Bang out of order. You might have a difference of opinion but that was uncalled for. I'm no fan of Deana's either, by any stretch but Jords has never been offensive to anyone like you just have. Wind your neck in a bit eh?

'Let's give Marcus a formal warning for mocking Sree's accent - but it's perfectly fine for Sree to mock every other housemate's accent.'

Big Brother have been doing it since that ******ing bint Jade ruined the show in 2007, all they do now is find little things to pick up on and make a big issue out of and all it does is making the producers look racist, for even making a difference.

Why are people outraged when racism is pointed out to a racist and stereotyping to bullies?
Taking responsibility for your actions is an adult activity

simple denial: deny the reality of the unpleasant fact altogether
minimisation: admit the fact but deny its seriousness (a combination of denial and rationalization)
projection: admit both the fact and seriousness but deny responsibility by blaming somebody or something else.

[Jords]

I think at the end of the day people know Scott and Ash wernt being racist. The warning was fair and leave it at that?

WTF, did you swallow a dictionary or are you a trick cyclist. This is a bb forum not a semina on all things that effect the running of the free world.

....horrified, uncomfortable, shocked, disappointed at what a real-life 'Big Brother' full of fearful PC little brothers and sisters all reporting each other for their contrived 'thinkspeak' laws.
People getting arrested for 'tweeting' really means things. Ugh.

I have to ask, if they were not being racist, what was the warning issued for?

And agree again! (Chuff, it was the attack on another forum member I didn't agree with, no need to get personal with posters on here).

2 reasons I believe

1) Possible chance of offending Indian viewers by being stereotypical
2) Verbally singling out Deana - the comments were made to be insulting

I thought Ashleigh's comment 'Wanid to giv her a ****ing spoon' to be very ignorant.

I thought Ashleigh's comment 'Wanid to giv her a ****ing spoon' to be very ignorant.

But does Ashleigh actually grasp British culture, let alone anyone else's? Personally I don't think for a moment she does.

Example: I used to work with adults with learning disabilities, each week we used to take a group for sewing classes at an elderly centre. The 'golden oldies' used to segregate themselves from the one's with LD's, even making them line up after they had queued for food! One day, an elderly lady approached us, it wasn't that she was being against anyone with disabilities, she just didn't understand through lack of education, blame a generation or whatever. The elderly lady became good friends with the people I looked after and genuinely cared for each and every one, and involved her friends. It was just something she'd not known about when she grew up.

Ashleigh isn't far off the mark either from my example. Should her parent's have educated her more with regard to social skills, oh yes! I grew up in a tiny mining village, where 99.9% were white folks. My children were taught to respect life, not the colour of skin. IMO, it's all about education in socialisation, first and foremost. But it cuts both ways.

Obviously that statement is stereotyping in itself. Japanese people, for example, would never eat with their hands. I think it's too general to say 'asians' when you're talking primarily about south-eastern asians, notably, Indians.

I completely agree with what you just said Bev, and I think that explains her ignorance because she doesnt have a clue about much.

I dont think they meant anything too malicious in what they said, but in a way BB is teaching them things

Like a good old classic from the 60,s his record is always good to listen to. When the day comes that our views of Deana are accepted as OUR OPINIONS AND VIEWS that will be the day the posts will be looked upon as opinionated and not nasty. Just because you love her and cant hear bad about her dosent necessarily mean you are right and we are wrong.

Yeah way too consciencous about Indians If you ask me though, I'd actually like to see Japanese, chinese, korean or somewhere like that Asians in the house versus an Indian person every two years or so. Nothing against Indians, but I do feel like BB don't represent other forms of Asia much; the only example I can think of is Lisa from BB7 who was of Chinese decent.

Where the hell do you think China is ?
The very fact that you refer to 'Asians' and 'Chinese' as two different races comes across as very ignorant to me!

I think it is really sad that you dont understand what I mean. In future I will consult my world Atlas and all manner of books, PC correct anuals and I will phone a friend before posting. That way you wont need to cherry pick my futile little posts so you can poke fun at them.

A man with a white stick and a big fluffy dog could understand that post. Oh bloody hell shes going to call in the royal soc for the blind now. When will I learn.
