My partner has a sister 10 years younger than him (she’s in her early 20s). We went to see her the other day and she was shocked by how much we dislike Luca and Jacques and how NOT ok we find the way they behave.
Her words were ‘I know loads of lads that act like them, it’s just a lad thing, it’s normal’.
Needless to say we were horrified and we definitely feel like we need to talk to her in more detail about the way they speak to women is 100% not ok.
My point is, if her views reflect that of many young women then it’s very worrying and LI need to do more to highlight this crappy behaviour.

I’d be interested to see what the average age of tattle users is! I’m 33 so not completely over the hill but got to a point where I can see a c*nt a mile off 🤣

I'm 33 as well. I've been in an abusive relationship before and have spent time reflecting on what the earliest signs of that were, so that also affects how I perceive some of the behaviour on this show. Not saying any of those guys are abusers, but I am saying that there are some red flags waving around the villa that make me very uncomfortable.

I agree that in general younger viewers are less likely to see the issues with some of the guys' behaviour. That's why I think LI need to make it clear that it isn't OK, to the islanders and to the audience.

I feel bad for Indiyah that the 3 people she seems to be closest to all came bottom of the votes. I wonder if she'll start to second guess herself a bit now.

27 and fuming with their behaviour. My friend loved luca up until recently. She used to have a really controlling husband. I pointed out L is possessive and manipulative and she soon changed her tune

Billy is added to the list of knobs. He’s “baffled” by her reaction. When they’ve been “intimate” and he’s just fucked her off now and can’t take responsibility for his actions and now laughing at her - she’s well rid of him
 
I’m 25, but I learnt my lesson pretty young (18) about crappy controlling men. It worries me that girls in their early twenties think that Luca/Jacques/Dani’s behaviour is acceptable. I’d like to think that I’d be able to spot it from a mile off even if I hadn’t had a horrible partner in sixth form/first year of uni, but honestly I’m not so sure
 
Dami and Luca are horrid horrid boys, and I'm getting annoyed that they get away with it so much.

I'm confused as to how Tasha is apparently the worst one in there, when most of the boys have done the exact same as her and worse! Ekin was sneaky and was snogging behind Davide's back, but the boys want to keep going on and onnn about Tasha wanting to get to know people - which she did openly and in front of andrew. I'm baffled by it. The girl was clearly confused and/or keeping her options open. I get it because Andrew is this nice guy (apparently) who's dead sweet with her but he is a bit boring so you would probably be a tad unsure. I think she genuinely likes him though, and I would say possibly less than Andrew but then look how he acted with Coco, so I think they're both as bad as each other. But thats naff all to do with Luca and deffo nothing to do with Dami considering he is still behaving like a pig.

They keep telling her they're her mates too - like duck off!!!

And then my other rant - why is there memes all over about Danica giving it to Billy as though she did a good job of it? I thought it was embarrassing. She didn't even know what to say, and Billy couldn't care less about her. But last night's episode was clearly over produced and im not about that. Im a first time love island watcher, because i dont really like reality shows that are fake, annoys me, so i wish they'd stop making it obvious that its a little bit fake because i kinda love the drama!
 
I think the thing is Danica told her two closest mates, hoping it was the start of something. Billy, in essence, humiliated her twice. I can’t believe people outside of tattle can’t see that!

With Tasha - she did want to get to know people when her and Andrew were fairly serious. So I do see where the boys are coming from, not that I in anyway condone it

I'm 30 and I have been struggling with luca's behaviour from week 1. These threads move too fast for me to comment but I try to just keep up when I can by reading here.
Gemma is dull I've never heard an opinion or a story. She just sits there usually with the octopus luca wrapped around her. She seems detached but I thought that from day 1 she never seemed that hyped to be in love island maybe that is from having a luxurious life but I know I'd be gassed to be living in the villa. It probably is like a holiday Inn compared to what she is used to but still.
I know some people just don't show emotion but on the date luca said something about her dad and she shut him down quickly so they have obviously spoken about how she doesn't want her dad brought up. They have coasted this entire series.
Also the producers really had to cobble together Gemma "flirting" with Billy for the movie night. There was nothing to that and luca loosing his mind wow. Hope he is prepared for people speaking to her outside.
The producers have chosen them as the winners for whatever reason. They are so bland.
Years ago I do think luca would have been my type the cheeky chap centre of attention but the second he got his claws into Gemma a very dark side came out. He is controlling and its the picking at her slowly but surely wearing her down is his style.
In older series u see the friendship dynamics better. And no I don't mean the fake bestfriends forever of liberty and kaz. That was pushed way too hard. I think they don't get loose enough and no one speaks there mind unless it's the boys bullying the girls. I think u see them all holding back when they speak to eachother.
The boys are very toxic this year in particular.
I was team Jay cos he seemed the most mature.
I could say a lot more but all in all. Luca is a little witch and dami can mumble his way home to dublin.
 
Paige was my favourite girl at start becayse I thought she was nice but I really am seeing how fake she is now and honestly find her so irritating to watch now the way she does the cutesy act to get male attention. She is the fakest in there imo. Yes she will get the boys interested but in reality they are not good guys that she gets because they will treat girls like dirt. The boys don't like danika but I reckon it's the more dickish/abusive/ egocentric boys tht don't like her and due to how she is straight to the point and completely herself she will weed out all the jerks

Could be an unpopular opinion but having a disability maybe Tasha was quiet and shy growing up and dealing with male attention is a relatively new thing for her? Could be way off but it’s something that’s crossed my mind. I don’t think she’s done anything particularly wrong and I don’t think she’s nasty but maybe could’ve dealt with some things better. She definitely doesn’t deserve the crap she gets from Luca and Dami.
 
Do you guys remember when Tasha was crying after being at the bottom after asking Andrew to be her bf and Luca and Co were saying “oh shes found love she can leave now” or something along those lines, well watch the double standards tomorrow when they’re discussing who to send home and they’ll flip the script and say Dami still has more to experience with Indiyah here etc etc he isn’t ready to go home, despite them being “exclusive but not using the label exclusive”.
 
Gemma is literally just shutting up and watching Luca treat people disgustingly and bullying Tasha.

Indiyah is allowing Dami to speak to girls disgustingly and having no respect for woman and bully Tasha. She’s allowing him to get away with pretty much whatever he wants.

Ekin slyly stirs the pot behind girls backs so I don’t understand why people think she’s a girls girl…if you watch back she’s done it to a couple of them.

Tasha has done wrong but no more wrong than the boys have done and is being targeted and bullied in my opinion.


Luca, Dami and Billy are dickheads and I will never like them, nothing will change my mind with Lucas and Damis forced apologies. I don’t like this whole thing of the more popular ones sitting and laughing and egging each other on while others are upset whilst finding someone’s weakness/downfall funny. Not cool
