Nobody asks for or leaves themselves open to attacks on their appearances, regardless of what they look like. If a child were being bullied and you used this excuse, it would be victim blaming.

It doesn't matter whether you don't like Isabelle's tan or the fact she wears revealing clothes, that doesn't justify anyone calling her a 'slag' or a 'slapper' or mocking her for it. Yes she has been self deprecating on several occasions and that's to her credit, but she's entitled to do that because it is her appearance. I don't like Tom that much or find him attractive, but I don't stoop to attacking him for it - I stick to talking about his character (or lack of it), because it's Big Brother and not Next Top Model.

I just think people should put themselves in someone else's shoes. If a friend or a loved one of yours went into the house, would you really like seeing them being called a 'slut' or having the way they look insulted? When it's completely irrelevant to what they're like as housemates? I don't think many people would. At the end of the day while people put themselves up to be judged on a TV show, they do so on one that is about personalities and not aesthetics. They are still human, it's just a programme we watch for 48 minutes a night, there's no excuses for such vitriol. None whatsoever.
