I feel like I don't even know anymore. I can't sit at work glued to the livefeed, so it's hard to judge. I do think that Nathan is vulgar, has bad habits, is sometimes annoying, controlling and often comes across as aggressive and inarticulate. However, I also think he can be funny, friendly and is more intelligent than he seems and cares passionately about certain issues.
I feel that the hatred towards him here is excessive, hypocritical and blinkered and that there is a sort of pack mentality to it. However, he has also upset a few of his housemates who have echoed sentiments expressed here about him. Then again, those same housemates have been known for bitching and have been slated for it when aimed at others, but applauded when it is Nathan.
I think that Nathan is perhaps struggling in the house. I think he feels bored and frustrated. I think he is actually battling a few demons that he wasn't aware he had. I also think that there are a lot of very short-tempered and bitchy people this year and a few sly, stirring types and that is always going to be a volatile mixture. It is nearly always 50/50 though.
I don't think Nathan has long left in the house though and I doubt he will ever change people's perception of him. Although he surely can't be called a radar-dodger anymore?
