So it is a perfectly legitimate matter for discussion.

Discussion,yea thats fine.What I,m talking about small mindedness and bigotry,from people in general.I admit I dont understand why anyone would want to change their gender,because I have never felt that way,but what another person does,has no bearing on my life whatsoever. Just because I do not understand,wouldnt give me any rights to be insultive etc.This friend of mine has had to put up with the most horrendous prejudice.People calling her a freak,while putting dog**** through her letterbox,(like that is any kind of normal behaviour).I just find it strange that people get so worked up about things that really make no difference to their own lives.People fear and mock what they dont understand.

only reason she got in the first time she won BB. Which i think is wrong. SHouldn't pick people like that so it "Looks good" for channel 4 and BB. It's like sending Steve in. They must have known he'd be boring but it looks good for the channel. absolute ****e if you ask me!

She looks lovely and I'm wondering if she still showers in her stilettos!

[LexDex]

Nadia looks amazing! Ok she put on a little weight after her Latino Dance Workout video all those years ago, but that's alright! Still beautiful and how I love the laughter!!!
She's a Lady!

I think she looks a lot more feminine this time round. Her hair suits her A LOT more now as well, whereas before I think it kind of contributed to make her look more masculine.

[stonedape]

Everyone already said this crap 6 years ago. Fat, Manly, It's like taking a step back in time.

[farhad]

I was thinking about this earlier that her face looks manly. Why do people do wierd things like change their sexuality.

she looks like a scrum half,or port barrel carrier!!

If I met Nadia I would be perfectly polite and, unless she brought it up herself, would not even mention the transgender issue.

But as she was put in because of this issue it is , as I have said, quite legitimate to discuss it on a BB enthusiasts forum. Including whether people have such operations in an attempt to address issues which (arguably) could be addressed by counselling or other means short of mutilating their bodies.

Well said. And I'm surprised the Mods are letting all these comments slip...

The way she walks Ive to laugh.

[aliacid]

As much as I love Nadia, I have to agree, she does look more masculine this time around. Its her face more than anything. Her weight gain hasn't helped her femininity either, as someone mentioned earlier, she has a beer-belly.

ugly, annoying and way to big headed after she won BB. Needs bringing down a peg or 2
