He wasn't emotional at all just annoyed and embarrassed. There was no sense of danger or aggression in that. Of course it was obnoxious behaviour but it was meant to annoy not terrorise.

Yes. If a bloke had been doing that to a girl, Harriet would have laid him out with one punch, not egging him on.
It was unacceptable. Aaron clearly crossed a line. He should have had more sense, even though the others were encouraging him in his behaviour. Like others have said, we wouldn't put up with that if it was a female he was sexually harassing.

I agree. I wonder if for example Cris got himself out and started trying to hug Harriet 1) if Harriet would be pissing herself and 2) people would be questioning the decision.
Like he said, that sort of thing has never happened to him before. He didn't know how to react, he was obviously shocked and embarrassed. All the housemates laughing didn't help, I suppose that made him feel even more awkward.
He shouldn't have done it. All the housemates egged him on too like Nick saying "Show him", so it's an awkward situation. I think Joel should've went to diary room straight away if he was so bothered though.
Joel was extremely uncomfortable and didn't know how to react,it didn't help with the HM egging Aaron on Harriet was the worst but they all thought it was funny and acceptable because it wasn't happening to them. They all need to be told what's acceptable and what's not seeing as they can't work it out for themselves.
I liked Aaron as a HM and I don't think he is a horrible person but YES he deserved to be booted out he crossed the line on a national TV show after being given fair warning before entering the house. HMs are all trying to get on with each other and look good on tv so when someone crosses the line they are making it hard for the other players since they have to follow the rules and not react so that their place in the house is safe. The whole situation is a mess it is BBs responsibility to fix it and booting Aaron out is right, he screwed up he lost the game.
