It's all about perception.
Hazel never said she was assaulted. I used that word because technically that's what it was.

I never said it was "slapping her in the face". I said if Big Brother has rules about housemates physically "assaulting" each other and one housemate was reprimanded when he strikes another in the face, but someone isn't reprimanded for striking another on the arse then it creates a double standard.

You can't say a slap on the arse is different to one in the face because where do you draw the line? What about a slap on the leg, the arm?

If BB has rules, they have to stick to them and not pick and choose which body part it applies to.
