Just another indication that most of these people, in stark contrast to the BB1 houseguests, are NOT what I would consider "nice" people.

How sad that the producers thought that they needed to stoop so low as to cast a group of Jerry Springer rejects into the show.

I'm very disappointed the more I watch. Except for Jason, who I respect and like and admire, the rest of those poor souls seem like the doomed of armageddon.

If the CBS producers wanted to make a show which cast a negative light on Americans, this is it.

I'm hanging in there watching, because I paid for the feeds, and I like Jason so much, and am interested in how the best players (Dannielle and Roddy) will do, but this whole thing is getting skankier by the day.

bleh!

"Just don't date or marry anyone who is obsessed with porn! They are messed up big time."

Hey, why do you think I am going to be marrying Jason or a Jason-look-alike? LOL! I would whoop the behind of any crazy significant other that is obssessed with porn. I'll be throwing his behind out real quick, and it will hit real hard. :D I should be his porn. That's enough if he doesn't see what he's got with a nicely shaped, tall and beautiful woman.

Efilon Roddy took a dump? Did he have show and tell afterwards? :O

I'm sorry. I have no excuse.

Oh geeze, I watch porn with my boyfriend. I guess that means he's going to beat and rape me, and that I'm a sociopath, and we're both Jerry Springer trash.

I like Roddy AND I like Jason....the thing is, I believe that Roddy is way more of a typical American male than Jason is.

Guys talk about sex a lot and many watch porn....I think men, as the animals they (we) are, :-) are just a lot more likely to be able to view sex and love in separate lights rather than what many (most?) women (and Jason) do, which is to confine the sex act as that which is to be shared only within loving relationship.

Roddy liking porn is not an indiccator of him being anything more than a typical man. I would even guess that guys who do not like porn at all really just will not admit that they find it sexually stimulating. It's a fantasy thing, that's all.

Hi, Guilty :-)
I'm going to SLEEP today, and have sassy dreams, and they WON'T include BB!
I'm thinking pure thoughts, and intoning 'ohm' to myself
See ya later :-)

Efilon....what color was it? LOL

JMO..watching porn (Roddy) and doing porn (Kiki) are two very different things. Just because Roddy watches it, doesn't mean he wants to date it and bring it home to introduce to his Mother.

That was funny, Efilon. LOL! Well, they say it is rare, but they admit that stress could cause baldness too. Yes, it is primarily caused by a hormone, but there are rare cases of stress-induced baldness. Roddy's own just looks like too much stress of load in his mind, to me at least. LOL! :D It makes me forget about my dislike of him for a moment and feel a little sympathy toward him. And the spot where he's starting to lose hair looks rather suspicious. :D

Roddy's friends pointed out that Chiara would be a girl that Roddy would be attracted to because of the dirty talk. I wish I could remember exactly what was said.

I think his objection to her sex talk was it was on national tv and or the internet. He would have liked her be more discreet with it.

They said so, Sherbear? I thought that they said the opposite. Can anyone verify?

Foodbunny, I would never jump to such a conclusion about anyone. Most people who use porn are harmless- and I say this as someone who has occasionally viewed it myself. Personally I find it less stimulating than boring and depressing (all that frenetic piston-pumping and guys coming all over a woman's face- yuck).

I object to porn because it reinforces and reflects society's sexist values. It turns women- and to some extent men- into objects rather than portraying them as real people. It tells lies about sexuality and shows that women LIKE to be demeaned.

Many people are occasional viewers of porn. It's a multi-billion dollar industry. That it is so popular indicates to me that there isn't enough real sex going on. A guy like Roddy who would rent 12 videos at once, however, probably prefers that to interaction with a real woman. That says a lot to me about him!

I'd rather have someone rent a whole lot of porn than lie to get sex.

There are days when I watch porn where I'm not even interested in having sex, it's just something to watch, and those are usually the days when I watch the most in one sitting.

I don't think we're ever going to agree about this though.

So I'll leave it with I like Roddy, I don't think he's creepy or perfers porn to women, and Asia Carrera is a hero.

I read somewhere that baldness occurs more frequently in men with a lot of testosterone. I'll go research it if you like.

Oregon - I think that was made up by some bald guy that wanted to appear virile. LOL

Just kidding...I read that, too. But I think there are different reasons for baldness....a genetic male pattern baldness, hormones, chemotherapy, alapecia (sp?), etc...

Roddy's is in a pattern like typical male pattern baldness. No biggie, especially for a handsome man with a nicely shaped head like Roddy! :-)

If BB3 was filled with a bunch of Jasons in the house, it would be SOOOOO boring!

I saw the beginning of this and I think everyone is making way too much of the "12 videos at once" thing. If you actually saw him tell the story, it was quite funny and didn't come off as being obsessive.

The story was that he knows this video store where you can rent 12 adult videos at once for like $6.99, but you have to return them the next day. Roddy was joking about how ridiculous this was, like what use are you going to have for 12 porno videos if you can only keep them for a day? So he decided he could take advantage of it by renting the 12 videos and copying them all and returning them the next day. But as he's returning them he runs into some famous screenwriter friend of his who can clearly see him with an armfull of 12 pornos. Now he's embarrassed, I mean, he looks like some sort of porn obsessive to his powerful friend.

My reaction to it wasn't "wow, what a freak" by any means. I thought it was a funny story. In fact, if anything, I wondered if it was too clever a story to be true.

If you didn't actually see the conversation, and are just going by some of the comments in this thread, you might get a skewed opinion about Roddy's porn habits. From what I saw it was a fairly typical conversation between two horny young men.

It sounds like a Seinfeld episode.

That sounds reasonable, Sanfran. Probably lots of reasons for baldness. But I think Roddy has a rectangular-shaped Frankenstein head. That's why he wears that basaball cap backwards--he knows it will take the edge off! I have a thing about forehead shape for some reason.

Efilon

You're right Sanfran. There are lots of reasons for baldness, including all that you mentioned, and yes his looks like the typical male pattern baldness. LOL, I don't care if Roddy is bald, he will still be hot! I like Jason too, but I do agree with whoever said that Roddy is probably the more typical American male. Actually, if you really think about it Gerry is probably the most typical american, male OR female. The rest are just eye candy and intrigue.

And to all who asked. I don't know if Rod took a dump or not but if he did and tried to pull a Chiara (having someone look at it) we would be having dozens on here saying that he was trying to hypnotize that person into not voting for him.

Just trying to bring a little fun into the whole thing here. People seem to get so testy sometimes!

What is wrong with a man watching porn? Plenty of men (and some women) really get into it.

Efilon - "You're right Sanfran. There are lots of reasons for baldness"

Thanks!

"but I do agree with whoever said that Roddy is probably the more typical American male."

Ahem...that would be me again. LOL

Looks like we are pretty much in agreement on this subject!

Grouch, thanks for clearing that up. I didn't get to see it and I really couldn't imagine him being a HUGE consumer of porn.

Crazydog, nothing is wrong with it. My husband and I have been known to rent "porn" once in awhile. It can be kind of fun. Think it was being portrayed here that Roddy was obsessed with it which wouldn't be good I guess.
