MAFS AUS#8. No Spoilers. We are girls girls but if it’s ‘ride or die’ some of these girls are not worth the ride…

New thread

Just saying because I had to look her up. She's indeed a psychologist. Scary.

Okay I am sat

'Military man tyson'

The men in the army do a tough job. Scary that an incel is going around claiming them 😳😳

Wow, that was hard going. Where do they get these people?

Whats probably happened is One gay guy has accidentally hit on new incel and now he wont stop banging on about it

No, I think Scott is just thinking with his dick

He fancies Gia and therefore excuses most of her behaviour, even if he’s uncomfortable with it.

I think this episode might have put me off Mafs forever. I genuinely thought, after the horror show of Brook, and after ditching the no hopers, Stephen and Rebecca, that we might have some decent new couples. Of the existing couples I only believe in Stella and Fillip so I thought a few new couples, albeit with some hiccups, would bring the programme round for me but Joel is just a joke and Tyson has made me want to punch him.into next week and I am not a violent person. I feel so sorry for the brides. I would refuse to go on honeymoon with either of them. Also, who the fuck does Gia think she is (and, interestingly, Alissa too) bringing all the attention onto themselves when attending the weddings? This show really does contain some of the most objectionable people. Time to end the show, I think.

Tyson wants an ultra-feminine, submissive wife to make himself seem ultra-masculine. He needs to convince himself and others of his own masculinity.

I know a lot of men in the forces and a lot of men that aren’t “woke”. None of them are thick, nasty , simpleton’s like Tyson.

Correct again 👏

Dear god. What have we just watched!

We say every year that the show has an appalling record with respect to duty of care to the participants.

Bec should not be there for her own well-being, Gia shouldn't be there because she's a nasty bully and should have been removed from the dinner party, but allowing a woman to be alone with that thick necked misogynistic arse wipe is appalling even by tbeir standards.

His face says otherwise. A few times i thought he looked like a scared puppy. Hes walking on egg shells with Gia. Emotional abuse does that to you. He is thinking with his dick whilst being in an abusive relationship. It starts off amazing, love bombing etc. but then the mask slips.

Yeah, Scott just wants to shag her during the experiment, so will out up with her personality..

Bec has some unresolved trauma the way she collapsed because a two week relationship might not work out. She's vulnerable.

Ex army myself , long time ago now and I don’t remember ever meeting anyone like him.

On rewatching the Joel / Juliette reception, Bec is trying to get Stella onside with ‘who does Gia think she is?’ . Stella does a great job of being non committal. I think she and Filip do a good job of staying on the sidelines in the group.

Every year I get really confused with the experts. I like how they handle the commitment ceremonies. There is v little nonsense and I can tell they have a lot of expertise. I just wonder how they handle the obviously weird matches like Tyson and his masculine woman. I don't think for a second they match anyone themselves, but they are portrayed to be selecting these people.

Joel and his mother must be actors. They can’t be real people. They are absolutely not being serious.

Well I was out tonight but seems like I missed a lot (will catch up tomorrow) and then tomorrow night I’m at my nephew’s stage school show so won’t be here again!

Does anyone believe in any of the couples really though?

Gia and Scott are in for the sex and the fame.

Luke and Mel, I don't think they've even kissed yet.

Alissa and David, I could be wrong but I don't get the feeling he is really into her. He says the right thing but not convincingly.

Bec and Danny, he isn't into her, he's just staying until the end for maximum exposure then will suddenly find something wrong with her when it comes to the final commitment.
Steve and Rachael, god where to start? He has major issues! They may stay friends but there is nothing sexual there.
Julia and Grayson, she isn't in to him, he is far too mainstream for her liking.

It may be that I have watched too many series of this show, but you can just see how each relationship is going to fall apart. Why not call it 15 Seconds of Fame and be honest about it because it sure isn't Married at First Sight.

I was engaged to an army bloke (Canadian). All I’m saying is I’m pleased I didn’t marry him or have his children. He has matured since having an unexpected kid though, shares custody with the mom. What they say about army guys is true, not with me but with other gfs wherever he was in the world he cheated, so I heard.

You forgot Stella and Filip, the lovebirds.

I’m getting Jim Carey type “wackiness” from Joel with those facial expressions

Absolutely. She should not be there.
She is incredibly immature and unfiltered too.

No way will Stephanie survive the honeymoon with Tyson.

The ixperts would have to turn the clock back several millennia to make this work.

Yeah I already said they were the only ones I believed in but hey, I'm ready to find out they split 2 days after filming ended! This is Mafs, after all.
