Are you remotely excited? Will you be watching regardless? Do join me ☀️🏝

Same as the winter LI thread, please expect tabloid and social media spoilers xx

I’m starting to wonder if Yasmin is autistic or just trying too hard

Just seems hypersexual to me.

Meg seems hard work.

As does Yasmin yet she’s only had 2 lovers !

and she likes to break up marriages apparently

There is definitely something not quite right with her, whatever that may be, plus she’s only shagged 2 people??!!! That doesn’t align with everything else she’s been saying!!

So wooden with that Lego head! He said he has a child

I wish they'd put their names on the screen. And I wish the girls would wear more. Still too many bum cheeks wobbling about.

I've thought of my best bombshell - I want them to have that French man who does the Get To The Point Bro videos on social media.

I'm still catching up, currently watching Yasmin on the balcony with Harry. There is something a bit odd. Like a girl at school who feels she has to act hypersexual. It's like she hasn't really been around men before.

Loved how swiftly and accurately Shakira took Ben apart in her chat with Harrison. And thank god Harrison can actually have a conversation! It’s a relief to hear anything other than the standard lines in there.

i like Yasmin more now she’s calling out the contradictions in there and pushing people to realise they’re actually on Love Island and not married. She’s an odd one tho, saying all that nympho stuff while only having two lovers and no orgasms from sex with men. Perhaps she’s just playing a part to be provocative and mix things up. Or perhaps she’ll have an OnlyFans and wants fans for it. Agree she does sit very straight - wondered if she’d had back surgery.

Harrison reminds me a bit of Toby. I think people are being overly harsh with Meg, Dejon is winding her up and there’s nothing else to do in there. It seems like there were slim pickings with some of the people that are in especially Ben and Shea. I think Yasmin is very uncomfortable and trying to act like a super sexy bombshell but is just coming across as strange.

Dejon is definitely mucking Meg about. When they are on their own, he behaves as if they are pretty much closed off. As soon as she is gone, he’s Mr Open. The threesome chat and the comment about if Harrison goes for Meg that gives him more freedom shows that he wants his cake and eat it.

It’s a shame because I quite like Dejon and I think he and Meg could be really good together.

That's true about Dejon but Meg is still OTT due to her own insecurities. I don't think she was even that keen on Dejon at first but she went all in and her reaction to 'flirty banter' was bonkers - that's fundamentally what the show is for and she acted like it was some outrageous transgression. She does have issues that don't suit being early days 'open' with a player like Dejon. I wish someone - other than Yasmin who she won't hear - would spell it out to her so she gets it and stops the spiral. It's totally fine for them to pull back and connect with others. They're all just too scared of not recoupling and risking getting dumped, hence the pretence of strong couples when barely any of them are well suited.

That was a fun episode. Have decided that Harry literally couldn't give a fuck. He definitely is not on LI to find a partner, he is there to have fun.

Longjohn thinks that he is god's own special gift to the ladies. I get that he is a lovely looking man, but he's clearly a player. Not helped by the fact that blonde Meghan is clearly a bit unhinged and hasn't understood how LI works at all!

Wednesday Addams is odd. Can't work out what is going on there, but she's definitely mixing it up, so I'm all for that.

Glad that spicy Shakira has told Gloucester Roadman to stop being a silly prick. He's very annoying.

Harry is making up for the time he lost with his hair insecurity. He’s going to come on to every woman until he leaves.
Im kind of missing there being a fun friendship couple this year, all the talk is so overtly sexual, no euphemisms for anything(which I probably moaned about for being twee in the past but I am as fickle as these men).

I actually like Dejon, he seems quite funny and a nice guy but definitely not someone I'd trust in a relationship. We'll see how that progresses but not sure Meg is for him, I do think he might have been more suited to Malisha. Be interesting to see how he acts if they ever did "close it off".

The new boy Harrison is cute, I would like him to try and go after Shakira to see how that goes. Ben is imo by far the best looking but not sure on his attitude.

Ben’s attitude is repugnant and he’s just so thick he can’t have a nuanced reaction to anything. That dense refrain about her being vague saying she’d had a nice chat. He can’t process a thought beyond blokey basics and I’m glad she’s not taken in. Shakira can do so much better. Harrison mightn’t be right for her either but she needs to not be with Ben and they’d make a better couple for now. Toni needs someone more grown up really.

I wish they would send in multiple good looking boys/men instead of just sending in Harrison who had to choose between the two up for eviction.
Dejon has taken a dislike to Harrison as he sees him as a threat. We need more of that. He and the boys are far too cocky. Let’s see some hot competition.
It’s always the same, the boys have the upper hand and the girls get crumbs.

The whole chatting about threesomes is so obviously a producer generated device to try and 'spice' things up, with the added bonus that it's pissing some of the girls off.

I don't like it myself because the young and impressionable watching might think that - like anal sex - threesomes are now something that is expected in a relationship. Of course, most of what they are saying about their previous sexual experiences is about 99.9% bullshit.

There were stories on TikTok yesterday that Ben is/was an escort. No idea if it’s true or if someone who doesn’t like him photoshopped something.

Absolutely! I thought that too when Meg made out her fave position was taking it from behind. I mean, maybe it is, but it’s the porny answer. No wonder these girls aren’t getting orgasms. It’s all for show and no real care or connection.

I totally agree with this. The threesome talk/obsession is going too far.
I haven't watched love island (apart from all stars) for years and I'm surprised at how much they're focusing on the sex talk.
I'm no prude or anything, but I just think it's unnecessary. I know they're all going in for self image/a platform opportunity, but can they at least pretend they're looking for love 🤯 Harry, D and Yasmin and certainly not!!!

I'm surprised at posters having reservations about the threesome chats. Many of the games are overtly sexualised, where Islanders have to get into their favourite sex positions or snog the people they'd have a threesome with etc. Not to mention when they all do the horrific dances as though they were entertainers in strip clubs.

I'm genuinely curious why three islanders talking amongst themselves about a potentially consensual threesome is more bothersome than all the overtly sexual games that they are forced to play?

I just feel it’s been more out there than other years.

I hate all the lap dance, snogging, favourite position games they always feel on the edge of consensual but I accept I’m 25 years outside the target demographic.

I agree with a PP that all the threesome chat normalises it as an ordinary expected experience.
