With that said, I DEFINITELY DEFINITELY think race has come into play for Christina. Without a doubt. She's acting like Tiffany doesn't even exist, like she's not a person, like she's a coat hanger or a chair. She was the one who suddenly felt "unsafe" and "threatened" when Tiffany started yelling, even though she was in no danger whatsoever.

While I do think racist attitudes have been subtly shown, in the case of Daniella and sometimes John, I'm not one to cry race over instances where it's completely left out; however, as tensions brew in the house, certain attitudes have been adopted and certain comments have been made that are certainly questionable, given their contexts, intonations, and implications.
Trust me when I say I'm an incredibly politically incorrect person; I too think it's silly to casually blame racism for basic obstacles and disputes. However, even my oblivious ass can see that this woman is giving off one HELL of a racist vibe.
I don't much like her, but I haven't noticed any racism from her at all.
On Strictly Come Dancing, over time she has been partnered with 2 black men and seemed to get on great with them...maybe she's just anti - Tiffany...
