This thread was nothing more than a 'hey guys come on, lets quit it with then blah blah its childish'. Nothing about what mods should do to stop it. People have gotten VERY defensive in her as to why they should carry on attacking Becky and her weight.

Also being in the minority =/= being shown up :tongue:

...Perhaps because when it comes to reinforcing rules it is not your job to tell us what to do. What position are you in to do that?

Difference is if a moderator asks us to back down with the insults I certainly will, as I don't want to spend this series banned but if your name isn't in green then what makes you think that you - an ordinary member - has that power?

The way she gets upset at Deana and everyone else.

Not just that but the very fact that she makes such a deal about her weight makes her seem insecure. If she was happy the way she was she wouldn't go on about it. Like she's trying to constantly convince herself she's comfortable.

Yes you are right I should be a moderator.

So if she's going to make the fact she's fat, her little gimmick - then we're allowed to make remarks about it.

She's disgusting. It's appalling to see such a monster on television, the way she eats and acts, she's revolting in every way, shape and form.

:laugh2:

Now come on Redway, :) we are friends and you'd respect me if I'd posted this thread as I would if you had, yes? Jords may not be a mod but his request and points about Becky are his opinion to offer and for us to respect. He and I have very different views on Becky but we get by anyway. Don't be mad with me for saying this :(

:hug:

Jords 30-06-2012 11:56 PM

I dont mind what people say I still love them all in a twisted way.

And be poetic about it ~

I dont think Jords was telling anyone what to do,they were just asking quite nicely for the childish name calling to stop,imo if you are a fully functioning adult or indeed an intelligent teenager one should be able to put across their views without resorting to pointless silly names and for people with more than one brain cell it gets tedious,if people find it funny to jest in such a way that's fine how about doing it in PMs,then those of us who want to take the show seriously can get on with it,or maybe just all hire a school playground and you can all have fun at someone elses expense.now where's my skid lid :joker::joker:

I could never be mad at you, Kate. :hug:

I know it's just his opinion and I respect that but he stated it as a fact, which is annoying. You don't have to tag on 'imo' to every post but maybe if he offered some insight into why he feels the way he does we could understand him better.

oh come on! This was my OP

Can we stop the comments about how fat she is and thats she always eating? Its pretty shallow and theres no need for it BB is entertaining enough to discuss something else and not keep referring to her as a whale.

Adam is a big lad himself and its completely double standards to keep harking on about Becky.
1) Is it not shallow?
2) Is there nothing else interesting to talk about?
3) Is Adam also not fat?

Its not about opinions/facts why do people always fall back to this to support their argument. Goodness sake LOL :laugh:

i have been silly with my posts in this thread but being serious for a moment you should always try to treat others as you would like to be treated yourself!

But doesn't the fact that Adam is pretty popular on here show that most people wouldn't dislike Becky purely because of her size. A lot of people make shallow comments sure, I think we're probably all guilty of thinking quite superficially every now and then, but I'd like to think people wouldn't base a dislike of someone on size alone, there have been quite a few valid points made in here IMO about why it might be made out to be more of an issue with Becky than it is with Adam

There is another thread somewhere in which I was stating my views on Becky and Jords explained that he doesn't like people being judged just on their looks, weight, etc, which unfortunately happens a lot, too much, in the world today. I conceded his point and reinforced my own, which is my own reasons for not liking Becky and its not for her weight however, I'll not repeat them or we will be here all night :p

So hopefully that explains it better and I agree that it would be silly to have to put IMO after every post, we're hopefully sensible enough to take that as read :)

Anyway, let's focus on Conor and getting him out, and give Becky a rest, for now. Lol.

- gets egged by Conor fans - :laugh:

People dont understand how Becky can be so happy being overweight and therefore use this to take a disliking to her or begin to transfix that she must be fake thats why she gets frustrated when Deana probes her (who we should take note, does not probe Adam). In my opinion of course.

But regardless, its double standards to call somebody you like not a whale and somebody you dont like a whale if theyre both fat.

Edit: I can understand those who dont like Becky because shes a bit of an idiot btw or various other reasons, Im definitely not pro-Becky but I do like her and I feel sorry for the amount of abuse she has gotten. She seems a decent girl at heart.

To be fair, Adam is a bit overweight. Becky, on the other hand, is massively overweight. And all she does it eat & talk about food. They're two different situations, so they should be treated differently. Becky could loose 200lbs and she'd still be overweight. Adam could loose 30 and he'd back at a healthy weight.

If becky was concerned about her weight, and made it known, and didn't tuck into a chicken nug nug (with accompanying theme song) all the time, I bet people wouldn't say anything. It's because she doesn't care, why others dont either.

Poor guy

And yeah for the record I don't agree with the idea you can't be fat and happy, I know quite a few overweight blokes who are happy as they are

People don't say anything about Adam because he never makes it an issue himself, people did say stuff about Chris because he did by thinking he had a really good body. It's generally the same with most aspects of appearance, people have insulted Conor and Ashleigh's appearance because they both seem to hold themselves quite highly in that regard, as oppose to someone like Luke A

exactly this. :worship:

insults have been thrown around for other housemates about their appearance, and I don't see how it makes a difference to anything else that gets said on here. she brings it on herself with her non-stop comments about her weight and food.

This is what BB shows us! They are pushing the big fat food-loving girl to the MAX.

Just like they did with Lydia and her scheming, Benedict has vouched for her that they barely shown her fun-side.

Its what they do, to make these characters. Yes she clearly loves food but dont be raked in. And even so if shes happy why are people trying to purposely be nasty?

Becky: 'I don't give a ****. It winds me up when people talk about it...'

Conflicting statements in consecutive sentences. Classic cognitive dissonance.

She is full of conversations like this. ERGO it is obvious she is NOT happy about her weight. She is merely in denial about it.

MatthewS 01-07-2012 12:38 AM

She sang a song about chicken nuggets and made beautiful music by slapping her thighs together. And this is just from tonights episode. Its stuff like this why people get on her.

fruit_cake 01-07-2012 12:41 AM

she does seem to get very aggressive when she's questioned about it, not really a sign of her being completely 'comfortable' really.
