Jasmine is a women hitting a women, Jim is a man hitting a woman. (Not that I condone any violence)

His ex-wife Alison Holloway alleged that during their marriage Jim beat her regularly, kicked her down the stairs and once smashed a barbell into her ribs. He blamed her for their marriage breakdown.

Nothing is ever Jim's fault. He is never responsible for the way others perceive him. Everything they do is wrong and he is always right.
Poor Jim.

He's not playing the "poor me" card at all, he's holding his own with the men hating old bags in there.

..Jim wrote it himself in his autobiography, I won't say what he did to his wife because people can read it if they want to...

Again, that has nothing to do with THIS show and how Jim has been in THIS BB house.

Never mind about what he may or may not have done before, none of those HM's are perfect.

..I agree that none of them are 'perfect', no one is..but the difference with celebrity BB is that we do know something about the housemates before they enter the house..or at least some of them and we all do have opinions about the type of people they are...it's been no different from any of the other housemates in that I've seen numerous posts/comments about Dappy and his online pics..comments on how Luisa was in the Apprentice, how Lee was an idiot etc and those are preconceived opinions about them before they went into the house..it's human nature and no one is exempt from it...I have often changed my opinion of someone from what they are like in the house by their interactions with others and just the general way that they are..but to do that, you have to see something that changes your opinion otherwise it stays the same...and with Jim, I haven't seen anything that would change it, so I am basing my opinion on what he's like in the house, which is someone who doesn't interest me at all....maybe that would change if he talked about himself/his past like other 'controversial' housemates have in the past...but at the moment, he's still the same unfunny person he always was....

Jim has talked about himself and his past mistakes, he's just not going into detail, anyway all his dirty laundry is out there for all to see, and Linda does the job for him, but telling the others her take on how awful he is.

As for other preconceived ideas about the others, Lee, Luisa and Dappy have re enforced those ideas by how they've been in the house.

if you want to support a sexist, racist homophobe, that's fine. But don't use this cop out nonsense about not seeing it on the show. We know what he's like, on this show he's deliberately reigning himself in but the real nasty Jim is there waiting to get out.

Please, evidence of that? all I've heard is female bitching and sneering at older men simply because they don't accept their bad behaviour.

Ammi, you are just making this thread for me. You too, Jet.

I don't really understand why we can't judge the HMs on their past? Like Ammi said they're all "celebrities" and I think that the whole point of CBB is that they're people that you have heard of and have opinions on and it gives them a chance to change peoples minds, unlike normal BB. I may be wrong though. I'm fairly new to BB UK.

I watched Jim on Hell's Kitchen and hated him. I learned about his personal life and I hated him more. I don't know if it's just because I'm fairly young, but I can't just put him being a horrible, disgusting person to the side so I can judge him only for how he is on this show. Honestly, I don't think he should have even been allowed on this.

I also don't really get how you can compare Jasmine punching LiLo and Sam slapping her boyfriend and some girl he was with or whatever to what sounds like Jim beating his wife on multiple occurrences.

Sorry, I don't know if it's just because I'm overly passionate in hating the things that Jim has done but I don't really understand how people can just overlook all of that and give him a clean slate.

Spot on. I'm heartily sick of the bum-licking of Jim that is going on in this Forum and the slagging off of Luisa because she has the cheek to stand up to the sexist, racist, homophobic loud-mouthed git.

Exactly. Got to love the blindness of some.
