Liz's "stab" comment
Now lets just say this was the other way around!!...Liz says her horse kicked her and she got angry and slapped it. Evander then says.."if that was my horse i'd stab YOU"...how would this place react to that?
and it wasn't like she was giggling or anything...the crazy woman looked serious.I just wonder why there's one rule for certain housemates and another rule for others?...Evander was vilified after his crass comments but Liz got saved after threatening violence!!..how does that add up? |

There is a slight difference between a tiny woman slapping a horse and a man the size of a horse, a boxer, punching a horse - which was pregnant.

Liz does seem a bit wacko when it comes to animal rights. It's ok to be against cruelty to animals but punishment should be proportionate. Punching a horse and getting stabbed in reprisal does seem a bit extreme.

There is a difference between a world champion, heavy weight boxer's angry punch and a woman's slap. I don't think for one moment Liz would actually stab anyone. The comment was a response which showed the extent of her disgust and anger.

This is a 'what if' that shouldn't be posted.
It only starts arguments. Maybe that's OPs wish |

And I thought she was laughing while saying it. I seem to remember Luisa laughing and Liz smiling?

That isn't the point the OP is making Would the reaction be the same if Evander said he would stab a woman....regardless of the reason? |

The difference is Evander is strong enough to knock a bloody horse out. Liz could charge at a horse and knock herself out. The situation didn't happen that way round, why? Because Liz wouldn't punch a pregnant horse.

Oh stop being such a drama queen! She was just exaggerating to emphasise how much she cares about her horse, of course she wasn't actually threatening him!
Get a grip. |

I agree with her totally if someone punched my horse esp size of Evanda I'd probably do that person a great deal of damage. Can't condone animal cruelty in anyway.

i think some people are kidding themselves here. under no circumstances would it be ok or allowed without some punishment for a man to say/joke that he would stab a woman

It was a dodgy comment aid aggressively, akin to a threat, which in the past has had people called into the diary room.

She didn't threaten to stab him. She said 'if you punched my horse, I would stab you'. Given no horse was present and is unlikely to be introduced to him any time in the future, it was a pretty idle threat. Why does everybody have to be so literal about everything Liz Jones says or writes?

Get a grip. Although personally, if I was in that house I'd have also said it to him - and meant it!

I think that discussing why Evander thinks that it's acceptable to punch a pregnant horse has far more validity than criticising Liz in her defense of the poor animal. Of course Liz wouldn't stab anyone whereas Evander DID punch the horse and seemed proud that he had done so.
I'm delighted that he's out as anyone who mistreats animals is a disgusting human being. I sincerely hope that he faces charges of animal cruelty for his admission |
