I think you'd have had a stronger argument if you'd have taken the word 'feminist' out of the second paragraph. I don't think her choices have anything much to do with feminism. Nobody in the BB...

Not watching because of the Biggins fiasco. I would like Sam to win, for what it's worth.

The spitting was pretty nasty but I wouldn't think of it as a very serious crime. The idea of seeking medical advice seemed out of character for the BB staff when you consider the countless examples...

There is no freedom of speech without the freedom to offend. Every racist/homophobic/ sexist comment is an opportunity to refute and debate. How strange that BB gives prominent warnings at the...

But what are the facts? The sexual attraction of an individual to both sexes is bisexuality: that's a fact. However, that doesn't mean you can't discuss the impact of bisexuality and the notion of...

Okay, we're on the same page regarding people's hypersensitivity. I find it more difficult to understand the extent of your dislike of Biggins, nor do I agree with your observations regarding gay...

The point being made is that Biggins is another victim of PC sensibilities. You say you agree and then condemn him ("It's always been glaringly obvious to me what he's like.") and then have a swipe...

Okay, let's clear this up: you don't brand people with a brush, you brand with an iron. It's slightly ridiculous to demand clarity from people when you're talking about branding with brushes!

Thanks. So much has changed for the better for LGBT people, yet I find the fear of words and the rush to condemn people out of hand, extraordinary. I was chatting to a fairly young person recently...

Your lack of respect is coming through loud and clear. It seems pretty clear that he was complaining about gay people who've pretended to be bi so as to be more easily accepted. Before you dismiss...

The mania for being a victim and giving other human beings titles like 'Bigot', 'Misogynist' etc - which reduce the accused to the status of non-person - has now entered the BB house. As it happens I...

Charlotte is a victim of her own yucky image, she already seems uncomfortable with it herself. But let's be honest, it's all she's got.

I don't understand people having a problem with Charlotte...
