Celeb Big Bro Jan 2018 - pre-season thread

Hello PWBs, Lurkers and anyone else who is remotely interested.

Just read the first article I've seen about the January CBB - apparently they are starting off with all women.

Didn't they do this before or has reality TV made me imagine things?

Will anyone be watching this time???

It's not transphobia. If a man wants to wear a dress, get a boob job and chop their penis off then more power to them. I couldn't care less and hope it makes them happy and fulfilled.

It doesn't make them a woman though.

India looks fab but its not right, is it?

Sparklingbrook · 02/01/2018 21:46

It's all a bit underwhelming so far.

HellToupee · 02/01/2018 21:46

It’s really not transphobic to wonder what the fuck a person who lived with male privilege for the first 50 years of their life is doing in an all FEMALE house. It really isn’t.

SinisterBumFacedCat · 02/01/2018 21:47

I've actively avoided the trans threads on mn so far cos the anger either way baffles me. (Sigh)

sausagebaconandtomatobutty · 02/01/2018 21:47

The other housemates won't be able to react -they'd get thrown out for being transphobic

AnneEyhtMeyer · 02/01/2018 21:47

Speckle - the women will be forced to lie and pretend.

Fuck sake, celebration of women number 4, is trans. Any other year, full of trans absolutely fine, celebration of woman, my arse.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 02/01/2018 21:49

Exactly scooby.

If India is living as a woman, and has fully stopped, why do we need to know she was a man before? Can’t she just live as a woman, without promoting her previous status?

She seems an interesting character though. Think I like her and Ann best so far. They seem more real.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 02/01/2018 21:52

He had cosmetic surgery on his penis and takes hormones. That doesn't make him a woman. And all he does is go on about being trans anyway, so it isn't as if we are the ones bringing it up. He spends a lot of time shouting about pre-op trans as not really being trans too.

I don't have hate or strong feeling.

I'm just genuinely sad that it doesn't seem ok to have an all woman house without what appears to be a token nod.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 02/01/2018 21:53

Wow - this is a real woman.

Impressed they put someone like Maggie in.

HellToupee · 02/01/2018 21:53

Totally agree, Sheldon - ‘‘tis very sad.

FrustratedTeddyLamp · 02/01/2018 21:54

So a normal police woman who done their job?

sheldonesque · 02/01/2018 21:54

Now Maggie is my idea of a role model. Get in lass,

SnowannaRainbow · 02/01/2018 21:54

What does "cosmetic surgery on his penis" mean, has India had female genitals surgically constructed or not?

By tbe way not saying what she did wasnt awesome but not a celebrity

DonkeyNuts · 02/01/2018 21:56

It's political correctness gone mad. It's a travesty that an all female household isn't even allowed to be all female. What message does this send to women!?!?

FabulouslyGlamorousFerret · 02/01/2018 21:56

No I don't get the trans hate (either way) either sinister

I agree that they need to not make it her predominant 'feature' and not go on ... and on about it!

StilaOnTheWrongPlane · 02/01/2018 21:56

She seems really likeable

sheldonesque · 02/01/2018 21:57

Maggie or Ann for me.
