It wasn't simply nudity though was it?

There was touching, harassing and sexual gesturing. I'm not sure how Joel could/should have dealt with it. It is very evident that the house is without a 'leader' - they were all giggling (but I think were embarrassed) - someone should have put a stop to it.

It was unacceptable behaviour. Ejecting him was the correct decision - it went on too long.

Feel a bit sorry for him to be honest. No, he shouldn't have done it, but he was egged on by the others and everyone was laughing so much, he probably thought he was just being funny. Also, although Joel told him to stop, he didn't actually do it in a very assertive and decisive way and, again, spent much of the time laughing. A warning would have been enough.

Yes Aaron deserved to be ejected

Yes, Joel himself said he felt his personal space had been violated and that he didn't really know how to react as it had never happened before. It did seem like Aaron liked teasing him a it too much with his sexuality

Yes. But only because had a guy done it a girl it would have been treated with the same severity.

Doing it once was bad enough, the fact he continued and repeatedly did it means he should have gone, no doubt in my mind.

He shouldn't have persisted, but I think a firm warning should have sufficed.

At least then we'd have been spared the five year old's pretend crying voice at the end.

No. He was been encouraged by the others, are they being removed too?

Joel's dr was very snakey.

Had he not got up close to Joel I would say no but you can't rub your willy up against someone and think its ok.

I can understand how awkward Joel felt and the sexual teasing of him has been building up over days but Id have more respect for him if he'd said it at the time rather than in the DR.

Not sticking up for Aaron cos I don't much like him, but I totally blame BB. They should've stopped it way before it got that far, and then a severe warning would've been the appropriate action. Why didn't they call Aaron to the diary Room earlier?

But as it DID go that far, and bearing in mind if it had been a straight guy harassing a girl it would've been shocking, I think the removal was appropriate. But BB COULD have stopped it.

But a situation which had to be taken seriously none the less.”

Joel is 19 years old - if he was a young girl and that had been a male harassing him do you think it would have been acceptable?

He was way out of order.

Aaron was obviously just mucking about. He wasn't about to attack Joel. A warning would have been enough. Joel is a self-righteous and pompous individual, a "young fogey" who takes himself far too seriously.

I'm unsure. It was inappropriate and a but uncomfortable to watch (although I did laugh a bit ). I don't think he should have been removed I think a formal warning and a stern talking to would have done the trick. He did seem genuinely gutted and sorry and I think if BB had explained to him how serious it was then he wouldn't have done it again. I do think the decision was a result of Joel's conversation in the diary room.

Agreed. The emphasis really was how Joel felt even though BB made the decision. Perhaps they felt it would escalate everytime Aaron got a drink in him.

I'm torn, I appreciate they are being tougher, especially after Helen's year when she was bullet proof, but that shouldn't negate any fun. I can see the uncomfortable aspect to it and Aaron should of stopped when Joel said stop it, however streaking is commonly known to be a funny act, but he over stepped it when he invaded Joel's space. I think a formal warning would of been enough. Didn't like the guy but I'd rather he'd been evicted naturally.

Agree 100% but I still feel its a COMPLETE over reaction.

He was joking around - admittedly if it were to me I'd have laughed it off but told him to stop it AND made it clear I meant it.

Joel did not. He didnt even look offended. Or overly bothered. Until he got to the diary room. I do understand some people may not know how to properly say no as they are in shock but it didnt look like that at all to me!

I have to say I'm dissapointed with Joel and think Aaron (who I cared not a jot for beforehand) has been harshly dealt with. A warning not to do that again would have been more then enough.

Complete over reaction but as stated - its the world we live in now. Someone on telly may be offended so OH NO - BURN THEM!

Big Brother was right to eject him. Aaron was totally inappropriate.

This ejection is convenient for the producers though. I'm sure it's boosted the ratings and Aaron was trending on twitter earlier.

It's a shame as I liked Aaron as a housemate until this happened, but his behaviour was completely unacceptable and Big Brother was justified in ejecting him.

Sadly, yes. Although Joel was giggling slightly, it was clear that he felt uncomfortable with the situation and Aaron should have reigned himself in. Having said that, I did genuinely feel so sorry for Aaron, because I know he didn't mean anything unpleasant, but if you keep someone in after that you set a very dangerous precedent.

I can see how a situation like that can develop. It starts with fun, friendly banter, flirting with someone you know isn't interested, and sometimes you forget to think objectively about your behaviour. I was really starting to get to like Aaron, and I wish him all the best if he reads this.

His removal was totally justified. Reverse the situation. If Danny had done that to Jade everyone would be going on about sexual assault. It was unacceptable behaviour and Aaron over did it.

Harriet should get a least a warning for encouraging Aaron

No, but if it distressed Joel to such a point he wanted to hit him, then he deserved to go.

If it was a man doing it to a woman he would have been straight out, why shouldn't the same rules apply to a man doing it to a man?
