Totally agree.

Certainly Callum, who was so meek when talking to Gina in the bedroom.

What a horrible thing to say

I'm not convinced Dan is truly the Alpha male of the house yet. I guess he has it now, but to be fair, nobody else has really challenged him. It'll be interesting to see what happens when he gets really called at some point. He's pretty good at criticizing others but will he be able to take it when someone really has a go at him? We saw last night that he can't even handle getting a simple nomination without playing the victim card and then pressing for what he deems a 'valid' reason. Then when he gets a reason he runs to Gina for validation.

Are all these "bad things" really so bad? He's no worse than Wolfy or Gina when in an argument. And if he's a bitch then good stuff

[alex_front2]

I think people are surprised by how alpha dan is because he's camp and the other straight men are so weak. Daley has admitted he's no leader, Sam is a cowering wreck who hid under the duvet whenever Jemima tried to expand his winkie and Calum is an obsequious weed who would compliment you if you punched him in the jaw. Dexter likes to wear stockings for men on web cam. Nuff said. Yes Dan is camp (but not rylan or bb2 brian levels of camp) but authoratative, domineering and has a strange masculinity despite being slightly mincey.

Part of being an alpha male is commanding respect. Do you think the housemates actually respect Dan? Or do they just let him do as he pleases because they don't want to get on his bad side and be bitched about, or interrogated?

Yep, Hazel, Sophie, Daley, Jackie, Charlie, Sam, Gina, and Dexter (said he found Dan charismatic and attractive) have all at one point or another complimented Dan. Daley even admitted in DR that Dan was the leader and uttered some crap that he himself leads from the back.

Only Joe and Callum have major Dan issues, Jack I think has a crush but knows Hazel has MORE chance of sleeping with him.

Dan has an issue with fakeness, he can smell it, and he hasn't been wrong yet.

Hope Dan stays in this week, he deserves it.

I think it's hilarious on twitter all the people saying 'dan is hot, but i hate him' lol

Being complimented ≠ Respect though

Sam actually told Dan that he respected him post-nominations.

Jackie sees Dan as the only other 'adult' in the house when she shared with him that she sees the others as school kids including charlie.

Its hard to figure this kind of stuff out only seeing the show and not actually being in the house. To me Dan is the one who acts like a little school girl, always gossiping, over analyzing the littlest details, unable to take criticism. It's entirely possible though that those in the house might see him differently though.

Most of us loathe Wolfy, she's probably one of the most popular in the house, reverse this for Gina.

Even Jackie speaks to Dan with more respect than she does to Charlie. Sophie has gone to Dan for advice and Hazel spent the first 2 weeks conferring with Dan.

The only people who didn't respect Dan at all are Joe, Wolfy and Jemima.
