I have read on here on how the Jack and Jackson are disgusting and questioned how they raised? I agree 100% but what about these women who sleep around with guys they hardly know. It seems like BB look to cast weak women dependent on male players. probably a reason an all womens alliance could never work. Who are some of the strong women who didn't depend on a guy to get them far? Daniel season 3? Janelle? Don't laugh but I think Rachael is one of the strongest woman who have played. Thoughts?

If a woman wants to sleep around, it's her right and we shouldn't be shaming her for it. None of these guys promised them unicorns and rainbows to get in their pants, so can't get mad at the guys either.
Though, I have to say I hate showmances and I don't want to watch them.

Why are the guys being shamed then? Ya I would be so proud to call one of these people my child! Just cause you have the right to do something doesn't mean you should!

I have seen plenty of places were the men have been shamed. The majority of the time in and outside the house the woman does get blamed but hopefully that is changing some what.

I blame them both.
Guys should show self control and respect
Girls should show some self control and respect.
If nothing else, for their families. I am very curious what type of parents Jackson has. I picture Affluenza kid. (Kid ran over people and got off because of his parents Affluenza defense)
I don't know what I'm trying to say, but, I hope you get it.

the jacks attitude is the problem in this scenario. as far as sleeping together, all adults so fine. but didn't one of the guys sleep with two of the hg? so his shaming might be because after he slept with Kat, he acted like she was beneath him.

I think that they are all adults are should take equal responsibility in their actions. I think the Jacks' attitude sucks but grown women should take ownership of their actions also. I have seen more negative stuff written about the guys - yes, they are despicable, but the girls chose to have sex with them with makes them equally responsible.

Blame production. Production always pushes the showmances.

Yes, women are the objects of more shaming and often blamed for anything that may happen to them.

I don't care if they sleep together what I care about is the attitude the Jack's have about it.
Jackson in particular just seems to be trying to notch his bedpost as much as he can so he has the record in the BB house.

I just read a fictional novel about reality shows but it made me wonder...in this fictional novel there was a "personal contact" clause where cast members got paid "x" amount of dollars for things like onscreen kisses and even bigger amounts for sex (offscreen of course to keep the ratings acceptable for network television). Makes me wonder if shows like Big Brother and The Bachelorette have some of these provisions deep in the secret parts of the contracts.

as far as I know, Jackson is the only person who is sleeping around. the women each just slept with one person, so doesn't seem to be a double standard as far as that goes.
poor taste in any case.

They also sort of pimp out the women. Sis was told to flirt with Nick, to get at Bella.. With Bella leaving, watch what happens there.
Kat was getting mighty close to David, but we never got to see that progress.
And Jackson.. No one is left.. Jess and Nicole are married, right? And Bella was always with Nick.
Jack or Jackson have spoken of turning Christie.
I think if there was a viable option, Jackson might well add to his numbers..
I don't care what people do, but wish it was not on this show, which I once loved.

I didn't think Nicole was married, she's never mentioned it on feeds as far as I know.But I can't see her hooking up with any of the yahoos in the house.

Reading her bio, sounds like she is single. I guess for the sake of the kids she works with, she would not go for the a showmance.

Or maybe Nicole has standards/values which rise above a "showmance".

I don't mean to sound mean spirited or bullying. I feel like there is nothing wrong with consenting adults having a sexual relationship. At the time time I do wonder how some of these people were raised whether they are female or male.
I always end up having so much more respect for the HGs who say they won't hook up in the house or they promised their mom they wouldn't. I do have to wonder how much self respect and self worth they have if they hook up with a stranger while being watched by strangers. Maybe it's me but there are just certain things I wouldn't want my family to see. I personally think both women and men should feel shameful for not being able to have the self control. If a person has no qualms about hooking up with you in front of cameras it does make you wonder how much respect they have for you.
I may have old fashion thinking but if you want someone to respect you, than you need to respect yourself first. The guys come off less than stellar but so do the women for doing it and putting up with it.
I LOVE HGs that don't compromise their standards and morals just for a showmances or hook ups. Yes some showmances can work out but they are few and in.

Consenting adults in BB world is not the same as consenting adults in the real world. Both parties know they are being filmed 24/7 including any shower or under the cover activities. It’s almost porn. Google any sex scenes for BB and you can see the You Tube videos that live forever in cyberspace.
And yes there is a double standard. When the very first BB sex happened even Julie called out the girl during her eviction interview but I don’t remember her ever talking to the guy about it.

And now Kat is sleeping with Nick in the Jury House, so why is Jackson the only one being called disgusting. It takes two to tango.
A lot more sex and partner swapping goes on in the Challenge House and it is acceptable there.
People tend to demonize who they do not like (or want to win)
