    I believe that when you put yourself on a reality show in front of the whole world, you forfeit your right to complain about having your personality (or your sexuality) questioned or discussed during that time. If you don't want the nation analysing you then don't go on Big Brother.

    I know what you are saying and yes it is going to be debated and discussed (i have questioned his sexuality myself) however this personal situation with aaron is bordering on harassment if he is flashing the guy while implying that he is gay.

    Ah jaysis, Jack saying Chloe is the girl he finds the most attractive in the house couldn't but make you smile.

    That was cool

    Jade
    "I don't think Joel can handle my mental capacity"

    Tea was spit out laughing! :)

    Deluded

    Funniest thing I've seen all series!

    Cannot believe he got kicked out for that...

    If a fella did that to one of the women there would be murder. Totally wrong.

    Ah God, after seeing that I reckon a stern warning would have been sufficient. I understand BB's position completely, I just don't think there was anything aggressive or malicious in it at all.

    He was devastated :(

    I think there was no other option but to remove Aaron from house. I do think he is sincerely sorry but poor Joel, that nervous laugh, he asked repeatedly for Aaron to stop.

    Genuinely depends on the woman. I personally would find it hilarious.

    He should have received a warning. It was very unfair to kick him out like that without a warning.

    Funny how?!
    A young man being sexually harassed by and older man and not knowing how to stop him doing it, all the while everyone else laughing at him is funny now?
    If it was one of the guys doing it to one of the girls, do you Think they would be all laughing?
    Bb did the right thing

    So Aaron is kicked out for stripping, and a male stripper is entering??

    It was just banter.

    I watched him picking on Joel last night. He was told seriously to back off at that stage. Joel seemed very uncomfotable and moved away. That should have been enough for Aaron, but obviously was not. He had to go.


  • Posts: 13,839 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    He wasn't just stripping, heat, he was naked and gyrating against Joel. It wasn't a giggly laugh but a real nervous laugh.

    Aaron's exit depended on Joel's discussion in the diary room and he felt violated and BB acted on how the antics affected him.

    No it wasn't, do you know the difference, do you know the meaning of "banter"?

    He could be charged for that if someone reported him.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,677 ✭✭✭Eyepatch


    We had "just banter" on I'm a Celeb ... this year too. This also caused a lot of controversy.

    Where someone seriously feels a boundary is being ctrossed - then this has to be respected.

    I do Deco. I respect your opinion. I 100% appreciate that some people would be furious with Aaron's behaviour while others would find it amusing. All the housemates were cracking up laughing! I happen to find it amusing.

    Jade came across well tonight. Herself and Amy's conversation in the task room was really nice to watch.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 614 ✭✭✭colinod0806


    If one of the straight men do it too Harriet tomorrow, will she find it so hilarious? She is absolutely vile. Thank god her filthy mouth will be evicted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,962 ✭✭✭✭dark crystal


    Opinion is pretty divided on this over on various other fansites. Personally, I don't see how what Aaron did tonight was any worse than what Bianca did last year to Winston and she wasn't even warned over it.

    In fairness, he did go OTT when he jumped on to the bed and hugged him, but I don't think Joel was anywhere near as offended as was making out in the diary room. He was laughing along and not in a nervous way either, imo.

    Still, what's done is done and Aaron's gone. I think all the other HMs will be much more careful about mucking around now given how seriously BB takes this sort of thing.

    Found his sorry voice hilarious!
    Was he auditioning for a voice of a princesses teddy bear in a kids program?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 5,425 ✭✭✭dunworth1


    seeing joels reaction now.

    i think it should have been a stern warning

    True. I don't believe Joel's laughing was nervous laughing either. I think Joel probably thought about the situation after the fact and wanted to make it clear that he's not gay, and that's why he went into the diary room and made the strong statement against what had happened. But personally I witnessed Joel laughing, NOT nervously, even at one stage making his way over to Aaron's bed and he even touched Aaron for a few seconds. Joel stood there watching Aaron, smiling and laughing, doing not very much to discourage him, when he could have just walked away and completely ignored him just like he did with Jade in the bathroom the other day. I think the "outrage" expressed here is faux outrage, and I think it's clear why Joel feels guilty, since he laughed along with it as it happened and then changed his approach to the situation once in the Diary room.

    Big Brother was left with no option though because they can't take risks.

    Joel loved what Arron was doing! Joel is as gay a Christmas.

    He is the reason that Aaron is gone, going in after and talking crap!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,826 ✭✭✭fussyonion


    Absolutely disgusted with Aaron's behaviour in tonight's show AND for the other housemates who egged him on (Harriet in particular).

    I don't know why it is that some gay people (and yeah I'm going to come out and say it) feel that because they're gay it's perfectly OK to behave in a way a heterosexual person wouldn't.
    I think because they're gay, they think the rules don't apply to them.

    Aaron was disgraceful.
    He made Joel feel so awkward tonight and I'd have felt exactly the same.
    How the hell was it OK for everyone to be laughing at it all?
    What if that was a straight bloke doing that to a girl?
    Disgraceful.

    Boo-hoo drama queen Aaron, your five minutes of fame is over and good riddance to you!

    At one point Harriet actually pushed Aaron toward Joel. She seemed to find it funny. A real lady - not.

    She's vile. A typical school bully. Chavvy and blokey and just nasty.
    I sincerely hope she gets her comeuppance.

    Also, did anyone notice Aaron wasn't ACTUALLY crying?
    What was with the non-tears and put-on female voice?!


  • Posts: 13,839 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    No has to mean No, doesn't matter what gender says it.

    Did you see the bit where she took Joel over to her clothes and tried to get him to put it on? He said no, I'm not gonna do that. Or words to that effect.
