Yes it does, the question in the OP is 'was Gemma right to accept the professional blow dry?', in the real world the answer would of course be no, there is no denying the act is completely selfish, but within the confines of an entertainment programme the decision was for the purposes of the show the correct one, and Gemma understands this.

Her being on a TV show doesn't make her accepting it any less selfish, that's not what I'm arguing, but it does make her decision to be selfish a righteous one because this is TV, not real life. Kirk's post about how there couldn't be any other way of seeing it is what I was disputing.
