Oh dear. I know it's kind of supposed to be inoffensive lingo but to some it will be offensive. Tying in with what Holyfield said, this could be bad...

Also on Tellymix it says it's his THIRD warning!

I wonder if Dappy will be able to use the "Religious Belief" defence.

PC crowd are going to love this. One can't engage in any kind if dialogue these days without it being dissected by those wishing to eradicated freedom of speech.

How many warnings do they get? Didn't it used to be three strikes and you're out?

Well he is skinny, maybe doing that act would slightly bend him in half.

Third waning was the final one (I remember this from BB5).

I think it's a bit of an over-exaggeration. It's nowhere near as bad as what Evander said. It's not like he said anything against gay people, just used a term that I suppose could be construed as offensive (but I don't think so).

Funny that he's had two warnings already, and we know nothing of it. It really makes you think about just how much we haven't seen.

Article says he was 'reminded' so maybe they haven't considered it a formal warning. I thought three warnings and you were gone.

I imagine many of his warnings to be tagged as reminders, so they don't have to get rid of him.

Not that I want them too, I like Dappy, but bending the rules to keep someone isn't a great way to go (not that it's a new thing at all).

Would they have said anything to, for example Christopher Biggins, if he had said "Do I look like I am straight?"?

I have a notion you are correct on that one.

I very much doubt it somehow. Although if you are going to get a ticking off for saying 'do I look bent' then I suspect in reality you should be.

Funny old world.

I'm gay and I'm not offended by this. It's put into context just how bad Evander's comments were and I hope people now realise just how unacceptable his comments were. Dappy wasn't aiming this at anyone at all, he wasn't even talking about gay people; it was just another way of saying he's straight.

He didnt put his foot in his mouth. BB is just being ridiculous over trivial things.

I remember Louie Spence making a similar comment, he was acting camp then said something about do I look straight. Did he get a warning? Nope, so BB just being pathetic as usual over this matter.

Why should he have to defend his opinion, ffs we are not all robots, we dont all think the same and act the same.There was nothing offensive in what he said.

To be fair, I'm not offended by Dappy's choice of words, rather the context they were said in. - As though being gay is inferior?

If anything, his remark reveals just how sexually unadventurous he is. I'm straight, but if I could suck my own willy I'd end up with a crick in my neck.

In your opinion, of course. The use of the word "bent", a derivate of "bender" could be considered derogatory in the opinions of others. I suppose Big Brother are airing on the side of caution with their reminder of the rules.

I suppose it depends when the "warning" took place
