What's the slur the DM are on about as originating from a Caribbean insult towards gay people? B---Y or something? (I make this sound like I'm filling in a risque crossword but I just genuinely have no idea what it is)

In Jamaican English and creole, batty boy (also batty bwoy, batty man, and chi chi bwoy/man) is a pejorative term for a gay or effeminate man. The term batiman (or battyman) is used in Belizean Creole.

In 2006, Time Magazine claimed that Jamaica was the worst place in the Americas for LGBT people and among the most homophobic places in the world.Sex between men is punishable with up to 10 years in jail.

Certain forms of Jamaican music feature hostility toward homosexuals using terms such as 'batty boy' to disparage LGBT people. One example of this is through a T.O.K. song "Chi Chi Man", which contains violent lyrics against gay men and claims that "they have to die". Another notorious song, "Boom Bye Bye" written by dancehall musician Buju Banton, advocates violence against batty boys, including shooting them in the head and setting them on fire.

But Sarah never used it in a hateful way towards gay people though she doesn't have no issues with gay people. She shouldn't have said and shes's messy and should stay away from the drink but its no where near homophobia yet

It is homophobic to say stuff like that though, why would it even pop into your head otherwise unless you somehow see it as an insult to say to a straight guy?

Exactly..she used it to say he wasnt being manly..or in other words..all gay men are not real men.

It is a homophobic slur but she isn't homophobic herself. It's ignorance because she isn't calling it a gay person in a hateful way or has an issue with gays.

Yeah and while we haven't got the video, if we look at stuff she said to Chad in there like be a man/man up etc it's not a stretch to believe it's something she's likely to say

[LeatherTrumpet]

Sarah then unleashed a torrent of expletives saying 'talking on phone slated by bitchy a**** ********** take it up the a*** .com.'


I think we can follow her train of thought..

No, she uses it as an insult to straight men to say they're not real men which is offensive to gay men I would have thought

I'm definitely not lying. 2000 people saw the stream.

Anyway Chad posted a picture of them 2 on Instagram with s heart emoji.

[*mazedsalv**]

I personally didn't hear 'ba**y' inn the video but heard pussy. And I heard shove it here etc... But that isn't homophobic.

But like I said i didn't hear the b word.

[Ashley.]

I'm not condoning Sarah's behaviour, but if someone dislikes her enough to take it to the Daily Mail... They'll probably exaggerate as much as they can.

I was starting to question why people were arguing over homophobic slurs when the article stated that she only "appeared" to say it... which probably means, she didn't. But then I do think arguing over something that nobody has any solidifying proof over is quite silly.

[Firewire]

Maybe Chad does like it up the arse? *makes thread*

Jesus Christ, wake up people. Blind devotion to horrible horrible people is killing this forum off.

She's a bullying, self-obsessed, down and out drunk.

And if you support that it says a lot about you.

No it isn't, blind devotion to a chosen house mate happens every year, this isn't new

He has such restraint though. He was still defending her whilst she was shouting abuse at him

Maybe so, I haven't been around here for years and can't see myself being around for years to come either.

There's no such thing as a reasoned discussion. It's all YASS QUEEN. Load of bollix. Bores me stupid.

And actually whether you like it or not Niamh it is killing it off, there are about 5 or 6 regular posters in here, any newbies run for the hills fairly lively.

nah, the forum is more quiet because 1 Big Brother isn't very popular anymore and 2 Forums aren't very popular anymore. DS was even more quiet than TIBB was this year because of both those reasons also

[parmnion]

Off to pastures new for me as well...this forum has died becauae of the lack of discussion about bb...most users just post giffs as replies now..causing frustration and anger...its poop...doubt i will be back for bb.
