The show has evolved for sure! Higher viewing figures means higher financial gain!

Some contestants apply, and there are scouts combing social media. Like with Love Island…they know drama sells!

There should be duty of care though, they had to learn that with Love Island.

It was painful watching Gem yesterday and the rejection from Matt, she is developing feelings for him so she says but I think it’s more the rejection she can’t cope with. Her past has not been a stable one, her mum-figure seems more like her enabling friend.

I hope care is available for contestants, precessional ones and not the weird expert panel.
It is painful to watch especially as others have said she’s put him on a pedestal and it’s really cringey to hear her telling him he’s a fit husband and she really likes him and he’s basically just like “thanks 😐
 
Totally agree - double standards.
Least someone gets it I don’t even know the lass and I feel sorry for her she’s being slated online saying she shouldn’t have kids she’s a terrible mother how does she have a business with how vile she is without even looking at the bigger picture I don’t believe for a second this Matt is innocent there is something extremely dodgy about him and how nobody else can’t see that is baffling me

i get what you’re saying and i agree but tbf (on here at least) i think that the comments re her kids are more along the lines of “hope her children don’t see/hear some of the vulgar things she’s saying on national tv” rather than saying that she shouldn’t have kids. its complicated really because (i don’t have kids lol) being a mother doesn’t mean you have to become a nun, but there should be some awareness that your behaviour on tv will most likely get back to your children, especially those of her children’s ages :(
 
I’ve voiced my opinions of Gemma already, she’s vulgar, gross, and just uncomfortable to watch. However, I totally agree that SPH is equally as unnerving. Something about him is shady, yes he has the right to be grossed out by her behaviour….we all are. But I do think he has a nasty streak which we haven’t seen yet. We haven’t had the chance to yet as all the focus has been on her vulgarity, but I have a feeling it will come. He’s no innocent party by any means. Definitely cold and off

to be fair I’d be like a briar were I faced with constant innuendo and pressure to have sex with a stranger. So far he’s just been brutally honest. I think it diminishes the fact she’s being a sex pest when people speculate that there’s just “something off” about him. There mightme and if there is no doubt it will show. She’s being a dick though as is Kasia and they’re getting away with it because they are women which is sucky double standards IMHO 🤷‍♀️
 
I agree that it’s equally unacceptable when a male or a female is persistently pushy for sex and / or sexually vulgar with someone who has repeatedly said they don’t like it.

One has to wonder the show’s narrative in the case of Gemma and Kasia. Are they aware it’s uncomfortable watching? Do the editors think because it is female sex pests it’s entertaining and funny?

Kwame didn’t look comfortable when the ‘sex specialist’ passed by with a bag of tricks (lube FFS) to convince him to get sexually active with Kasia. Imagine the roles reversed? A female politely and repeatedly rebuking sexual advances from a sex pest guy, then she is convinced by a sex expert bringing S&M gear and lube? Stupid! And cruel.

At least Whitney refused to do the stupid hugging staring activity with Duka. It’s her right.

I felt sorry for Kwame tbh.

Yeah I agree completely. Why can't these shows see that it is completely unacceptable behaviour when it's a woman too. Mind you they never learned any lessons last year - Nikita was allowed to stay far longer than a male would have last year, she then popped up on other E4 shows - which if it had been a male let go for aggressive behaviour, then I doubt that would have happened.

Couldn't believe the so called "expert" wheeling in a suitcase load of sex gear as seen on last nights episode. Fooking hell - if you need all that for your 1st time together (lube anyone?) then you're flogging a dead horse.

I’m all for sexual liberation and women going after what they want but not when the other party is unwilling and you don’t back down. Bringing in all that sex stuff was totally unfair. I did laugh at Kwamye loving it with his blindfold on though, he was definitely picturing it being the instagram model he wants 😂

That was just ridiculous. If you don't fancy someone then a whole load of products ain't going to change that, unless they stick a load of Viagra in the case. Kwame I think is trying not to be rude & avoid the issue, he said at the start he normally goes for more petite ladies. If you fancy a big greasy burger but Just Eat brings you a salad, it ain't gonna hit the spot really is it. Or the other way round, you know what I mean.
