Thoughts?

Niamh. · 17-10-2023, 08:55 PM

Yes

Vanessa · 17-10-2023, 08:57 PM

He's coming across horrendous!

AnnieK · 17-10-2023, 08:57 PM

He has certainly come across that way

I think he thought he was being funny but he just came across as a nob

jones89 · 17-10-2023, 09:03 PM

Nah, he’s jokes. If the same kinda stuff was said to a man it would be all good. Maybe because men don’t take things so seriously, i dunno, but that’s what i think

Or maybe men don't face sexism on the same level as women....

That's a bit of a sexist assumption.

Was Niamh being sexist in this thread? Shall I do a poll?

Niamh. · 17-10-2023, 09:01 PM

It's just an odd way to joke around

Adamw92 · 17-10-2023, 09:02 PM

Not really, no. I don’t think it’s that deep but he could do with toning down when he’s being a wind up.

3 women say yes, 1 man says no

would be boring if we all agreed I suppose.

I got the impression he was being a wind up merchant , but he was acting far too silly tonight. He's made a target for himself. So i guess he's going home next.

I find it laughable though .... hm's talking about him being 'fake' &
'game plans' , when a few of them are playing up to the camera's themselves. They should look in the mirror.

He seemed to be in an irritable mood, and his wind-up seemed part jokey and part serious. I didn’t expect those comments because of the way he speaks about his Mum, the words he used to support and empower Yinrun and due to the thoughtful and considerate advice he offered Hallie to calm her tantrums. For these reasons, he doesn’t come across as sexist to me, but he was close to crossing a line during his wind-up.

I have to agree with you that the ‘fake’ accusations though - they were rather ironic, considering who made them!

Dogeatdog · 18-10-2023, 02:47 PM

Yh I mean the comments he made did come across to me as sexist. I think he said it as a joke but he ended up making himself look like a complete div and tbh I think he knew this himself especially when he had that little pop at Trish which turned out to be banter apparently?

I do feel like Zak wears a smile like a mask in there quite a lot and soon enough his true personality will come through.

I kinda get why people might find him fake but what made me laugh the most were the people who was discussing this which was Kerry and Hallie. To me they’ve been the fakest housemates so far and have definitely been playing up to the cameras.

I don’t think he has a game plan because (and not in a nasty way) but I don’t think he has the intelligence to have one especially if he’s blurting out sexist comments within the first 2 weeks.

Scarlett. · 17-10-2023, 09:03 PM

I think so, he tried to play it off as a joke, but I think he kind of meant it

smudgie · 17-10-2023, 09:05 PM

Nah, but he is a big wind up.

Beso · 17-10-2023, 09:09 PM

He actually looks like sid the sexist, so yeah.

Swan · 17-10-2023, 09:11 PM

I mean, i doubt he's truly a sexist guy, he idolises his mother. I think he was a bit misunderstood with it. Trish didn't help by trying to make a huge thing straight away. But then they're saying they're like brother and sister and wind each other up. Who knows.

GoldHeart · 17-10-2023, 09:16 PM

I think Zak was just acting a bit like a tool , probably spent too much time around Paul.

Have people forgotten Paul is the vulgar one with a not so pretty background ??, notice how quiet he was tonight. yet he made little comments about Zak.

oh FFS both Paul & Tom are getting to the final by being dull as dishwater

. Neither have contributed anything worthwhile ... apart from talking crap tonight.
