It's about time I had a go at those young women in the Big Brother house. What the devil is up with them? Why, rather than banding together, have the females instead paired off with the most charmless men on the face of the earth? It's a really sad indigtment of our post-feminist generation that this lot - namely Grace and Imogen, and to a lesser degree, Nikki - find it difficult to conceive of any form of social interaction which doesn't involve a sexual dimension. They're being really foolish too. Eight days of Sezar sexually pestering you is, I imagine, irritating enough, but THREE MONTHS?? She is going to despise him by the end of the show, as you probably would any stranger you sleep with but don't know from Adam. You might meet someone in a bar, see them a few times, and after a month think 'actually you're a dick' and get out of it quicksmart. Imogen, when she inevitably realises this truism about Sezar, won't have the luxury of not returning his calls. And she's got no-one to blame but herself. And GRACE! GRACE? - ironic name considering she has explicitly laid herself out like a fruitcake for Mikey(who is, incidentally, the stupidest man in the British Isles). For god's sake, girls, hold something back why don't you? Not because I believe it's more 'decorous' and 'ladylike' but because you're 20 years old and EVERYONE'S WATCHING YOU. You're going to regret it when you look back, now just STOP IT!
The fact that these two rely on their sexuality to form superficial relationships with the opposite sex speaks volumes about their priorities, their outlooks, their moral frameworks, their ambitions. What they don't understand is that the GBP don't like it when sexual relationships don't ring true. Look at Maxwell and Saskia and their increased sexual activity when they were both put up for eviction last year. And, on the other hand, look at Preston/Chantelle, Helen/Paul, even Michelle/Stu - it can do wonders for your standing in the game if people genuinely believe there's some 'magic' between you. The audience likes nothing more than to watch people fall in love in front of their very eyes. But they also get real angry if they feel like they're being duped or if one or other person appears to be faking it. That's what adult entertainment is for - it shouldn't be part of this sort of programme. Until Imogen cracks that beauty-queen smile she has plastered all over her mug (a smile which becomes particularly rigid when she has to tolerate Sezar's wandering hands every night), and Grace stops bedding Imogen's sloppy second rejects, the future in the house of this pair looks very shaky indeed.
p.s. Lea stuck an electric whisk inside her. Nice.
