Housemate #4 - Ben

And I should say that it's because that it perpetuates the gayboys-are-weak stereotype. Some men love that (e.g. ladyboys, when taken to extreme) because they can still be the "man" whilst being with someone else who has a dick but isn't "really" a man, thus preserving their own masculinity. I think that extends into men who prefer girly gay guys.

I think Ben from BBAU last year is much more stereotypically girly than this Ben tho. And by that I mean bitchy/queen type.

Thats what i thought

My female cousin is a lesbian. She hates the stereotypical ones with the short hair, doc martins etc type thing.
Shouldnt we though be interested in their character and not their type?

this leads me to the question: If you guys dont like the stereotype of the girly gay and just want a regular manly man...would it really matter if they had a gay guy in there? If he isnt going to be a stereotype and just come across as any guy would..how does his sexuality become relevant?

Sorry, trying to be sensitive here :-)

Very good point 10th Doctor !

We always complain that they are a stereotype gay in the house (except that country one)

Hey thanks I'm new here as well. I was wondering how to reply with a quote. I hope that Ben is not the only "weirdo" or "real person" in the house this year. So far out of the 4 HMs that have been revealed Ben is by far the most interesting to me. Hope he talks about the newtons as much as Bradly talked about batman lol.

Well, I take it all back, aside from the wig suggestion. He's very sweet. And any man who has a flanelette pj collection is my kind of guy.
 
I'm a gay person, what I've found is that some fem gay guys who are so naturally fem are better to be there feminine selves, otherwise they come across as fake and too try hard as well as self hating. I mean can you imagine Ben purposely acting macho, imagine how silly that would be. Gay guys like Ben are better to just stay the way they are. Just be yourself.

Please, he knows what Facebook is. He also had Grindr, shame on me for removing him from my favourites list otherwise I would have had a story to post! I only removed him because he lied and said he got no where at the auditions. Bastard

I also remember seeing him on Grindr, but i kind of blocked him pretty promptly. *boom* suddenly i'm a superficial bitch.

I tend not to block guys... I just tell the annoying ones off and they end up blocking me... The ones I get bored talking to usually end up getting the point...
 
Ben is weird & has a Bert Newton fetish!

He needs to stay while we get rid of the boring promo models etc.
 
I hope you guys like Ben because I suspect that he will stick around for a while, if not to the end.
 
I like him but BB manipulated him to get cheered by the viewers

Put 3 into the poor house

Put ben into the rich house

LOL.
That's so harsh!

I'll watch him with interest, he's totally overwhelmed at the moment, see if he adapts or reacts.
 
Posted this in a thread about Tim because I have no idea what these people's names are yet. Great start to Big Brother!

PASTE:

This effeminate mess should be stomped out like a flaming bag of dog shit. Honestly, I got up and left the room whenever the camera followed it mincing about carrying on like some raving lunatic that had just been shot up with a whole heap of estrogen and SSRI's.

I actually feel physically ill whenever it performs for the camera.
 
As soon as he came on yesterday I felt like Ive seen him before somewhere on telly. Anyone have that feeling as well? Im sure He's been on tv before.
anyway, because of that I think he's putting it on a bit, like really? really? why channel 9? If he really was like that why would he want to come on BB and why would they put someone on there like him (if he was for real) where he will be made fun of so easily. He cant really be like that right?
 
oh for goodness sake, he's putting it on; it's all an act !

... and he's not half as good an actor as fake married lass.

ghods, she's a natural and so quick at putting it on too ! In the diary room she took immediate control of the situation and not only didn't hesitate in putting out all sorts of signs of affection but also made it look totally natural and everyday.

A little bit spooky if not scary, like, how would you know if she was ever being real with you ?

Makes Ben (is Ben the bald guy with glasses BTW ... I'm yet to put that many names to faces ?) look like an amateur by comparison.
