He was picked over Sue on launch night, was the original reason for the hate

He hasn't really done much to redeem himself since then tbh. I don't mind him but hes pretty much been up Lotans backside up until recently and then he has done nowt but get overly drunk (which oddly enough, seems to have redeemed him to some )

[reece(:]

He's dull and aggressive

Haven't seen any other HMs break things and threaten to smash the house up?

Must be those rose tinted glasses of yours.

Some of the other housemates have thrown stuff,and he didn't smash the house up he was just angry,like we all get.

[Nancy.]

I didn't like him when he first went in - seemed like a bit of a tit who thought far to much of himself. He seems to have calmed down a bit since then. I'm still not a fan but he's better than he was.

[Time]

He's just there, not the worst and certainly not the best.

[Withano]

Irritating, arrogant, egotistical asslicker.. yet still manages to come across boring.

A bit like that Cristian bloke thinking about it. God I hated him. Toms not quite that bad.

Probably 3/10 as a person, 1/10 as a housemate. Want him out next, worst of the ones left standing.

Homophobia before he entered and then he entered and behaved like a twat on heat

- became the People's Housemate, didn't do anything the 'people' wanted, but used them as an excuse for everything because he lacked any balls
- became involved in a horrific clique
- showed arrogance on a number of occasions
- attacked a woman for her looks, and joined in with Lotan giggling about how orange Isabelle was
- constantly attention seeks with unfunny pranks
- the way he and Joe seem to think that being a 'geezer' is an excuse for being a horrific person

I see the name calling is still rife 'sigh'

being called a knob for his actions is nothing compared to the slut shaming (which is sexism) and appearance attacks that happen on here.

We've had all this,so why don't you just say if you can why you think Tom is what you called him. BTW,I am sure you would take being called a 'knob' as an insult.

[DouglasS]

I no longer dislike him. I did at first because of how he treated Raph and talked about him and also he didn't work as the 'peoples housemate' and instead just worked on his own personal opinions rather than the publics. However recently hes been alright and he made me laugh in the diary room. I don't really dislike any of the housemates now, I think they all have flaws and good bits unlike other series

[Withano]

Name calling based on personality is so different to name calling based on looks lol. Theyre basically in a personality contest. Theres a very clear line, how is that debate still ongoing.

they are there to be judged on their personality not their looks so if they are acting like a knob etc then there's nothing wrong with calling their that.

I don't agree with judging housemates from things they have done before they entered the house, especially if we don't know the context ourselves. Everyone makes mistakes, especially when they are younger. Tom is like 21 or 22. Fair enough if you're not a fan of him in the house. People are happy to like Simone and enjoy her despite all of her past convictions and past previous racist experience yet jump on Tom. Personally Simone's past is far worse than Tom's. I'm giving Simone a fair chance though.

Great and fair post Douglas

Tom is your stereotypical lad. A bit racist and homophobic, gets too drunk, has an eflated ego, struts around with his top off. Forms little cliques to gang up on people. Without a bigger bully to guide him I'd say he's pretty harmless though.
