In the diary room she clearly agreed that she had been bullying Gary. So that is now put to bed and the people claiming that it wasn't bullying were wrong.

But why did BB let her get away with saying "he made me bully him."

Unbelieveable isn't it?

"His behaviour turned me into a bully. I take full responsibility for that."

Of course you do, Stephanie. Just like your second statement in that quote doesn't contradict the first!

I know wtf

Given the fact she said "he made me bully him" means she doesn't understand the definition of the word.

Why does it mean that?

Because how on earth can someone "make" you bully them? It makes no sense.

The whole point of bullying is an unfair advantage on one side/unprovoked attacks.

You have to wonder why she hasn't been thrown out of the house really. They've done it in cases of bullying before.

Where is the consistency?

Emily was ejected at 3am with no knickers on because she said the N word in a jokey rap song type way. Not a good idea, but a first offence.

Meanwhile, admitted bully Stephanie is allowed to bully people and then blame them for the bullying.

I see men spitting in the streets often. I thought it was unlawful but never seen or heard of any one being arrested..then there are all those who spit out gum, evidenced everywhere, especially out side supermarkets, yuk..just thought I'd add my two Penrith worth..carry on folks.

This is Not true. There was no rap song involved. It was blurted out right in the middle of a conversation. Charlie was saying that her belly was getting big and that she thought she might be pregnant. Emily said, "your pushing it out you N"

She was rightly ejected. Should have been tarred and feather before she went, the ignoramus.

And you think that is worse than relentlessly bullying a 70 year old disabled man????

Certainly not, stephanie should have been kicked out long ago, kicked with a very large boot.

And james should have been ejected too the moment he threatened a frail 70yo after the dutchess task.

If BB had taken proper action like they did in the Emma incident we wouldn't have had to witness their vile behaviour for nearly two weeks.

I saw that episode (you can still see it on youtube i think) and she didn't say it in an insulting way to cause harm, she said it in that 'street slang' way, like you would say 'homey' or 'geeza' or 'bro'. She used it in the way it's used in hip hop all the time.

It was just a poor choice of word because there is so much controversy and potential upset around the word, people have to be very careful when, where and how they say it. Plus, you have to have a pretty established relationship with the person you use it with so they know where you are coming from and won't take it as an insult.

BB is not the ideal place to sound it out as Emily found out. But she was not saying it with any venom or cruelty. It was meant in a hip hoppy way but it was a very poorly chosen word indeed, especially in those circumstances.

As Emily pointed out at the time, it wasn't the first time it had been used and Charley used it herself.

Either everyone can say it or nobody can. Even that vile woman who was sat with them (can't be bothered remembering her name) said it during the course of the kerfuffle and she got away with it too because she wasn't white.

The biggest irony of course is that Charley was one of the vilest housemates ever and not only was it tolerated, BB even fake evicted her to make sure she stayed in. Meanwhile, Emily, the decent person, had her life destroyed for using the same word Charley had.

I think people are getting carried away in here.

She didn't quite "admit" she was bullying him in the diary room warning segment. She just merely confirmed that she agrees with her behaviour being perceived as bullying. Those are two slightly different things.

She just didn't bother arguing against her behaviour being perceived differently by viewers.

No she clearly stated that his behaviour made her bully him. A definitive admission that bullying took place.

She didn't think she was bullying, she thought that denial would get her in more trouble.

How do you know that?

We can't guess her thoughts. All we can go by is what she said. She said that his behaviour made her bully him. So she admitted bullying. Anything else is stuff that you are making up.

Body language, and spaces between spoken words. Judi James isn't the only person who can read people. The longer the space between words, the harder it is to say those words. She didn't want to say she was bullying, but felt that she had to.

Perhaps those words were hard to say because she was ashamed of herself and reluctant to admit to the audience that she was bullying.

Apart from the spaces between words her eyes gave away that she didn't believe what she was having to say. You combine the two things together.

I think I would have a problem with someone who spits everywhere too, I would just handle it differently...........
