Just an undercurrent?

There are a few reasons to pick a bone with Zelah. For one, we live in an individualist culture. Thus, not everyone will appreciate having their morals and ideas being dictated by other random individuals. If we talk about cultural shifts, that's one of the likeliest traits we will keep holding onto. So for many, yes, transgenderism is an annoyance because behind that has existed a strong pressing attitude of "we must do"...

Secondly, it doesn't necessarily matter how "nice" a person goes about it. Some think that just by checking certain boxes (personality-wise) means they're owed more grace than average when they're offended. However, if that person is running against the grain of someone else's individuality, they eventually will see some isolation as there are more than enough people who simply prefer to be left alone.

Some of the harsher commentary regarding Zelah/Feylike sounds closer to "communal narcissism", which is a common complaint of the Left. I don't have that same reaction to them like I have had with other HMs in the past who operated in that vein, but I certainly understand the criticism....

Yes that’s that all fine but when certain members were still calling him a she, the admin of this forum had to make a pinned post about that.

Onto Zelah himself, I liked him but he’s slipping away from my top three into the top 7

- He seems intelligent

- He also appears to be quite good at interacting with most of the other Housemates

- He likes to keep himself physically fit, which I respect.

However I don't necessarily find him interesting, and I think that he should've stuck up for himself against Sam over the fact that he (Zelah) took Jenny's side in the argument.

Ditto from me, I've seen nothing negative he's done.

However it seems being nice or more calmer are NOT what some people value in people now.
They'd rather unfortunately see disruptive people who set out to cause arguments and division.

The housemates can only do so much in the house and with the lack of more involved and longer running tasks set by BB, unless the conversations don't lead to some conflict, then there's less interest.

Speaking for myself, I prefer to learn much more about the housemates of their lives and particular events in their lives.
Being nice is good in my eyes, being divisive and argumentative not so good.

Entertainment shouldn't have to just be about who can talk or shout the loudest, be the wildest, cause and create even false conflicts or romances and showmances either.

He's a bit boring, humourless, smug, borders on arrogant. He seems like he'd be a good friend though, and have your corner.

I neither like nor dislike him, I don't want him to stay over the more interesting HMs.

Welcome and agreed....

The most interesting thing about him is that he has spent the first 23 years of his life as a woman and boy do we know about it....he doesn't appear to have any sense of humour or witty turn of phrase, would be a travesty if he won

Some people have indicated that Elsa shouldn't have passed the psych test, is there a phobia for that?
