Polyamorous is a posh word for immorality
 
Thoughts? Bit judgmental of him I would say. Not that i think Jade actually even is Polyamorous but how is it immoral if someone is honest and upfront about how they are before getting into a relationship with someone?

He does come across a bit of a snob tbh, which is disappointing

I agree with him, because it's basically cheating, even if it's upfront. I think if you're in a relationship you should be faithful.

That's exactly why it's not cheating.

I like Joel but I definitely think he was OTT here.

I just don't like the idea of having many people on the go. It seems wrong to me.

Liam- 26-05-2015 09:42 AM

It's judgments like that which lead people to being apprehensive about being themselves.

I'm a Joel fan, but that really disappointed me, i thought he was better than that.

Well no it isn't really, if you start something with someone and tell them that you aren't exclusive then it's up to the other person to either accept that or move on :shrug: It wouldn't be for me and i would move on but monogamy doesn't suit everyone and i would much rather those people who can't do monogamy were upfront about it like that then to hide it and just cheat instead :shrug:

I agree with him,its a license to be a slapper

It seems wrong to me. I don't like it at all.

It's definitely not the sort of relationship I'd be interested in, but Jade's open about it and any guy pursuing a relationship with her knows what the deal is and must be okay with it.

the more I watch this girl the more i think she is not polyamourous by choice - :joker: i think when one guy/gal sees through her, she jumps to the next one.

I don't think she is really either but just take her out of the equation, I mean polyamorous people in general

Thats what she's done !! she's now onto Cristian ,who needs to back off pretty damn quick

Polyamory isn't a 'license' or an excuse to be a 'slapper' or any other derogatory term people want to throw around, it is the acceptance that monogamy isn't for everyone, only people who share that same mind set get into that scene so they obviously know what's happening, so it's not cheating if said partner knows about everything else that is happening and is happy with it.

Polyamory is not for me, I would never get involved in it, but i don't judge people who do believe in it, each to their own.

The constant need to belittle and insult someone just because they happen to think differently to you is disgusting.

As Bill Laswell said 'People are afraid of things they don't understand. They don't know how to relate. It threatens their security, their existence, their career, image.'

He's wrong. Polyamorous is just a nicer way of saying she's a dirty sl*g. It doesn't matter how you dress it up, it all boils down to the same thing.

Ramsay 26-05-2015 10:01 AM

I see no problem with it, as long as both people involved are up front and know about it.
It's her life, don't judge her for it.

bots 26-05-2015 10:03 AM

Like in everything else during this BB, Jade is held to a different standard by the house mates and the audience it seems. One rule for the others and another stricter rule for her.

She hasn't done more than cuddle a guy in this BB, by this time last year we had Winston and we had he who shall not be named ready to utter his immortal words.

I get that Jade sets herself up for it a bit, but its only a blinking game show, and she really hasn't done anything wrong :shrug:

Incorrect, not only that, but vile.

I actually agree with this.

Why don't some people believe that Jade is polyamourous or that Adjoa is a lesbian? Noone seems to have any problems believing that Jack is a virgin, Aaron is gay or that Danny is dull.

but we do understand...we understand what polyamorse is and I don't think anyone has a problem with that. we also understand that shady jady is using it as a buzz word to cover any and all 'incident's in the house. She doesn't think differently to anybody else - she has a run of the mill brain - just because you come out with 'buzzwords' like aura, energy, polyamouous, spiritual does not mean you practice it - talk is cheap, actions speak louder.

Believe me, we do understand. :dance:

Well the way she described it to the other HMs soon after they went in didn't sound right. She basically said I don't want to commit to one person atm but I will eventually settle down, that isn't polyamorous
