I hear you. I also don't generally get on with extremely camp people, it's just a bit too over the top for me. However, I don't see why Callum couldn't just say he doesn't get along with overtly camp people, instead of specifically assigning a sexual orientation to it. It's not the camp part that's controversial or problematic, it's that he specifically mentioned gay people.

In his defense, he could have just misspoke, or said it without thinking it through. It's not like he's mentioned anything in the house that's homophobic at all. He also hasn't got along with Dan though, and he's not close with the gay twin either. I'm just not sure what to make of it really.
