[B]Also just to break this illusion, bigger is not always better, clearly you haven't mastered great sex if you think size means everything.

It could make some of us feel inadequate i suppose but if it did that would be an issue of self esteem and not one of negative descrimination

And i know size is not everything but i can't see a downside to it though.

I am still trying to figure out.
what did she do. people lost there minds. i followed the bandwagon saying she
was prejudiced then i watched it. what did she actually say that was soooo
offensive

[Cromwell1900]

She took the piss out of Shilpa Shetty's accent and Name as she was from India it was viewed as Racist. i think the words she used were "Shilpa popadom or whatever her name is"

I don't think it was particularly racist but it was mild bullying behaviour though

Basically this. Jade had been built up so much since her first time in the house, she had to come crashing down. Once the media saw what they could do they were delighted. Bullying? Yes. Racist? Not in a million

[shella]

this is just my opinion
in no way was jay's comment racist. he was trying to get Maisy to kiss Anton YUK. it was just a joke, as for the wheel chair part of it, come on please get a grip keep it in the context of the joke. Aaron did over react but remember he sated that he had not watched the movie so i understand how he could have tken it the wrong way. but i felt sooo sorry for jay.
He was asking Aaron if he would have found that comment offensive and Arron did that would have crushed me.

i still do not know what jade said or did for people to react the way they did?
In no way was Jade racist.
1 they were having a flaming row
2 Jade got so angry that she couldn't get shilpa's name out
3 it was the other two that should have been thrown out for what they were saying behind shilpa's back which jade had nothing to do with

[camertone]

some films can be quite racist too! it was stupid of him to use racist language from a film. maybe it exposes his true mentality on race as he felt at ease to use such racist language.

I've heard it all now. Jade was racist scum, an the fact she died prematurely and tragically doesn't change that. She knew exactly what she was saying to Shilpa. Funny how her anger forced out "poppadom," rather than completely tongue-tying her. People shouldn't ever get a free pass for being racists.

Exactly, I couldn't go up to a group of black guys, and say " hey, my N, how is a brother?" And then say I'm just quoting Chris Rock, or Dr. Dre.

We have a shameful history of slavery and racism in this country, and many people alive today have been victims of racially motivated violence/assaults.

I wouldn't go to the local synagogue, and start quoting Mein Kampf. Chill out Jews, I'm just quoting a book.

I don't think Jay was intentionally being racist, but you don't get a free pass.

[fruit_cake]

not sure why it's racist really, it's seems almost like just mentioning the word 'black' is now considered racist.

[AusFan]

You've got to be kidding, I can't believe that one line was turned into such a big deal.

Anyone who was offended by that better never watch any episode of Family Guy or South Park. Fair enough if BB was some family show but I can't see how that joke was so distasteful when you had Rebeckha talking about urinating on someone in the first episode.

Besides that joke would be considered as a compliment to most.

I remember a girl got a warning in BB Australia for a racist joke that was actually offensive.

Also my opinion of Aaron has fallen after tonight's ''performance'' , he really is truly playing the game he said on opening night he would. Playing the game is fine but not at the expense of someone's reputation (Jay, yes I know his rep isn't great to begin with but still).

I do yeah.

I also like jokes about homosexuals, indians, trannies, the polish and the elderly.

Doesnt mean i hate them or am racist against them just that im not uptight and take things with a pinch of salt.

I would hate to be PC, constatntly getting offended by others remarks and having to watch what i say.

Jay has a mixed race family and associates with black men/women Infact im pretty sure hes slept with that black chick off BBBOTS and its common knowledge alot of them do have big fat donkey cocks that are well capable of hindering someones ability to walk afterwards.

I don't think it was intentionally racist but it is arguable as to whether that makes a difference........I hadn't actually heard him say it until BB quoted it in the diary room....I think they also new the context in which he said it, so was just a gentle reminder which they had to make otherwise they would have been criticised for not doing it......Aaron's reaction seemed to be connected to his wife and also just feeling down in general that day...it's right that BB does point these things out to H.M's, they may not be meant as offensive but that doesn't mean they don't offend.....it was stupid to say it

[Raven]

Overly PC bull****, This isn't the American bible belt, We are supposed to have a sense of humour. It was a film quote FFS! Even if it was from a really crap film... by all means rip the piss out of him for having crap taste in movies but there was absolutely no call for all this pathetic drama.

As for aaron's reaction.... playing it up for sympathy is actualy more offensive IMO. Yet more game playing from the most pathetic and two-faced manipulative creep in there!

I think it was for two things, neither of them actually to do with BB being bothered with 'racism'.

1. They wanted to show jay getting in 'trouble' following him ****ting in that freezer and it not being addressed at all (despite that being far more offensive and gainst BB rules then saying what he said).

2. They wanted to show that confusing footage of Aaron in the DR after very badly.

Ofc it also starts threads like this which gain sympathy for Jay.

I think it'sobvious that the BB team have decided that the Jay/Lou 'story' will carry them for the next couple of weeks and everything we see over the next few days will chosen to be to that end.

I am really now thinking it was just a ploy by Ch5 to get Jay the sympathy vote and get the public on his side

Well, there's obviously alot they're hiding about him, since 2 of the 4 HMs that came out started to say stuff about him and were immediately hushed. Somethings rotten in Denmark me thinks

[fruit_cake]

Maybe channel five want a racist issue, it might boost viewers, I'm cooling on Jay a bit

Its pathetic the sad thing is nobody thinks it was racist but there are some real strange people that place supporting their housemate of choice above telling the truth about what they think.
There are a lot of silly people willing to pretend they are offended just to try and protect their own favourite housemate its pretty retarded and quite disgusting really.
