There is a clip of housemates speaking about the pass to the finals and in it Sam says he wants to be a role model for kiddies and to showcase his hearing problem etc.
As honorable as that is ( and it is ) do you think that swearing and sexism from Sam on national TV will affect those kiddies watching. Will parents support this behaviour and encourage their children to look up to Sam and emulate him or will they be repulsed?

I was shocked by his foul mouth from the start, that is no role model for my kids, deaf or not. He then went on to his ignorant sexism his childish unfunny jokes, so yes I am repulsed by him. He would however be a good role model for a sleeping dummy in a bed shop.

He has made some boyish comments that are immature and if he wants to be a role model he should curb that.


There's another person in the house who is quite clearly sexist and chauvinistic too but let's not say anything about that sweep sweep.

Indeed. My mum was 23 when I was born and she'd been married 3 years by then!

Sam doesn't even know the alphabet. Great role model!

Stand by for the usual comments, Knowing the alphabet is unimportant, knowing grammar is unimportant, knowing how to spell is unimportant, so long as you can send text messages your life is in order.

role .model . Winkie Expanding, Rude comments to females.

Good Lord how many men do you know stop making girlie comments suddenly at 23!!!! they never stop ffs,and I'll bet some of the holier than thou people have made plenty of comments about girls/guys,I know I do sometimes it's human nature take a good look around this forum,then you'll see sexist remarks,this is getting silly now and a stupid thing to trash him for.

[rusticgal]

I cannot believe he is 23!!!.... and he is still talking about his 'winkie expanding'. He is however a lovely boy but he does not deserve to win. People will vote out of sympathy because had he not had a hearing problem he will be one of of the first out on the final night.

I respect what must be difficult for him compared to someone like me who can hear but I like him in the show for other reasons.

Why?

He will have to try harder in life, put up with people patronising him etc.
But I doubt very much he will want or appreciate your pity.

[Verbal]

Time to log off before I self implode...again, on this thread. Some people's ignorance is just unreal. Goodnight.

You make a good point but it falls flat when the person you are talking about raises his hearing difficulties on national tv himself to gain a pass to the finals.

Bringing his disability again , gosh

YES I hear you loud and clearly Sam.

[smeagol]

not bothered about his language really etc. i just cant stand do gooders. if he said that then its purely for votes which i find to be just wrong. sympathy vote again. totally unfair to the rest and he should no know that and feel guilty about it.
its yet again someone benefiting from pretending to do good. if you want to do good do it quietly, no one needs a role model its utter bull. he is on for ego fame girls and money thats the truth of the matter. not any role model.

if you wanted to be a role model sam go on bb be yourself and dont go on about it. just get on with it. thats a role model not someone saying they are
