All this talk of "context" and "good reasons" is pretty dubious; those things are purely subjective / opinion based, there's just no way to argue otherwise.

So it's either OK to use "the sea word" to casually insult someone, or it isn't. If it was wrong for Lewis to call Sian a ****, then it was wrong for Brooke to call Lewis a ****.

Personally I don't really have an issue with anyone calling anyone a **** or anything else and tbh I do find all of the hand-wringing about it to be a little disingenuous . Also I think it's worth mentioning that it's a word that's been thrown around this BB house a lot... in aggressive ways, in jokey ways, even in strangely affectionate ways... so it's not really that unusual for it to be catching on as "general housemate vocabulary". Trying to reframe it as some sort of Voldemort-esque term that should never be used lest the fabric of reality begin to unfold, I personally find a bit odd. It's a word, you daft ****s
