From what I remember of bb11 though, which is very little, Govan was a right bitch. Never understood the Ife hate though, that was dodgy

The hate of many housemates was iffy (pun intended), doesn't mean racism.

The whole country rallied around and hated Jade, Danielle and Jo for their treatment of Shilpa so it doesn't fly.

Almost 1/5 of the voting public still voted to evict Shilpa when it was the UK's final opportunity to save face and prove that they don't condone racism.

Yes because disliking a housemate must be racism. We've had this discussion before in a closed thread and resolved it in PM so I'll respectfully end that here.

I'm not opening another can of worms.

I didn't say that? My point is that considering it was a head to head between Shilpa and Jade and it was pretty much the last chance for the UK to save face in an international racism scandal. And then Shilpa still got 18% of the vote to evict. One out of five voters didn't think disproving racism was that necessary. That's alarming.

Again, I've already responded to these questions in a long debate we've had before. To save us both pointlessly repeating ourselves, I'll end it here.

Don't think there is any racist agenda at work here, merely that loud sassy black females get noticed and with VTE they tend to go early.

Hey if you're a paranoid mess I'm calling it... I don't care if you're black, white or Mark Wright.

Do you even know the voting public? I think the gravity of the situation just might have got lost on them to be honest .

It might if they were in the minority in the house?... That's not to say I thinks there's been any in this house.

Marlon is great, him and Winston are the only fun housemates in there, although they draw Ash & Mark in at times

Once Toya is gone, the guys can start having fun............at last!!

Its Big Brother's fault. Why do they choose Toya AND Pauline as housemates? Could they not have selected a lovely black girl who was beautiful inside and out and a potential winner? When it comes to female black housemates Big Brother like to choose a bitchy loudmouth type more often that not. What is the reason for this?

Tbh I used to be like this but every year a large portion of the public will hate a black contestant for almost no reason sometimes, and there is definitely something in it if Toya and Marlon directly follow Pauline out the door, how can you not be? There was only three of them in the house initially so how the **** are we looking at only one being there next week?

But in the same respect black girls are easily judged and pushed into their stereotype. Like, a poster here called Ika from BB Canada something like "ratchet Shaniqua" if a black girl speaks up she's often quickly labeled as aggressive. Someone like Marcus from BB10 is rather aggressive himself but he rarely gets called out on it.

Well Govan was another one, he was nowhere near as offensive as people like John James and Mario yet he got evicted with 72% of the vote.

Black people have to behave like “coconuts” just for the large portion of the public to tolerate them imo, it's completely out of order, but I'm also not encouraging for people to hate black people that have “white” personality traits.
