Because there isn't any bullying, persecution etc. There is goading, back biting, taunting, self righteousness, victim playing, irritation and gossiping. No bloody bullying.

Taunting is bullying. It's emotional bullying. And it's part of the show hence BB lets it go provided rules aren't broken.

I can't see any bullying tbh- I have seen Perez getting his own treatment back at him- he even said to Patsy he thrived on goading and he would continue to goad- I see that as sort of passive aggressive bullying tbh- I admire KH for not throwing in the towel, but tbh I would ignore him rather than keep talking to him when not needed..it must be very wearing.

talking of bullying, I also can see a clear intent from Perez to isolate Nadia from the group now he is back, I haven't noticed any over the top bitching behind her back -only about her relating to Perez - and certainly no more than her bitching behind others backs- as obviously that's what people do.
perez is going all out to get her back to himself, its almost scarey- didn't Lady gaga have enough of his "stalking"
though outside the house I can't see Nadia being enough of a Celeb for him to hang onto.

Who is bullying who now?..... What a load of tosh, if they warned everyone about arguing with anyone else they would have to put them all in their own rooms or tape their gobs up.

why after all these years and the "behind the scenes" comments of people who have left the house have you not realised you are watching an edited highlight designed to make things look more than they are....

there is no bullying... sleep tight

because it's scripted - they're all acting out the roles that have been given to them!

no... this is structured like x-factor (who are worse as they even camera rehearse so you get the surprise "pops" in the main show ... not scripted like top gear.

the show has been since BB2 (once they had a good idea of what viewers liked, what worked etc) a "cast" of "types" who would likely act their "type" - but that is not guaranteed ( BB14 Sophie was billed as perhaps from a feisty background but became very much the anonymous "doer" in the house who helped people but made little tv time )

so you take people likely to do certain things, and you give them tasks likely to then see them do those things..

its structured not scripted...

but if people cant see top gear is 100% scripted or x-factor is totally engineered and set up then you can see why they cant see what is going on with BB...

Haha Well said, yep there's no bullying, just several grown-ups behaving like little kiddies

Why not tell them off everytime they argue and house a series of people watering flowers and talking about the weather.

Saying that there is bullying going on is ridiculous.

It's shouts of "bullying" when all that is happening is a load of badtemper, arguing, and getting on each others' nerves that dilutes the real issues of bullying and does a REAL disservice to those who really are being bullied.

It makes me despair when people cite bullying, sexism, racism, etc., when there is none. Do you realise that by doing so you are belittling the instances where it is a real problem???

Agreed - and I think they're all loving acting their parts

Because there isn't any bullying, it's grown adults arguing.
If you can't cope with that - turn to another channel.

I actually find it quite sickening that so many people keep using the word bullying over and over again when it isn't warranted.

Twoddle. You absolutely cannot and should not take any of the above quoted words and claim they can only apply to extreme situations and in any lesser circumstances they should not be used at all. That's a problematic stance that means so-called 'lesser' instances become acceptable.
