How come, Ziggy is allowed to be offended but Charley is not?
 

How come Emily said the N-Word to Charley, Charley was offended (apparently). Big Brother then removed Emily because she broke a fundamental rule by saying something that could cause offence to another housemate or to the viewing public.

This week Charley called Ziggy a pervert, Ziggy was very offended about this, Ziggy even complained to Big Brother about this, He advised Big Brother he was upset and offended. He also specifically asked Big Brother to do something about it.

Charley is still in the house. How is that fair?

agentcollins : *im so angry im gonna burn all black faces in my heat magazine.*

OK, so that means all the perverts in the UK are gonna be offended as well...?

Ziggy is a prick and hooking up with a 19 year old is desperate for some alliance in the Big Brother house.

....

*ethnic minorities get so much better treatment*

I don't think you can really compare the two...since Ziggy came and claimed he wanted to leave and he would absoloutely never ever ever change his mind until a few hours later and he asked them to do something about it etc. makes me think it was more of a tactical move (:

No, It means if your black you can get away with what you want.

One rule for some, different for others.

Yeah, init... Black people have got away with soooo much through the past centuries...

They get away with every thing. Its alright them calling us Perverts, and Stupid but its not alright for us to call them Negros.

absolutly ridoculous init collins... im gona smack that american history x dvd in.

Ziggy called emily a slut and he called laura a lesbian because she didnt fancy him hes a ****ing prick tbh

are you being serious??

People act like the majority of the population cant be offended e.g. streight, christian, white. Saying **** all christians is treated like its completely different to saying **** all jews.

Agree 100%.

I dont condone anyone making fun of any race, religion or whatever, but it should be one rule for EVERYONE.

The argument was extremely heated and we now know that not only did Charley state that Ziggy was a pervert but she also claimed that Ziggy had flashed at her. BB bosses have trawled through tapes but can't find any evidence of this at all?

There is an injustice of sorts but it is not the same as the Emily/Charley saga. It does need sorting though and it will be ineresting to see what develops

Edited to put thread relating to the flashing story.

why have we started on this again? it's so sad that some people will use anything to try and defend racist people. lot's of people in that house have thrown words about. let's stop getting silly.

Totally agree with you Sunlight but it seems that people are still feeling agrieveved by this issue. The two are totally separate in my opinion and Ziggy although hurt by it, was more thinking about public perception of him as I think he thinks there is going to be ZIGGYMANIA when he leaves the house.

i hate ziggy get him out.

Because blatantly, Ziggy was not offended, he was just trying to get Charley into trouble.

Nicky called Jonathon a pervert too. Should she be punished as well then?

Charley certainly seems to be favoured by BB.

If they want to be associated with a psychopathic bully with more insecurities than securicor's vans, then fine, but they must hold some responsibility when she's put back on the streets, as by helping her stay in, it's just making what is likely to come to her in the real world, worse.

BB isn't the brightest and by keeping Charley in, it keeps people talking.

But BB is fixed every year, not just this, so it's not like a brand new shock horror.

I just find it amusing people moaning about things when in previous years, maybe their favourites (Anthony, Nadia, Pete etc) have all been favoured

Swings and roundabouts, but I agree, get her out and feed her to her adoring(?) public

i bet if she is up they will changed the voting who do you want to stay they will know people may actually want to keep her in.

Charley is favored by Big Brother, definitely...but being perverted is something you adapt.


and I think your topic title isn't correct.
