Absolutely. Excellent post.

*Applauds*

Excellent, brilliantly observed post


Very Astute in fact

Precisely, he does the same thing every episode the repetitiveness of his actions and behaviour is extremely boring.

The same bookies who predicted that Hughie would win the summer BB?

Very well put.

It's not so much the behaviour that I think is the problem. There have always been obnoxious wind up's in the house. My problem is BB's obvious bias in favour of him. He's not kept in check and the other HM's can't do anything about him while they know BB has his back. They've engineered his win and made a complete farce of the programme in the process.

I find the whole thing embarrassing. But so long as the ratings remain, because loyal BB fans have been replaced by faddy TOWIE/Geordie viewers, they won't care.

Sadly, very true.

I agree with the title. bear is sh*t>

Sadly, 'vote to save' keeps him in or he'd be looooong gone, like Marco was. {there's another thread going atm proving this beyond any doubt.]

Agreed .

But BB in showing it, goes some way to explain why they all look so deflated, ground down and even traumatised.

On the other hand , by neglecting their duty of care and in "stepping in" far too late to address this ridiculous pantomime - BB has, in fact, encouraged it, exacerbated the behaviour and I think it may be too late to address now.

Even if Bore were evicted, thrown out, removed - the others are so worn down and deflated - it is barely worth watching.

I don't think they have given him any official warnings . They are all to scared of him.

I am sorry, he is not a brilliant housemate. He is a show off and a bully. No respect for authority and his fellow housemates. The producers are totally neglecting the others and pandering to him all the time.

Couldn't agree more.

All these generalisations and airy-fairy accusations about bullying. yet not one instance is mentioned and no-one is named as having been bullied.

I've seen bullying on BB before and what Bear is doing is winding people up - not bullying. Repetitive unwarranted use of the word dilutes its meaning.

It goes beyond that - and if you can't see it from Renee's repeatedly asking him not to talk to her - and him encroaching on her personal space - then it isn't worth explaining

ETA : And in addition, as an analogy , you would probably not understand the legal construct of ASSAULT where threats are made but no physical contact is made either

I did see Frankie do that to Bear , Bear continually asked him to get out of his personal space but Frankie wouldn't .


I think Bear handles Renee quite well , the woman is very aggressive and abusive , Bear turns it into a joke , but she continues swearing at him .


.

Why should he respect them? All they do is slate him

That's a little chicken and the egg.

I think that may be Bear's downfall.... seems that HeavyD will go this evening, so now Bear is without a close ally So unless Bear can get Aubrey under his thumb before the next eviction... when Lewis is voted out next, that leaves Bear and Marnie.

Can't see Bear respecting any boundaries where Marnie is concerned. Add alcohol and he'll make a grab for her, which I don't think Marnie will respond to.

That could be the incident to which BB has to take seriously.

BIB This is the pattern of an emotionally abusive person : goads and goads and goads someone- especially after they have asked him to leave them alone - and then when they do lose it - he sits back and smiles and looks around at everyone with "look what I have to deal with ...."

Passive Aggression .

Close the thread, the title alone says all anyone needs to know

she's the one that's abusive .

Who the hell does she think she is demanding that another HM not speak to her ? he can speak if he wants , and he handles it well , she winds herself up with all that hate and anger she's got , he doesn't respond like that .

she needs to realise that making threats and being abusive isn't the right way to talk to people .

.

She asked him to not come near her . He winds her up . She knows it . He knows it .
She has been around abusive men before .
I would certainly ask him not to come near me - I find him goading, tormenting and repulsive.
You have noticed he doesn't do this to the guys ?

Well said.

he didn't go near her .

she demanded he didn't even speak to her ( with the usual swearing and abuse )

BB need to have a word with her .

.

I've seen quite a few scenes where he did and then he circles around , making goading comments followed by "just sayin' "" ( with his hands in ape-like surrender)
I don't know what you are watching
