Laurens accusation about Ron
 
Right I was in two minds about making this thread but oh well here goes..

I didn't like the way Lauren basically accused Ron of being transphobic while she was nominating him, what if he just genuinely dislikes her as a person?

And I'm wondering if anyone that openly says they don't like her is going to be accused of that too? :shrug:

That's a 100% given!

Pincho Paxton 29-08-2013 10:29 PM

I didn't see any transphobia, but we only see highlights.

I 1000% agree, great thread. I like lauren but that was poor taste. Granted were not in there so we cant pick up everything. she was maybe emotional and spur of the moment But she went down in my estimation with that statement. that's a pretty major thing to say about a person. and I cant really see much that hints ron is anti transgender, patronising and smarmy perhaps but anti transgender is too big aleap and too big a judgement to make

Lauren is right to have her opinion. Whether i agree or not doesn't really matter. She is entitled as is Ron to say what they both feel. Both are great housemates and will be staying anyways so none of it matters.

smudgie 29-08-2013 10:31 PM

Easy to latch on to I suppose.

His excuse was a bit lame mind, when he first mentioned her, saying I would be interesting to see how popular she was or not.

Maybe he just does not like her but is too polite to tell her.

fingers 29-08-2013 10:31 PM

Lauren doesn't believe that anyone could fail to LOVE her, so if they don't it can only be transphobia!

calling someone a bigot is a step too far imo

Great post, and Im glad you decided to post it.

And I fear the silly love for all things Lauren is similar to the bizarre support Sam got, much ado about nothing.

Lauren played the trans phobic card tonight and that was disgraceful and cowardly.

to be honest i think he doesn't like her for that reason and she knows it. so mentioned it in a of key manner, she didn't quite say that but implied it but i can see why.guess shouldn't though.

i think bruce feels that way maybe though .

karezza 29-08-2013 10:35 PM

Anyone who thinks Lauren is a disgusting, selfish, creepy, weird, unhygienic, annoying moaner will be accused of transphobia.

Amy Jade 29-08-2013 10:35 PM

There are a few people on here who dislike her and I don't blame it on transphobia, she's just like every other housemate, some like her some dont.

no people draw the line at making slanderous accusations that could up in a courtroom....what she said was on a par with calling someone a bigot or a racist. Maybe she thought about his past problem with racism and put 2 and 2 together and came up with 11....either way labelling someone a bigot is a serious accusation and not mere opinion

Niamh. 29-08-2013 10:36 PM

mmm it's not a good thing to accuse someone of without having good reason to say it to all the viewing audience. I would imagine his views are quite old school and she could well be right but I don't think she should have said it without being able to back it up with something other than the fact the she feels it

Johnnyuk123 29-08-2013 10:37 PM

Lets be honest here, Laurens contribution in the last 7 days has been 1000% more than Sams 10 week snooze fest contribution on civilian BB. She is a great housemate!

reece(: 29-08-2013 10:38 PM

Bit confused with the correlation of people who like Lauren are Sam fans.. care to elaborate?

That much is true, but people saying Lauren is "really funny"...that's going way over the top IMO.

Being funny is a personal thing. Lauren is funny as are others but she is funny, might not be your kind of funny but she is.

I am no fan of Ron's but I hate when a Hm plays the race ,creed, sexuality card. Pisses me right off.

Johnnyuk123 29-08-2013 10:45 PM

The BBOTS crowd are so biased towards Ron. If an ex burgler who served 9 yrs in prison got released and then went in the BB house does that automatically mean people should shout get them out the house before they steal from someone?

Same goes for playing the sympathy card for ailments like on civilian BB. Totally shamefull.

what is this old school broad brush statement to label millions of older people? there are loads of differences between people regardless of age. I detest that overused old school cliché and all the negative connotations that go with it
