LOVE ISLAND THREAD 11 - it's arsehole Wednesday!

[arseholewednesday]

Not hump day anymore, it's arsehole Wednesday! Wooo

Genuinely asking, could this be because the UK's demographic is only 3% black?

Honestly, I dont know. It was a point put forward that might merit discussion. But not on her, because it's been done over and over.

@arseholewednesday it's so boring isn't it.
Can't wait for the show to start so everyone can talk about something else

I watched clips of previous years where they read out tweets/what other islanders have said, and i forgot how ruthless they were, especially in the earlier series!

It was so ruthless in the early series!

I guess they'll be seeing it allll when they come out...

She is Irish, and I’m fairly sure it is a much lower percentage than the UK.

Not quite, arsehole. I'm the last person to put myself forward as a spokeswoman for issues I can't possibly throughly understand myself. It would be inappropriate. Educate yourself. And if you don't wish to educate yourself, then stop filling supposedly light-hearted threads with ignorance and then getting mad when called on it.

protein for the sake of accuracy, it was suggested that people wishing to discuss possible racism in the comments make their own thread. I don't think that's fair, we should all be allowed to challenge each others opinions here, where they are stated.

The issue of how well black contestants do had only been raised here after the Vogue link. Anyone can start a thread about it, I've not discussed it here. I posted again in response to people complaining about the use of 'Queen' and 'communities' and generally being dismissive of racism. Again. If you don't want it mentioned, don't bring it up!

Oh wow I think I missed all the deleted posts, I’m actually shocked some people have become so annoyed at me speaking about Yewande and using Queen in the same sentence !

I think the thing that does it for me is I didn’t once say anyone was being racist, but the anger that came through...wow.

It seems some people get upset at the thought of someone thinking their racist than them actually calling them it.

Anyway guys it’s nearly 9pm 🥰🥰

For some reason when I first say Danny I thought he would be like Maura - you know open and expressive but he's not. Hes quite middle class IMO if that makes sense.

And I’m sorry if it offends, but the black people I know that are around me do speak about black communities. Get over it.

For accuracy. It was me that posted it. I know what I said.

These conversations do have merit. But that's not what people here want and every single thread is hijacked by it.

I suggested a separate thread for those who wanted to have that debate.

WHAT HAPPENED TO BREEZY?!

@mnhq

I would love to know why my posts have been deleted

Can we not keep this a thread for active members of the game, and take the Yewande debate elsewhere, please. It's not why I'm here. I'm her for the tweets!

Well this is going well...

Personally, I didnt like Yewande, she obviously isnt an actual Queen.

But does it matter if people do call her that?

I think they are wrong, but meh.

Yay for Arsehole Wednesday!

^^ this got deleted. Why?

Lucie has her sights set on Tommy. She's fancied him from the start.

Woo it's starting

On a lighter note. I hope you all have a good time watching, I am off to socialise against my will

There is something really unsexy about Arabella.

I would love to see Lucie and Tommy rekindled actually.

Why do people have to get so aggy on these threads it's light relief

I proper love anton 😩

Case amor is going to blow them all apart this year
