Guy I am seeing likes watching Eastenders

[thisleiekg]

If someone liked watching Eastenders most nights, would this put you off dating them?

Unless he’s watching hardcore porn every evening I couldn’t give a shit what someone else watches on their leisure time.

Theres a group of us mature intelligent independent women who watch MAFS (UK and OZ) and gage a WhatsApp group that includes a few men. Its our guilty pleasure and a bit of fun - if anyone judges us for that then we don’t care

Worse than Eastenders , my DH watches those Competitive Eating videos (Beard Meets Food and The Shutts )

I know everyone has different tastes ( and he'd say the same about EE) but watching someone speed eat and literally force a huge amount of food -enough to feed 4 - without chewing ir tasting it ....
I think about the chef who prepared it , the people who can only dream of enjoying a meal like this to eat at leisure and enjoy , and the animal/s who died to be shovelled down someones face with no forethought .
<sigh . breathe>

Not sure why I was being piled on others said more or less the same as me. Maybe my contempt came through? I'll try my best to hide that, bit more in the future. Apologies if I offended anyone.

And yes, MN on Friday night is my evenings entertainment while looking after a sick baby and being trapped by said baby with nothing to do than doom scroll, MN, or stare at the ceiling...

And for the pp that's said treat it like a one night stand...I don't do pity fucks...leaves you feeling rather empty and unsatisfied, just a bit sad really. Embarrassed that you actually did it.

That's how I veiw all soaps. If I want that type of escapism, I come on MN.

Seriously? Watching TV is a female pastime?!

The sexist bullshit on here is ridiculous sometimes.

Why?
It's just a tv programme 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hello Everybody.

This is a very interesting issue, one which I think needs to be raised in the House.

However I'm not sure about legislation at this time because,

1. Time is a bit tight as I'm holding an election later this year 🙏
2. Some members in the Other Place use Eastenders as a way of keeping in touch with how all you Common People actually live.
3. Other members of That Place use Eastenders as a reminder to nap or eat or go to the toilet.

I'll give this topic some more thought, as it is not as frivolous as one may first think. 🤔

Why would it concern you?

I honestly don’t even understand the problem. It’s a TV show and he enjoys it. Should men/women only watching shows that are on streaming platforms like Netflix or something?

er no
eastenders, and other soaps is a female passtime

or are you just simply looking to be aggravating?

I call bullshit to your post

eastenders, and other soaps is a female passtime

It really isn't. That's just stereotypical nonsense.

or are you just simply looking to be aggravating?

No, I just call out stereotypical rubbish when I see it.

I call bullshit to your post

That doesn't even make sense 😂😂

Ha! I think we're married to the same person 😂😂

Before opening the thread I though this would be along the lines of
"My new fella likes Eastenders, can can someone tell me the key story lines what's been going on recently so I can watch with him"

Yabu

😭😭😭 I found this whilst looking for the eastenders spoilers thread

Whats going on here 😄😄, @thisleiekg , did you end things with the man based on his tv viewing habits?

A man who watches ee and classic ee would be a green flag for me
