex, and Black Dagger twice calling her a tramp, none of it was because she'd said what she said on the first night, it was because of what she said full stop.
Yes, I know that the forum is for people to discuss housemates, but ultimately they are real people, even if their BB personas are partially false, and the forum members are real people too.
And as real people passing judgements on real people, IMO calling them tramps, cheap, seedy, does deserve to be challenged. I thought that as a society we no longer regarded it as acceptable to call a woman a tramp because of her sexual activities.
Finally, apologies to cmd for getting her gender wrong, but it's not relevant to my position. I don't regard physical violence in a relationship as a laughing matter, and I'm even more surprised that a woman would.
Anyway - I didn't come here as a troll, I simply didn't realise that the forum ethos is that people can say what they like about housemates but not have what they say criticised.
