Agreed. The meanness of that comment is quite revealing.

Perhaps the jealousy argument just reflects people's own character. If you aren't inclined to be jealous in the way the women have been accused of here, you don't assume it, but, if you are so inclined, you tend to impute it to others. (I assume the 'they are just jealous' promoters can't possibly mind random accusations of jealousy being thrown around).

Agreed.

There is also some odd obsession with 'properly quantifying' looks, you can't say this, this one is definitely 'better' than that one.

I find it very revealing about the attitudes to looks that it reveals, and the different levels of importance that posters give it.

I think that also might have some bearing on the ways the 'effect' of these looks on others, are considered.

She looked fantastic when she came out. That pale blue dress was perfect for her.

And her blonde hair absolutely blew Amy out of the water. What a change. She smiles and her face lights up.

Whats Amy got to do with this?
Also, did her blonde hair blow anyone else 'out of the water'?

Just Amy?

And this is the heart of the matter. Apparently Rebecca IS better looking than Amy Glad that's been sorted.

I think Rebecca, however, is FAR more attractive.

But that takes actually seeing them both in action a bit I suppose.

It's far more important though.

I'm actually inclined to believe the opposite is true that people who fight the idea of jealousy tooth and nail are more likely to actually experience the emotion.And I mean this generally before anyone gets offended and think I'm referring to anybody personally.
I'm not.

However thats just my opinion and if anybody wants to believe I harbour a secret jealousy of Amy,Lucy or KioskKeith they are certainly entitled to do so.


I think while Rebecca's hair is lovely and suits her pale complexion Amy's hair is a more natural more alluring shade.
Again,just my opinion

The irony of your comment is that Rebecca's hair colour is probably her own natural blonde, whilst Amy's is almost certainly not. However, their respective hair colours do suit them both.

I think it's more people who aren't baised against good looking, young women wondering why some people are. Since there can't be any good reason for that bias, bad reasons such as jealousy are the only candidates.


It is strange that the idea is fought so hard against.

You would have to do a load of research to show that any individual was biased against good looking young women (which would be a wee bit stalkerish) though. You would surely have to show that they had an excessive dislike for at least three or four, compared with plainer women whose personalities were no more likeable.




It's surely natural. To dislike someone, or not like them very much, suggests nothing more than that an individual finds something they don't warm to about that person. To attribute this to them being jealous turns it all round and says "no, she's perfect, there is something wrong with YOU." Which is never a polite thing to see without extremely good evidence.

Er, Amy's hair is not naturally blonde!

It does seem a bit harsh to say that Amy's coloured hair looks 'more natural' than Rebecca's natural blonde hair..

What the Amy fans need to get over is that many people found her personality dislikable. Including those forced to live with her. Is that not allowed by the looks obsessed or those unaffected by her greed,lack of team spirit, selfishness and dishonesty? Rather insulting to the rest of us with a modicum of insight, actually. She is not the only pretty woman to have ever appeared on this show AND they weren't disliked on such a scale, if at all. Does that not give you a clue!!!

Downright stupid IMO.

Thats because she's just been in the jungle in Australia.

You may have missed it

Just goes to show that you can get a decent tan moving around in the jungle. No need to lay there soaking up the rays

Says it all really. Endless dragging Amy into everything is SO boring.
Becca looked nice enough ,big deal.
Amy looked stunning though.

Not for the first time, I can't help noticing a certain lack of self-awareness in some posts.

I'm no expert on tans, but somebody else commented on the photo reckons Rebecca had fake tan on.

As you so rightly say, someone else has already, made that comment, I read it thanks.

I agree. Those people are very mean spirited. I believe that she looks just fine and should be confident in how she looks.

Quite


I assumed they both coloured their hair but I agree both colours suit both ladies perfectly. I may prefer Amy's shade but that is mere personal preference


Oh I do allow myself a chuckle at times

I apologise for making an error regarding whether or not a lady colours her hair.
Inform the church elders at once of this considerable outrage

Yes,as I understand it Peter

Just Amy

But if she looked ugly it would be alright for her to be called out on it IMO it would be much better if we didn't see the need to praise someone for how 'gorgeous' they looked full stop let alone in order to counter negative physical judgements they've received. It's all so subjective and completely unhelpful as it's playing into the hands of those who wish to judge negatively.

Rebecca needs self esteem lessons though I worry that she can never be helped as if an Olympian can't take pathetic insults online who can
