Yup 100% agree this is the point im trying to make. We need more diversity in general though from people of all walks of life.

I think we need a mix, more than just the odd one or 2 gay people/lesbians. I have said for years there are not enough people in the house that are gay. The majority of housemates are always straight. Would be cool to see 50/50.

That's reality though. Jim Davison did it to Brian Dowling and even though it was offensive so ****ing what it's what happens in the real world so why censor it? BB is actually a really good platform for breaking down barriers and even though it's harsh it works.

Rather than chosing on sexuality I would really like to see some older people. Not the token 1 that we get (or 2 at best). If its really representative of the UK, there should be a few 40+ people in there.

I brought this up in a previous post to we defo need older housemates. CBB has a lot of older housemates and they are almost allways the most interesting.

Probably, hope you didnt think i was being rude. Not cool to call gay men are queens. Not ok to slam people in your own community especially when we all get slammed so much by people in general.

who was the girl that changed her gender to become a man and went in the house as a tv then when he came out, it was reported he had fallen for a gay man and were living as a gay couple. why the fook didnt he ditch the pants for a dress and go back to being a woman and call themselves a husband and wife. I get really confused when a gay man lives with a person that has a vagina and has sex with him/her and he/she still wants to be recognised as a man even though he still has a vagina and his partner has a willy.

Im still not sure ive put it across right but in essence she went to a he and he went to a she and they live together but in different rolls but still have their private parts. in my head thats so hard to understand.

Sexuality is a very complicated thing....just visit pornhub.com to see that lol but each to their own I say.

Agree with this, I've always thought lesbian are extremely underrepresented.
