I guess it's a consequence of the age profile on here- heavily weighed towards the lower end of the scale.
The world is not black and white, as many will eventually learn. You could almost say it is........ 50 shades of grey!  |
I agree, also the reason that a lot of people seem to rewrite history to suit whoever they're a fan of... it's a very "young" thing to do, to see a situation based on who your friends are, rather than look objectively even if it means saying that a friend (or in this case, a housemate you like) has done something wrong even if it's against someone you dislike.
I'm actually really enjoying this year because I'm NOT picking sides and I'm not a huge fan of any of them. it makes it much more interesting, seeing a whole unbiased range of motivations and things they're experiencing in there. Hazel is often fake and nasty, but that doesn't mean she never has a real emotion and doesn't deserve any empathy, at the end of the day she's just a person too.
I mean... I like Dexter a lot, I find him hilarious, but I wouldn't trust the little bugger as far as I could throw him! he's very open about being a manipulator... which is oddly endearing.
I dint like Dan much but I can see that it's just how he is, a bit bitchy, a bit paranoid and he has his good moments too. funnily enough even though he's older, he does play the "taking sides" game where his friends are automatically in the right always. He's quite immature in many ways.
I can come up with positives and negatives for all of them, which I haven't been able to do in previous years, as I always "picked a camp" and rooted for them.
