The A level comment wasn't insulting or anything? It was just a joke. You sometimes overly defend him

And you don't have to be likeable to be liked, there are housemates with very unlikeable personalities yet I still like them as a HM.

It was insulting. But again like I said, i'm not here to insult people just for productive discourse. Anyone who needs to insult people to get their point across, isn't able to articulate their point well enough.

How is "A-Level Sociology" insulting? Just curious...

To me it sounded like saying my post was of an a-level standard like the fundamentals of discourse of race, gender etc.

As a liberal feminist who reads about these issues on a daily basis it came across as though he was insulting my intelligence.

She wasn't terrible though, in hindsight I don't dislike her (though I did at times during the series), and she's a saint compared to some of the horrors we've had. But yeah, I never got on board with the Tahan support.

A Levels are hard tho and you need to be intelligent to do well in them so I don't see how it's insulting

Meh I don't wanna start another big ass debate but the only reason the majority of my faves are black females is because I find the "sassy/funny/argumentative" character entertaining, and TV producers always cast stereotypical black girls who fulfill that role.

When it comes to relating to other housemates/contestants, then yeah, I find it easier to relate to black/mixed people for obvious reasons but doesn't mean I will favour them because of that alone. They have to be entrtaining for me to like them.

I wasn't, but take from my comment as you will.

And Like Hayden said I don't see how it was insulting as A-Levels are a prestigious qualification and require skill and intelligence. If I was comparing your post to an A-Level standard (which I was not) I'd take it as a compliment, I don't see why or how it's insulting someone's intelligence.

Also you make it sound like that response was to your whole post. I only replied to a section of your post which is why I cut out most of it.

I approve these. The other one i don´t know/remember (majority) or don´t like. Vanessa is there because she did a lot of stuff, so despite me being unable to stomach her, she is there.

Yes! Couldn't have explained it better myself. And great point about stereotype casting, so you can almost expect personality traits out of housemates because of that.

Maybe you should stop trying to make Janelle hate happen cause it's never going to happen anyways?
