Maybe the reason for people on BOTS calling the straight housemates this year vain is because all of the straight males this series bar Adam, Benedict and Luke A have been cocky pricks?

I feel sorry for Becky and Scott, some of the things people say about them are horrid.

Twitter is awful for stuff like that though, I deleted my account because I got death threats because I like Paris Hilton.

Did you miss where I said I deleted my account? I believe nobody should be abused and threatened, and being behind a computer screen is no excuse. It's cowardly.

Can you please give it up? No one is disputing that the abuse dealt to Adam and Becky about their weight (I would dispute your theory of a so-called "anti-heterosexual male bias" because honestly it's not about their gender or their sexuality - Conor and Arron are just pricks.) But this thread is ABOUT the anti-gay bashing that's been done with regards to Scott on Twitter, so that's what's being discussed. Just because we're talking about that here doesn't mean the other stuff isn't wrong too. Sheesh. Grow up.

Perhaps if BB stopped going for the same neanderthal metrosexual 'lads' we wouldn't be having this debate

That's the problem. To be fair, Adam and Benedict seem like fairly positive representations of the heterosexual male (if you can get past the porn and the criminality) but the rest of them are just awful; so dim and self-obsessed and stupid and vain and did I mention thick?

[Marc]

Some people are just retarded.

[rinkydinkpanther]

how many wheelchairs have got in the BB house in 13 years? how many anti male sexist comments in the past 13 years? how many abusive comments? yet the only time it gets any attention is it anything bad is said against a gay person or a woman...why are their feelings more important than a mans or a disabled persons? bbbots is a male bashing nucnh of hypocrits....lauren says all young men are liars, thats just the tip of the iceberg....ive heard far worse poison aimed at hetro men throughout big brother and across mainstream tv...sharon osbourne had guests on a few yrs back laughing for 20 minutes about the guy who has his c*ock cut off...hilarious....she even said more women should go it,,,hilarious....the so called gay movement or feminist movement or so called equalities movement works both ways, if you want to get offended about whats said to a member of your group i.e. women or gay people , then you need to get equally offended when something nasty or misandrist is said to a hetro man, or a Christian or the fact no wheelchairs have made the house in 13 yars....otherwise youre nothing but intolerant hypocritical liberals

[Donovan.]

I'm pretty sure that it's like against the rules of life to tell somebody how and when to get offended. And there haven't been wheelchairs in the Big Brother house, because they wouldn't be able to get up the stairs.

gOD WHAT A STUPID REPLY....EVER HEARD OF RAMPS?

[Donovan.]

I hope you understood that that whole reply was a joke starting with the unnecessary use of the word "like" it was supposed to sound stupid. Of course they could put a ramp in, but they have stairs right now and I was making an observation that everybody has already made. That observation being that there are stairs and not a ramp like you have suggested that they could use.

I disagree. Housemates should be picked on personality, not anything else. I dont think its discrimination at all that in 13 years of auditions, the producers havent found someone with a personality they like for the house who happens to be in a wheelchair...I wouldnt think many people in wheelchairs apply anyway. I just dont think its right to put someone in the house solely because they are disabled. If they DID pick someone just to have someone in a wheelchair and nothing else, it would still be discrimination anyway, only positive discrimination.

still no wheelchair ACCESS...THAT IS ILLEGAL AND BLATANT DISCRIMINATION...no one asked about putting people in just because theyre in wheelchairs, why would you jump to such a ridiculous conclusion....the access has never been there so clearly these people would be less inclined to apply...the fact the access has never been there is a complete disgrace and parliament should get involved....

There is no wheelchair access...BECAUSE there are no disabled housemates, not the other way round. It would be very easy to make the house wheelchair accessable if there was going to be a housemate that needed it. Infact didnt steve come out of a different exit when he got evicted? I dont remember if he went into a different place when he entered or not though...so clearly there is a way for disabled HMs to enter the house. Yeah, he wasnt in a wheelchair, but he had problems with stairs because of his leg, and that got sorted :S

I agree, also they have had disabled people in there, Steve from BB11 for example and Mikey from BB9, and Verne from CBB used a mobility scooter in the house

[Donovan.]

I'm not angry because I myself am not in a wheelchair, but if I was I'm sure I would be a bit peeved off.

neither am I but I am still peeved off on behalf of the millions who are in a wheelchair who have never had the chance to get on the show. that type of discrimination is far deeper an issue than a few idot comments on twitter.

Panther, get off your soapbox, and stop taking out your frustrations on forum members, the one you are raving at in this thread is a teenage lad fgs.

There's a forum section for serious debates and news issues on Tibb, you seem like someone who would be good in that area, you clearly hold firm views and like expressing yourself.

All you are doing atm is getting people's backs up.

I would have thought you would have the common sense to realise what "the problem with that is?"

Maybe I gave you too much credit?
