Which line from White Chicks was it?

I missed that and just saw Aaron have a bit of a breakdown.

He didnt get any official warning either they pretty much just said be careful with words because there are some absolute nutters out there that will feign offence just because they are a fan of another housemate and some mental cases will put that ahead of any thought for your reputation.

I bet you cant.

P.S. Aarons a prick he just threw away what little chance he had of winning tonight by trying to manipulate the viewers with his little overdramatic tantrum

Im not saying his comment was racist but Emilys wasnt meant as racist either.

Don't get me wrong, I don't agree with Emily being kicked out at all, she didn't say it in a nasty way. I think a warning to not use the word would have been sufficient. Also, with the lack of live feed things like ****ting in freezers can be hidden from us lol

In fairness, considering BB's history with racism, it's just a case of better safe than sorry really

Neither of them meant it but Emily's was racist Jays wasnt. since when was the word black a racist word?

[flamingGalah!]

It is a racist comment, if it's from a film or not... I do think BB were a bit OTT to call him up about it, but I'm sure some people would complain if they didn't...

Aaron's reaction was more to do with the wheelchair part of the comment, rather than the racist bit, as his wife was in a wheelchair for a year, so I can understand him being upset/offended by it...

[Nightshade]

WHITE CHICKS WAS JUST BRILLIANT jays a nob but the quote has been blown out of all proportion - get Aaron and Faye out

Agreed. But Channel 4 was already off the back of the racism row. Any term used would be immediate dismisal.

[Vicky.]

Ironically though, his warning was for the racist element.

And the only one to take offense to it, took offense to the disability part.

[Visage]

I thought it was OTT and kinda felt BB were trying to prove something with all this talk on the net about poo-gate. It felt like they were putting a message out there saying yes we do pull Jay up if he's out of line.

I understand the warning but Jay wasnt racist at all.

Never thought of it like that, and yes i agree if you had no understanding of the line in the Movie, i think you could be forgiven for thinking this was the meaning of the line. If you know of Jay's humour you'd probably get that there was more to it, but if you had just tuned in for the first time maybe you'd think he was being Racist!

It was a race related joke written by a black guy for a Comedy Film. Yes I did find it funny and so did many other people who are evolved enough to realise that a race related joke is different from a racist joke.

And Jay didn't know about Aaron's wife and I'm sure he had absolute no intention to upset Aaron.

[Benjamin]

I think C5 are probably just covering their backs as to not have an incident like C4, they are already struggling with viewers, the last thing they need is more negative press.

[blkbeauty71]

jay said a quote from the film white chicks.and as he said in the diary it means that black men are hung like donkeys that you could end up in a wheelchair.,and it was said by a black actor.and i would think most black people would not be offended.but because of the jade goody episode they have to seem as if they are doing something but they must learn the difference and listen to the whole conversation when something is said.now to most viewers they are gonna think jay is racist when he is not. and aaron has blown it all out he knows its from a film he is trying to look like a good guy.i am raging and its down to bb editing lets not forget.i could go on and on anyway jay to win from a strong black woman

[Supermum]

It was a comment about BLACK MEN, a very stereotypical comment suggesting that all black men have big willies. This is incorrect!! It is a racial remark (not sure i'd class it as racist as racist remarks are negative). Plus i cant see any black man being offended by it. Never the less, he shouldn't have said it because its inappropriate. I understand why BB pulled Jay up on it, they had to cover their backs. We live in a very PC world (not the computer shop, but politically correct) and if anything Jay should know better, he just confirmed he's a dumb ass!

"Once you go Black you need a Wheelchair" is the line in the Film at least.

[Niamh.]

Yeah, it's more of a compliment to black men rather than an insult, isn't it?

I don't find it offensive, or even overly racist, but suggesting that Black men have big d*cks IS racist & although having a big d*ck would probably be considered a good thing, some could still be offended...

It is a stereotype & similar to sugesting that all British people have bad teeth & that all American's are thick...

Yes but the expectation is un-barable!

That's exactly what it is not. It is positive discrimination like all British people have great accent's or all American's live in Big Houses. It's all stereotypes but because they are positive they are not offensive surely!

Yeah that's the thing, personally I think that if it was offensive to anyone it would be more likely be for it's racial element because it's stereotyping black people, I never really thought about how it could have offended wheelchair users

[flamingGalah!]

But you are assuming that all black men think having a huge cock is positive??

Is it not a good thing?

But...its untrue. I discovered a while back

I am yes, well it is a positive statement at least, is it a positive thing to have a big willie? I'm struggling to think of a downside to it
within normal extremes of course.
