Did Aaron Deserve To Get Removed ?
A mild warning was all that was required for that.
BB could have called him to the diaryroom much earlier, before it had gone too far.
Even if Joel had not come to the DR, I'd still say yes. Because boundaries were crossed.

I completely disagree. Harm isn't always physical trauma.
Yep, he deserved to go imo. He went way too far. However, he was encouraged by the rest of them.
Out of order, and it was bordering on sexual harressment.
No I understand why he was removed. When other housemates have "flashed" in the past it's been in gest and although the Aaron started out in that way, he shouldn't of continued when Joel was clearly uncomfortable. When biannca got naked last year it was part of a game and wasn't aimed at anyone and the other time was when she stripped for Helen. Although I'm sad Aaron is leaving, he was quite a character

Nervous laughter?
Lets face it, aarons behaviour was getting worse and worse. Its best to stop it now and get rid of the pest.

Yes it didn't help that Harriet kept standing up and making mock 'flashing the towel' gestures every five minutes while bursting her sides with laughter. In fact they were all happy going along with the horseplay of it.
If you're encouraging like them all did like Harriet pushing Aaron into Joel and not saying stop you're just as guilty
No he never it was just a joke too far all he needed was a warning Big Brother could have even called him to the Diary Room earlier to stop it.
It was borderline but once Joel made it clear how uncomfortable he was they couldn't have kept him in
In the real world Arran would be missing a few teeth and Joel would be up for assault probably. BB had to respond to Joel's expression of personal violation whether it was exaggerated or not to do nothing could of ended up getting worse.
Joel felt uncomfortable, he complained, so Aaron was removed.
It's really not complicated. People keep on bringing up comparable situations, which aren't actually comparable.
The only comparable precedent is that of Daley and Hazel which caused a totally despicable amount of victim-blaming on here and other places because the person who felt threatened was not particularly popular.
A warning would have been enough. Aaron has been teasing Joel since the series started and Joel has made comments and encouraged it to carry on. There's been a number of times where Aaron has made it clear to Joel that it's all "banter" and that he's only messing about. Joel did look uncomfortable during what happened tonight, but it wasn't 100% clear whether he was or if he was going along with it. I know Aaron was a bit of an idiot but if Joel had clearly told him to stop and made it clear he was uncomfortable like he did to BB in the diary room, then I do think Aaron would have stopped. A warning from BB would have been sufficient.

Yes, if he was that uncomfortable why was he smiling and laughing, there has been mutual flirting in the past and the spin the bottle played a part as well.
I think removal was the wrong decision but then this year's BB has not been good at making good decisions.
He deserved to go, he took it too far, for too long. Joel has every right to state he was uncomfortable with a naked man invading his personal space - why an earth should he say it's okay when it's not.
Probably best to set a precedent. People are tempted to always start drawing comparisons to previous housemates behaviour in previous years. "Why wasn't so-and-so evicted when they did so-and-so, that was worse imo". So now it's set. That can end it.
i think it was harsh as well and a warning would have been suffice
He did tell him to stop, he didn't stop.
The 9 people who picked "He Shouldn't Have Even Got A Warning" really do have a problem.
If Christian or Danny had done that to Adjoa before she left then they would have been kicked out.
Complete joke. Sorry but that was unfair. I am not Aarons biggest fan but come on he was playing. This is Big Brother for gods sake, people have always pranced around in the house and if your not comfortable with this kind of thing dont apply for show.
ok so he kept going on at joel but all the hms were laughing, Joel didnt look massively upset by it. Yes he may have felt a tad uncomfortable as being a young virgin but surely he knew it was all banter...should of just left it as a warning..even that i thought was silly.

You have a sick sense of humour. Or are you just a troll?
Unbelievable and the comments on here, the hypocrisy from BB/Channel 5 is mind blowing if it was so appalling why show it in such detail and then does it get discussed in BBBOTS of course not barely mentioned.
