..this is a good point as well jaxie..she also said how uncomfortable and invading that made her feel...BB are capable of making 'wrong' calls also but that would also not really call 'hypocrisy' so much as a looking back maybe and a learning curve..two 'wrongs' would just be doubling their wrongs, rather than being hypocritical...a right would always be an admission and not continuing of a wrong for consistency...

Again, great rational thinking, we're on the same wavelength

And if the 'aggressor' is a woman?

Women tend to get free passes. Especially if they are particularly useful for a storyline.

Does that make it right?

Hell no, it should be equality for all in reward and punishment. Double standards have no place in a modern world

They get free passes because they are the physically weaker sex and not at all threatening.

I hope that was a joke

In my view if a woman did that to another person she would deserve to be ejected as well.

[Kizzy]

She was at least warned, Biancca wasn't.

You might want to pop me on it too because I agree with everything he says.

Tbf if it was a woman, it would probably be turned on her due to the male favouritism of the public.

VERY good point, and agree

[wendywillow]

Joel pushed the point with BB and forced their hand. if he had said it was no big deal they might haven't have ejected him.

similar to an old real world when tammy was exposed by dave when he pulled her blanket off while she was nude. she was laughing screaming 'no' but he kept going. I think he got kicked out.

If Danny did the exact same thing as Aaron then I would defend him.

I'm not a hypocrite like that, I stand by my views no matter who it is.

I can't speak for other people though.

I dont think a man would do that to a woman't be funny to anyone - I do not know why but the whole house was giggling including the lads and the girls, it was clearly a joke that went to far, BB let it go on too long, they could have call Aaron to the diary room sooner and stopped him - they let him unknowingly continue to do whatever it is he did wrong - why didnt they call him to the diary room when they thought it was too much?0 Aaron needed a warning nothing more. Every body is being hysterical. Its not the outside world. In the outside world if it was mates all staying over and that happened eventually Joel would leave the house or lamp Aaron. Over reaction. Im female if a man thats a mate was doing that to me I wouldnt want him evicted, but I would shout at him to stop and shout at BB to tell him to stop

Obviously it was making Joel uncomfortable, but it was a bit of drunken fun, that could have been ended with a warning from BB

This is a blatant publicity stunt to drum up interest in the show. And it just makes the whole thing look even more ridiculous.

This show is an utter joke

Im shocked that you think Aaron was in his rights to do what he did ,any lesser man and Aaron would have been picking himself up off the floor and both parties would have been removed ,Joel handled it amazingly ,BB were right to remove him, Harriet should have been warned for her part too

[Maxy]

While I don't agree with what Aaron did, Joel was giving him mixed messages by telling him to stop what he was doing but smiling at the same time and why did BB let it go on for so long.

Alot of people laugh or smile when they're nervous, he looked pretty uncomfortable with it all to me, regardless of whether he was smiling or not. But yeah BB should have intervened way sooner
