definition of bullying
 
this is the persistant critising ridiculing and underming,which is designed to humiliate the person.
it could be verbal or physical intimidation.
most critical is that it makes the recipient feel upset,humiliated and vunerable.
the definition of bullyng is when someone deliberatly frightaens abuses,hurts another person physicaly,verbaly or mental.

Rex is bullying her, I don't care what anybody says.

AlexBigBrother 29-07-2008 12:01 AM

degrading someone, thats what i see bullying as

~Beachbum~ 29-07-2008 12:02 AM

yeah and he certainly degraded her. he had no right.

Indierock&roll 29-07-2008 12:04 AM

i still dont think hes bullying her... i think if he was saying it to someone else and they didnt give the reaction she gave it wouldnt be seen as bullying

jonsep 29-07-2008 12:04 AM

does that sound familiar?

He was only telling thing how he saw it. His method leaves a lot to be desired but he is right.

It's bullying in my book, and I have seen bullying in School/college to know what bullying is.

sweet66 29-07-2008 12:07 AM

yeah he is doing exactly that. he talks about how boring she is infront of everyone, humiliating her. and i think she responds too nice thats why he carries on. she will defend herself but never tells him to '**** off do you realise how offensive it is to say youd rather have scrabble than me'. i wish she would insult him back and tell him to **** off instead of worrying about herself.

the other day he apologised to her when he was talking about how boring she was and she started cryying and hes just done it again today! hes obsessed its like everyday..i mean wtf does he do thats so interesting

big brother should warn him!!!!!!!!!

i wish rachel reacted differently!

Spike 29-07-2008 12:09 AM

Rex isn't a bully
He just doesn't go about things in the right way like Darnell doesn't.
If he is bullying Rachel then the show should be took off because nobody can say the slightest thing without being accused of bullying

XxShortyxX 29-07-2008 12:11 AM

The show didn't get taken off when Jade and co bullied that women, whats her name?

Well he is by jonsep's definition :thumbs:

This bullying talk realy does make me LOL.

Rex was giving his opinion on what he saw! What did you expect him to do? He did set out to make Rachel cry (which I think was because she was found out). Rex is an honest guy who tells it like it is.

Jeez.

he did come across as a bully!
it was a complete attack to rachel!

Grazoink 29-07-2008 12:24 AM

i thought rex was a bit harsh with everythig he did tonight but at the end of the day its a game and they should treat it like one instead of complaints and moaning and all that nonsense give it up already

Keep it to himself like a polite, civilised person? Is that too much to ask? Or maybe, make his point and then shut the **** up going on and on about it until he makes someone cry. Would that really have been so difficult?

It's almost like he sets out to upset her- which is why people think it's bullying. And honesty is no excuse at all. Would it be ok to go up to a fat person and repeatedly call them fat until they got angry or upset?! You'd be being honest. Does that make it ok? Does that excuse all behaviour no matter how awful, just because you're an 'honest guy'?!

Jeez...

Cocteau8 29-07-2008 12:25 AM

An honest guy?! He was bullying, pure and simple. being a good old macho man talking down to her, hectoring her, without allowing her to get a word in edgeways. If he wanted to tell her how he saw it and not be bullying he would have allowed some comeback.

Over the years I have seen real bullying on rare occasions (against Shabaz springs to mind) but this was almost on a par in his efforts at humiliation. If he wanted to be honest and upfront he could have done so on a one-to-one basis, but he obviously likes the power that he has and used it, like the big boys at school against the vulnerable smaller boy - doing the humiliating in front of everybody.

rayheartbliss 29-07-2008 12:28 AM

i tell ya!
i loved him enough to win...but hes nasty.. :/
its now getting in the same case as it was with luke and rebecca for me.
am not supporting rex anymore, but still a little bit unsure with him.

decdec456 29-07-2008 09:19 AM

it\'s hardly bullying
 
He speaks to her in a normal voice tone

Let's her speak her point

Maybe she doesn't get it across well but thats her problem

Bullying is Alexandra

Rex is Sense

XxShortyxX 29-07-2008 09:53 AM

Rex didn't let her speak! I watched for 3 hours of LF and at obe point he wouldn't even let her talk, of course BB don't show all of this though, oh no :rolleyes:

But he gave her no opportunity to explain, he kept cutting her down when she tried to talk, he is bullying her, i agree with what she said it is hard to be a big character when there are some already around who get the attention, she may not be the way she is in her VT when around Rex but it doesn't mean she isnt like that when he's not around

Ella 29-07-2008 10:34 AM

Rex was just saying was everybody in the house was thinking, he could have said in with more finesse but at least he had the balls to say it.
