People fat shaming/insulting Jenkin due to his weight
 
People shouldn’t be fat shaming him/insulting him due to his weight. Many reasons to dislike him but that shouldn’t be used as an insult. :nono:

Indeed. Especially as he could be a major asset to the house. There are all sorts of things he could handily store in his fat rolls.

Sure
but I can say he is Obese

And it affects his whole Life

I agree....some of the comments have been horrible

bots 06-11-2023 06:23 AM

it's a key part of the person he is. His life is entirely centred on feeding his face. It affects all his decision making and has an influence on his interactions with other housemates. It really can't be ignored.

Guaranteed if he was a popular player everyone would be up in arms.

i've seen some very spiteful comments about Olivia too, where is the outrage there? :laugh:

AnnieK 06-11-2023 06:36 AM

People are exaggerating it though...I saw a post saying he can barely walk etc. That's just bull.

He has plenty of personality traits that can be used to beat him, he's selfish, bitchy and pretty lazy. Its just an easy insult and pretty lazy to call him fat :shrug: Just my opinion of course but its a little uncomfortable too.

The name calling of any housemates appearances is juvenile and not needed in my opinion.

Call them out on personality traits but not on their looks / appearance

Cherie 06-11-2023 06:42 AM

its horrible, I have seen him called smelly, how can anyone tell that from a screen :shrug:

I’ve seen it mainly on here about Jenkin. But appearance in general shouldn’t be a way to insult.

bots 06-11-2023 06:49 AM

For me, there have been some very amusing comments (to me) like if it had been a bag of donuts he would have held it all night. Am i bad for finding that funny? :laugh:

…it’s not something that I’ve seen said as any key part or influence, though…it’s said in a derogatory way as an unnecessary insult …and doing that can often contribute to someone’s weight issues…that can’t be ignored, either…

…I don’t know which specific comments they would be…but two wrongs would never make a right though…

rusticgal 06-11-2023 08:39 AM

Yes no need for it....we should be discussing character traits not appearance.

MTVN 06-11-2023 08:41 AM

Agree he shouldn't be getting insulted for his weight just for the sake of it but unfortunately his greed does influence his actions a lot of the time - refusing to share his birthday cake, his tantrums over the shopping list, controlling what other people take from the storeroom while often hogging things from there himself

thesheriff443 06-11-2023 08:49 AM

He’s a fat bastard, deal with it
Not only that he is a greedy spiteful fat bastard

thesheriff443 06-11-2023 08:52 AM

Tom is scrawny little bitch boy

Channele’s got fish lips and two faces

I get that to a point, but when obesity is clearly down to gluttony I am a bit more forgiving of comments like these.

People can be big for many reasons, often beyond their control, and they should be shown kindess and respect, but laziness and gluttony are not ones that I think should be on that list.

ebandit 06-11-2023 09:29 AM

............for myself the sad thing is members calling HM's juvenile resorting to petty name calling.....
i even heard dylan called 'hopalong cassidy'

I would never talk about someone's weight. I'm not skinny myself.

GoldHeart 06-11-2023 10:10 AM

His weight is mentioned ,because this is the same man who lied about never getting any food ,and how he's " wasting away". He's a lazy slob ,and the only time he gets off his bum is to grab all the food & alcohol ,along with his mates. He didn't want Yinrun or the others having any of his birthday cake either , he's greedy & selfish. He only thinks about food & himself.

Gluttony is not a good trait .

Babayaro. 06-11-2023 10:20 AM

Agreed, it’s not nice at all to read. I will never understand the mindset someone has for them to attack another person’s appearance.
