.. she wasnt defending anyone (herself) , she was wlays the aggressor always the attacker. PERSON WHO BULLIES IN GROUPS TOO, be interesting to see how school mates who arent in her little group were treated by her in school...a horror of a human being.

A bully is someone who repeatedly targets someone whom they perceive as weaker. Someone defending themself against criticism is not being a bully.

Dappy criticised Luisa over something she had said. His comments were sexist and hypocritical, and she pointed this out. Dappy became hectoring and obnoxious. Dappy has a criminal record for harrassing/bullying a woman who criticised him.

Lionel entered into the naughty room fun. Afterwards he turned on Luisa, blaming her for everything. Luisa defended herself. Neither was bullying.

Luisa "took the piss" from Ollie, and if the situation had been reversed, she'd have laughed and joined in. She first explained, then apologised sincerely when Ollie remained upset. This is not bullying.

Luisa / Jim both criticised each other during the nominations, which was part of the game. Luisa got irritated with Jim when she was cooking, because he was being interfering, controlling and perfectionistic. Luisa lectured Jim after his "Martyr Jim" performance because he slept on the floor, etc. Jim is bigger, stronger and tougher than Luisa, and she acknowledged it in saying that Linda protected her from Jim.

A typical bully would target someone vulnerable like Casey, but Luisa was supportive and sympathetic to Casey and told Lee "You can't treat people like that."
