It's one thing to discuss the actions of a person, but quite another to say this person is something.

You and I don't know who these people really are or what they really think. Many of us choose our favorites based on what we would use as criteria for choosing our friends. We choose our friends based on their actions, because when we first become friends we don't everything about them. If later we learn something which changes our opinion we usually will back away from that connection.

How many times have we changed our minds about who we want to win this game? Those changes are based on the actions of the person not who they really are.

In the beginning my favorites were Chiara and Marc. Soon I dropped Chiara and moved to Dani, next I dropped Marc and moved to Jason.....on and on and on and on. My changes of opinion were based on their actions. Now I would like Jason and Gerry in the finals, not necessisarily because they have had the best strategy but because of their ability to play nice without saying things that are unacceptable to me.

"We are discussing gerrys whoer scene and how it makes marcy feeel. I personally couldnt care less if gerry is gay bi or a martian."

Really Theo? Well here's some tidbits of your posts.

"I think gerry is bisexual. many people in the theater are liberal about sexuality."

"Do straight guys say these things?"

"I would be shocked if he wasnt bi sexual."

"mr bozack I'm not stereotyping." (This one I find particularly funny)

"Gerry is basically walking around with a shirt that says he wants marcy."

"woody this is gerrys 3rd wife and if he is bi I bet she knows."

"when all is said and done does anyone care if gerry wants marcys package? he isnt going to get it so who cares if he wants it or not."

Sounds like someone cares about whether or not Gerry is bi as they keep bringing it up over and over.

I think its a good time to close this thread.

LOL, Rain, You should be saying that to Roddy...

Just rewind the tape on the last show and you can see I'm not inventing things. You didn't even understand the point I was making. I'm actually offended that they have portrayed Gerry that way on tv...I like the guy for heavens'sake!!

So, chill out!!

Just my opinion, but I don't think this thread should be closed. I asked the original question because I was trying to understand why Gerry thought it was OK to be openly leering into the shower. I was not trying to portray him as bi-sexual.

I think if people have a problem with other posters that they should e-mail each other individually rather than hijack threads and turn them into attacks on each other.

Thank you to everyone who has given their opinions, it does make more sense to me that Gerry has no concept of how his actions may be perceived and that this is how he thinks he can make friends with Marc.

Unfortunately, the message that Spunky posted which drew such rage from Rain was almost verbatim what was said and BB even put that clip in Saturday's show.
I personally like Gerry and found the way he was portrayed on that program disturbing. But, I don't think Gerry is bi.

minnie I was discussing the same topic that was started and others discussed. What would you have wanted me to discuss based on whateveryone else was discussing? Maybe the towels or the soap? Sorry if you have a problem with me discussing marcy and gerry. I will stop now. Maybe you can silence everyone else also. Nobody should be entitled to speak

Closing this thread for a couple hours so people can sit back and take a deep breath...things seem to be getting personal as the thread progresses.

I think Gerry is just oblivious as well.
Go read the interview with Gerrys daughter on SherylBraxton.com It was done in July, I think.
It seems like she see some of the qualities the HGs over react to constantly. (no there is no mention of sexuality)
It is a very good interview, and BTW, yes at least the daughter is sufficietly upset by the nastiness towards her dad, that she has just stopped watching the show and gets her updates from message boards and her friends.
PS Yes Lance...I am breathing normally and feeling pretty calm

Thanks for reminding us about about SherylBraxton.com, Chance. I just read the interview with Gerry's daughter. It was done on August 12 or posted on that date anyway. What a sweet & supportive daughter he has.
IMO, the "shower scene" is being blown way out of porportion. He follows Marcellas around all the time because he feels that he is his friend. He just wanted to talk to the man while he was in the shower is all.

I think that some people want drama so badly that looking at someone doing something that is innocent is portrayed to be sexual harrassment. It has been a quiet few days in the house and people are getting bored, what better way to get entertained than to put Gerry up to ridicule since they know it will get a huge response.hmmmph
I do not believe for one minute that Gerry has designs on Marc. He thinks they are friends, plain and simple.

It is known that Gerry and Marc at the time was talking about the game. Most all the hgs use the BR for Playing Cards and talking and the like. BB has a nack of Twisting things to seem like something else. This editing to make this man married for 28 years a repressed homosexual is sick. What is with BB in this "Public Humiliation" of this man?

I agree with Lovemarc. No matter how much they want to edit something, they can't edit it if it didn't happen. Gerry did say and do all of those things. Now if each time he leered into the shower or said he was the sugar daddy, he preceded each instance with, "let's drive the internet people wild, I'm going to pretend I'm attracted to you", and that was not aired, then yes, that is editing. But we know from the live feeds that was not said.

Bottom line is that Gerry is a curiously strange man.

Well....IMHO...Gerry coulda simply been curious. I mean...there is that very old and tired stereotype about the diffrent size and stuff. He coulda just been checking out wether it was true or not. Grasp the oppertunity so to speak.
