MAFSUK thread 8. Surprise Surprise. Only it isn’t. It is Only a Connection with a pair of New Faces. We’ve had The Chase. He looks Blankety Blank. It seems Pointless. One will give the other the Runaround. Then we’ll get a total wipeout.

Girls’ girl returns with Geppetto’s boy.

Am behind. Watched the "bitching in a manor" episode, will watch dinner party tonight.

Worse than the odious Luke are all these weak cowardly men who just sit by and watch Jordan be bullied. Thomas? Got anything to say? Paul (this one has plummeted in my estimation these days? Big hulking guy from Harrogate? Anyone gunna step in? No?

Honestly worse than bullies are people who watch on in silence. Don't you have any kind of conviction, good or bad?

Clearly as the most naturally conventionally good looking people on this show, Jordan and Erica are rejected by the group. I hope this brings them together.

I am another one who doesn't understand why JJ is happy to get with a trans woman. Not that it's "weird" to do so, but when your type of woman is so ingrained in you apparently that you reject Bianca, I'm really surprised that you would veer off course as far as Ella. OK, she's got the hugely plastic thing happening and he likes that. But until now he has also liked real vaginas? It seems a massive leap to go from women to trans women, huge. Something isn't ringing authentic about this situation at all.

Georges should have been paired with Laura and I think Arthur and Bianca would have been a great couple.

Agree with Laura and Georges but Bianca and Paul would have been a lovely couple. Tasha could have had Luke 😄.

None of them will last and the JJ thing is just so weird it's clearly contrived.

Found out today that one of the producers for Geordie Shore and one for MAFS are husband and wife.

dragonfly19 · 27/10/2023 17:32

Peggy matter of fact my saying "Everybody likes me, the don't like George" what?!

Paul2023 · 27/10/2023 17:50

I didn’t like the way none of the other men stuck up for Jordan when it mad made out it was only him that said negative comments about others people’s relationships.

Paul doesn’t speak up and enabled Tash’s shitty behaviour when she called Erica a tramp.

MelsMoneyTree · 27/10/2023 17:53

tbf to Peggy - the other women keep telling her they like her and don't like Georges.
I don't really understand why the producers are trying to turn it into an even trashier and more emotionally damaging Love Island. There's already Made in Chelsea/Made in Essex/ Love Island / First Dates - what made MAFS unique was it was supposed to be more serious and include science and psychology. The iexperts should all threaten to walk unless it returns to its roots. This series is causing real psychological harm to participants and showcasing deeply dysfunctional behaviour as desirable and acceptable.

Good grief, what the hell have I just watched. The experts (producers) make them ask inflammatory questions, then film the ensuing shit show. The experts aren't really experts at all. Everyone on the show is there for instafame and nothing else. The people who have morals aren't backed up by many (any) of the others, instead they are bullied.

It's a travesty of the original show 🙁

In the trailers, Ella looked like she'd had more lip filler

Laura's yellow dress was lovely, though.

They said that once previously when George attacked Porscha and was meddling a bit.. At the retreat they said in unison, you and George won't last. You don't like anything about him, you're not compatible.

I think Georges and Jay might be a fun couple.

Cannot stand Tasha now. She can go.

Put Paul with Pegging, I mean Peggy.

Erica and JJ will cause Ella to go into total meltdown.

What has Paul done wrong to deserve Peggy?

I would put him with Roz.

We all know the experts did not set those questions, don’t we? It’s the producers. The producers manipulate everybody including the “experts”.

NinaGeiger · 27/10/2023 19:55

Quote of the series for me:
"Didn't you call him a neanderthal?"
"I called him a neolithic simian. What's your point?"

AtlasPine · 27/10/2023 19:58

The pornification of women to make an ‘ideal’ of plastic football tits, tiny waist, long legs and arsehole lips lends itself to well to androgynous anal sex focused copulation. It’s a porn thing I think which means the soft contours of women are pushed aside for the construction of a caricature sex body.

Paul is bland and boring, like Pegleg.

Nooo Roz is great with Thomas. Although she might get on with Georges.

I could not have put it better myself.

Porn has also led to the fashion for lady garden topiary, easier to see the ins and outs when there's little or no hair covering up the garden gate.

Why do we call them ixperts/iexperts, please?

AtlasPine · 27/10/2023 20:30

Ixperts from the Aussie MAFs, I think. It’s how it sounds with a strong accent.

dragonfly19 · 27/10/2023 20:34

George does look like he's having the life sucked out of him. He has compromised a lot to be fair, but is losing himself now.

Paul2023 · 27/10/2023 20:55

I can imagine being married to Peggy would suck the life out of anyone..

JaneJeffer · 27/10/2023 20:59

Georges is not having anything sucked out of him

Paul2023 · 27/10/2023 21:00

JaneJeffer · 27/10/2023 20:59

Georges is not having anything sucked out of him

And never will do by Peggy…

Imamumgetmeoutofhere · 27/10/2023 21:01

@Paul2023 🤣🤣😂😂💀💀

TicTacNicNak · 27/10/2023 21:01

I'm not sure George's would go with Jay. At the very beginning when he was stating his likes, he kept going on about big "titties" as though this was mega important to him. He was impressed with Peggy's when he saw them. Jay is not so big up top. Personality wise though I think they'd be fun.

Yeah it was from the aussie mafs...
Although I think I might now change it to ick-spurts...they are giving me the ick big time with the shite they come out with.

Ssme92 · 27/10/2023 21:28

I'm catching up on a weeks worth of MAFS so I've no idea what others opinions are but here's my two cents...

I'm surprised by how much Laura has grown on me. I quite like her.

Peggy, just tell Georges you don't like him and put him out of his fucking misery. What is she staying in this for? "everyone likes me, they don't like Georges".... LOL!

Disgusted Ella and JJ were allowed back in. They are so childish, I'm not arsed listening to them and their stupid drama. Loved the experts calling him out for thinking with his dick though. Gas. Bianca is a Queen!

I really dislike Tasha!

My least favourite part of this entire staged show is when during the dinner parties, the experts are sitting back watching and pretending they don't know what's gone on, and then Mel will come in with "oh it seems to me that....." and describe exactly what has happened in the past week! Yawn! 🙄

43ontherocksporfavor · 27/10/2023 21:31

@Ssme92 Good summary.

funbags3 · 27/10/2023 21:53

Has anyone heard that Coco Chanel ad? I'm sure the song is sung by Ella.
