Arron and Conor have scorn thrown at them because they are nasty, thoughtless bullies. They do not represent the entire straight male demographic of the uk, neither does the public's hatred (? or not- apparently they have some large fan bases for some inexplicable reason) for them represent some kind of widespread cultural misandry.

I judge people by their personal attributes whatever sex they are. I thought Benedict was fab, because he was a nice guy.

I think the majority of women love straight men... but don't like whiners.

Im a straight guy and i've got to say this is some of the weirdest **** i've ever read, straight guys get it way easier on BB than women do, admittedly I agree with you that gay guys get it easier on BB than any other sexuality like Mario BB11 took until he was sitting on guys laps naked for the public to realise that he was a bit creepy to say the least.

[thesheriff443]

its swings and roundabouts

[fruit_cake]

Wasn't this the same poster who was saying Benedict and Chris didn't count as proper straight man? He(She) seems to pick and choose the men at will to suit his(her) arguments frankly.

[Mystic Mock]

Crimson Chris was awesome, shame on you OP lol.

[JTM45]

Yeah, it was like a bloody loony bin in here in the early hours of this morning!
Some of the most ridiculous threads i've ever seen posted on a BB forum ever.

So it's not actually about straight men at all, it's about a certain type of straight man? hardly sexist at all then tbh

Just Sayin'

You are just saying that there is a highly disproportionate number of 'LGBT' winners.
A group making up between 1-3% of the general population is walking away with something like 20% of the top prizes?

I could give a random difference on the heterosexual men/women ration since its a difference of just 1

*If we just look at LGBT Males to heterosexual males then we have an even greater disproportion with the LGBT basically winning something like 10 X more often than their hetero counterparts.
What's up with that?

Specifically, the Arron type, or occasionally the Conor type when it's convenient to the argument.

Nothing at all is up with that, you simply have a problem with it...

You are going to need to start replying to my posts with some kind of coherent response, introduce a new idea, speak to something relevant to the topic or make a what we call a:
meaningful statement.

Also, do you think this --> means something to me, to you or to anyone else?

It was perfectly coherent... The of course means you are boring me with your usual bigotry...

So, they voluntarily put themselves in the spotlight wide open for criticism and praise and as you determine them 'asking for it' or 'not innocent' (a little guilty).

So my point stands.
Meanwhile, be careful what really mean thoughts you write down on this forum - someone may have police come to your door and physically arrest you, charge you with an actual criminal offense.
For saying 'mean things' about public figures.

I've heard cases of Twitter arrests for things like racism, death threats and revealing rape victims names but for saying mean things?

Do you have any links to that?

there will never be an alpha male winner again, theres no point them even being there, just get women and gay people and let them carry on....I just watched this week a supposedly serious political show, some failed stockbroker (female) in her mid 20s has just sold a book made a few millions (sold to the majority of women buyers) stating that the credit crash like all the wars is all the fault of men....she fails to notice theres way more women in banking in services and in newspaper rooms than ever before , so too the police and parliament and has corruption dropped? nah...its greed its self interest its lack of morals lack of integrity, the vast majority of female mps voted for the iraq war...blaming men for all the worlds ills is the most hateful simplistic drivel that i destroying big brother, families, and society itself.

I pity the radical people who follow radical agendas whether its radical religious zealots or radical feminists, their so full of hate and bile and its all based on such a perverted understanding of history and the world,,,its sad to see big brother go down the toilet the same way

Aaron? Paddy?

maybe when we've had 90 series we can even out that 'injustice', babe

[Vicky.]

Im sure the 1-3% proportion of uk residents being gay/bi/trans/whatever, isnt right. Thats like 1/33 or something. I swear at least 1/10 people I know are gay or bi. Granted I know no transgender people though

The fact is that women have come a long way in the last 20 years and realize that we have a right to voice our opinion. We dont have to bow our heads and let the white straight men take charge. Many women come from broken families with abusive male figures, some have experienced abuse first hand and as we become adults we know what we dont want and in todays society we are free to express ourselves. This means that we are gonna make it clear that abuse or anything we consider negative in any way shape or form is not to be tolerated, even on a gameshow because it sets a bad example for the young people watching.

Rinky, you should not look at it as an attack on straight men; it is in reality an attack against men with negative characteristics. We want good men to raise our families with, men that set good examples and in some form it is the new natural selection, you all know that the woman is the one that chooses, what has changed today is what we are willing to accept.

In the past women had to stay in toxic relationships, we don't have to anylonger, women also looked for alpha men as it was a sign of ambition and that of a good provider, this isnt the case anymore.. things have canged alot and men have also improved alot to be honest. When I compare men today with my dads generation, they are completely different and more evolved.

Just keep evolving and you will have no problems at all.

I do not want to start a debate but it is a very misandrist culture today, also the so called positive discrimination to give jobs to women and not based on actual best candidate, or He probably deserved it that we ear as an automatic, or BTW according to statistics as many kids witness violence against their father in the house as they do against their mother, and not just in the UK but Canada, USA, Australia as well.

So the whole violence thing is a Myth in a sense that it does exist for women but for men just as well, and do not say that only men attack men, it is not true, the worst type of offenders in domestic violence are women against women, then Women against men, because men are afraid of defending themselves by fear of being arrested and women do not fear that since they wont be, than Women against children, than in lesser number Men against women and men and children.

Women in western society have a sense of entitlement and know that most of the time, the vast majority will side with them saying " he deserved it" even if they have no clue as to what happened.

A good example that went flying by yesterday, was Arron was mad at Becky for the way she acted towards him when she talked about him, but mostly the way she acted in the Scott speech, she was very vindictive and nasty, laughing and adding to the insults, Arron was right behind her and saw and heard everything, he was fuming.

When he exploded in the diary room, he did mention that fact that she had been nasty to him and he had the right to give it back, Becky just brushed it off by being her, then he fingered her.

Later in the Bedroom he said the same thing, but she was not listening to him, she was being too loud.

Meanwhile what the audience, the bbots panelist and it seems a lot of people here seems to only focus on is, what he said but excluding and voiding all the reasons why, and that is because men's opinion is not relevant to society, A guy as to be a gentleman all the time to a woman, even if she had been extremely nasty to him, and he is by default always guilty no mater what he said r not, and women are NEVER responsible for any of their behavior, it is de facto accepted that a girl can throw a mug at a guys face (Deana in the bedroom, after Arron and spayed her with a little water, watch the video, and you can see it flying by and hear it hit the floor too) or hit him and get away with it. But if a guy says anything back at her right after an argument, he is in the wrong.

just a thought, for some reflection, I understand that women will not see that since it does not affect them at all and they simply do not care. But take a step back, at work, on TV, or just around you, and observe how people react, hence just watch last night show and the ones before and see it with that in mind.

Luke S has done nothing to Luke A, but Luke a does not give him any chance, according to the public, he is right, does anyone think that maybe it would be also his fault for not even ever talking to Luke S and saying that he wants to do the shopping, why is it only Luke S''s responsibility, and never anyone else.

Also, why is it Luke S stringing along or being fake to Ashleigh and not the other way around, when as the public we know she had second thoughts, but it was never shown he had any second thoughts, the same why is Dena accusing Luke S but not Ashleigh, when she even think she wants or has a flirt with Connor in the bathroom?

The reason she is a girl, then she hold the truth no matter what, Luke S is a fit guy, so he is automatically nasty, playing a game, plotting and being dishonest.

Anyway, just a reflection.
