Hmmm... I'm not an expert on bitches on heat!

But it's interesting the way the mysogynistic terminology is used and it's socially acceptable. Unlike anything that might even vaguely smack of racism (not that Jade, Danielle and Jo were very vague about it).

thelittleElf · 19/01/2007 20:32

It's on.....woohoo......come one Jade!!! Wonder what the 'classy chick' will have to say for herself!

totalmoron · 19/01/2007 20:33

woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!

I think this is a bit mean to one of the many strawberries. I think she was trying to say - as I have said myself - that Jajodielle are fiercely jealous of Shilpa's self-assured manner, her confidence, education, moneyed background, looks, style and the fact that the men all clearly respect her. Just as the hideous Pete hated Jodie for being a real female. Envy and insecurity makes people lash out, and if they are mean and crazy people, they lash out in mean, distasteful and crazy ways. I actually think this has all reached the point of absolute hysteria, enjoyable though it is. I'm glad Jade will be voted out, think she is scary and horrible, think Danielle is the most deeply racist and Jo is strange, hideous and confused. Cleo is scared and weak, Jermaine is bonkers in RL but in the BB house comes over like a cross between the Dalai Llama and Kofi Annan, and Dirk is a sweetie. H is....negligible. I think they should just wind it up now. No new housemates PLEASE.

oh god
not Aloha as well
I can't believe it
We are DOOMED I tell you

Aloha · 19/01/2007 20:41

Caligula, I could not agree more about the comparative acceptability of gender-based insults compared to race-based insults.

CountessDracula · 19/01/2007 20:41

DOOMED

pooka · 19/01/2007 20:41

Have to say that while I think Jade and her coterie are vile and what they've said is revolting, I also don't like the terminology used to describe them. Bitches on heat? Yuk. Very misogynistic.

Aloha · 19/01/2007 20:42

I have only watched one entire episode! I want to be Jeremy Paxman, above it all...but I'm so not.

pooka · 19/01/2007 20:43

lol at aloha's decroption of Jermaine. He'll be up for dg of the UN before we know it. Illustrative of the lot of them if he appears the most sane and insightful.

fookin 'ell this is embarrassing - 2 brits who don't have scooby where Norfolk is!

Well done Mr Blair with your education programme!

dabihp · 19/01/2007 20:46

SHILpas speech was so scripted!

Earlybird · 19/01/2007 20:47

Jade still making digs at Shilpa by saying a little too loudly 'don't know what my plans are for when i get out of here, because Big Brother is my life ya know'. And then adding her plate to the washing up Shilpa was doing....

JoolsToo · 19/01/2007 20:47

AND she hasn't heard the racist comments - only the putrid vocabulary that emitted forth from Jade's tirade

Monkeytrousers · 19/01/2007 20:48

Plastic surgery - I loved gossiping about this with you Aloha. I think defo (sorry but I always spell that wrong so won't even try).

What's your opinion??

(BTW, I am experienceing this vicarioulsy via the thread as I can't get C4!!!)

I haven't really been watching this so have no idea whether what the three horsemen of the apocalyse (I suppose Illiterate Jack could be the fourth?) have been saying is overtly racist or just potentially so (depending on the subjective judgment of the viewer), but I sort of don't think it matters.

Racism is vile and most of society agrees on that. But if these women are not racist, they are at the very least behaving appallingly to someone on the grounds that she is different. Maybe she is different because she is more talented, more well mannered, more beautiful, more successful, better spoken, has a differen accent or is a different colour. It doesn't really make any difference what the reason is - it is just plain nasty. The problem here, I think, is that we are a very bullying society and bullying is often ignored. In this case, many people are up in arms because racism is so reviled in our society, but really bullying in all its forms and for all of its reasons needs to become socially unacceptable.

The whole thing is revolting and I, personally, can't wait for the freakshow to be off the air for good. I just wish that this would spell the end of CBB, BB, BBLB, BBBM etc etc.

brandy7 · 19/01/2007 20:49

so dirk got told hes not up for eviction then??

AitchTwoOh · 19/01/2007 20:50

much as davina is trying to rein in her frantic mugging, she's failing...

pooka · 19/01/2007 20:52

She just can't help it, can she? Davina that is. She's as one dimensional as Dermot.

Monkeytrousers · 19/01/2007 20:53

What is happening??

Is it eviction now or later. I can go to my neighbours once their kids are in bed at half nine!
