BB9: SO, should SARA have fought back??

Question

i'm just wondering because i can't see anybody saying all that stuff to me and me taking it. I would have given him as much for, and more...

so does anybody else here think that she should have and/or you would have handled to situation differently?

Answer 1

Sara Folino has subterranean self esteem and Rex, Mo and Darnell have recognised that fact and are taking advantage of it by feeling free to say what they like to her with no comeback from her. I question the wisdom of a woman of 27 years playing "truth or dare" in the first place, I may have been hideously precocious but we played that game at 13. Also, I cannot work out why she feels the need to answer Rex, Mo and Darnell at all when they ask her deeply personal questions. My first instinct would be to tell all three of them to take a flying f**k at themselves and my second would be to ridicule them.

It's all very well for the dwarf ginga to apologise later when the girl has been upset by his malicious comments, but why upset her in the first place? Rex is an immature insecure bully, a control freak who will have to continually find younger girlfriends because they will all outgrow him mentally, if not physically. Look at the way he began listing the things he had bought for his girlfriend, that is not the act of a generous man, it is about control. Mo has no respect whatsoever for women, they are goats to him, livestock, and he would not even see the beauty of it if some kindly girl showed him her lady garden, the medieval fool. Darnell has known nothing but rejection his whole life and when Sara gave him a knock-back she became the sum of all his fears. He is a well-balanced person only insofar as he has a chip on both shoulders. The man is a seething pit of discontent at life and none of it is his fault, it is all the others.

But the real snake in the grass is Kathreya, she has been the consummate strategist up to now. Listening here, whispering there, staying below the radar, cookie love cookie love and mangling the language inconsistently, you my frien'. But now, the end is near and her naked and repulsive avarice is beginning to show, she cannot hide it any longer.

If anyone reading this can imagine it was her sitting opposite Sara last night, what do you think she would have picked? If I had to go up against Rex, Mo, Darnell or Kathreya, I would have picked "Take" in the sure and certain knowledge that they would have, too. I would get immense satisfaction from denying them the £25,000, even though it meant neither of us got anything.

Answer 2

She did fight back to a point, would have been good if someone else had stuck up for her as well though. I mean it’s hard to continue to fight back when 3 people are ganging up on you.

Answer 3

I would have gone mental - however I think it shows strength of character by just ignoring it - she's come out looking better.

Answer 4

i know i would've done but if she did i doubt big brother would've said anything to darnell and rex because they only ever say something if the person gets upset or cries

Answer 5

Yes,maybe she should've,but i just don't think Sara likes confrontations.Rex and Darnell both deserved a smack in the mouth.

Answer 6

I'm a hot head, I would have punched Darnell in the mouth. Sara is obviously a lot calmer and more sensitive.  

Answer 7

us women get a bad name from those girls using crocodile tears to win hearts in the BB house...i was proud of Sara! She didnt cry when BB initially called her into the diary room...of course, she did have a cry later that day but she didnt round up all housemates and create a big scene like Jen did.

Answer 8

If it were me I would have gone mad!  They were laughing at her and they could not see that she was hurt!

I think she is so forgiving and I admire her for that.  

Answer 9

SARA 2 WIN!!  

Answer 10

Maybe you would have fought back instinctively because it was not your intention to manipulate the situation... in order to stay in the house... its all about public sympathy..  

Not very smart of you... you wouldn't last as long as she has... she played it well.. it was all about nicotene really anyway

dR bad

but when you left in the 1st week... at least you would be able to look in th mirror..

Answer 11

no he would have got a smack in his face, if it was me, then he would have got a smack in his face ages ago when he made her cook his food and then tell her he just wanted to see her make it, the man is a pig... she handled that situation calmly as well.

such a shame that she is up and not him!!

Answer 12

Darnell acts like a yout he loves off her but e dunno how to talk to girls and he chats so much shiit to explain himself which I never get but find funny Sarah is just a breader and she aint a person who can fight back making her a good victim I aint a girl so I wouldnt know how to handle that from her shoes but she did a good job at looking the victim remember people in BB act over polite except Darnell who is fd inda head and Rex who couldnt give a shitt cause he has money any ways
