It's alright for us to sit here and go 'well that's not a very fair accusation', but we're not the ones that have had to face a decade of such prejudice...it's understandable that if someone made her feel like they didn't like her she may put it down to that because that's the general reason that people have probably given her in the past.
Having said that, I would also say that if you're part of a minority that experiences discrimination in society, you would have a pretty good gauge of when people dislike you or are uncomfortable around you because you're part of that minority.

Most people are perfectly aware of what she has been through Jack, but it's wrong to automatically assume that because someone dislikes her they are transphobic and to accuse them of it on tv is unfair imo.
I'm not sure about Rons reasons for wanting to nominate her, no one but him knows what they truly are but I find it a bit odd that Lauren never mentioned anything at all like that about him until he mentioned putting her up for eviction.
Most of the housemates are moaning about Lauren on LF atm that probably means she's not the easiest person to live with.
