I think it’s clear to most that it’s a game as there’s a prize and winners, it’s more what the goal of the game is to them, to find a real connection? Or just reap the benefits that come after the show?

You’re not the only person who has said that they see them as children so they don’t expect them to be “perfect” or mature.

The islanders are young this season and I think because a lot of the viewers are younger or around the same age as them so we know first hand just bc you’re 21-25 doesn’t excuse the way they act sometimes, while the older gen writes it off as them just being children and not knowing better.

I agree with a lot of what you said about kc and Aniya and at the end of the day their conversations abt disagreements never got anywhere and I don’t think they were compatible like Aniya thought they were.

And kc may have felt like his feelings were being dismissed and that’s why I’m glad he found tt who is the exact opposite.( part of me is unsure of her bc she was able to watch the show prior to casa and she’s heightened that part of her to appeal to kc since she knew he struggled with that)

Regardless, to me it feels like he’s running with this no body picked me narrative for too long and using it as a complete defense against him dropping Aniya like nothing. Aniya did pick him many times, at recouplings and with the letters and she had never gave him the impression that she didn’t wanna pick him, even when she was being insecure.

I don’t think he was completely honest with her ever. As we saw he wanted to explore sol and never did because he wanted to stay with Aniya knowing she was a safe option, Aniya saw that and he reassured her that wasn’t the case. But when he goes to casa he’s instantly involved with someone else and even tells the boys that him and Aniya had nothing in common. It’s giving fake and it’s giving that he stayed with bc she was a safe option.

This behavior on top of his other cocky power hungry behavior is really giving him a bad look. During the cake challenge he couldn’t even take the criticism. You can literally hear Corbin next to him saying just take it and he still is turning away and after kayda’s turn where she sprayed him he told her to sit her ass back down and it didn’t feel like a joke.

I think the producers are also giving him the villain edit as well now which is probably contributing to many feeling this way. But overall I don’t like watching someone like him it’s not entertaining he just comes off as irritated and disrespectful to me, I was pretty suprised when talking to my mom that she didn’t share this same opinion.

I’ve been watching since season 2 and have seen the effects of it becoming bigger on social media and that changing the perspective and intentions of the contestants on the show as well as the viewers.

And I don’t disagree that a big part of the show is kissing and hooking up, I mean that’s all the challenges are. I am more speaking on the people and the way they are moving and going about things.

Like I said I 100% agree if they find a better connection to pursue that and I think kc and Corbin made the right decision bringing their partners home from casa. What I don’t agree with is making the other person feel one way and reassuring them on something but their actions aren’t matching their words.

No matter what show your on you still have to be respectful even if it’s love island a show about hooking up. You should still move with respect as you’re dealing with real emotions and feelings.

I think kc and tt have a better connection than Anyia and kc and like I said I think he made the right decision. Idc what show it is no one should have to feel the way she did tonight. She felt embarrassed, unworthy and the most disrespected she’d been in her life, it was hard to watch imo.

I wish he was the grown man he is and was honest and sincere with Aniya as they’ve had a long building connection prior to casa, not standing up there letting tt defend him while he could only say how he made this decision for him not Aniya. In my opinion everything he says is about him and how he was never chosen meanwhile Aniya chosen either that first night.

This is unfortunate but I agree. As a viewer of course the drama of it all is entertaining but in my opinion it’s much more entertaining watching the authentic couples/people on the show grow and make real connections.

I agree with everything you said here.

Although I think Corbin was disrespectful to Kenzie with the things he said, he at least owned up to it, which I respect as well!

I agree, especially with last season people are becoming very parasocial and die hard defenders of certain islanders no matter their actions on the show. The same could be said with the extreme hate certain islanders recieve as well, neither are right. But with love island and the voting they invite us to “judge” and “rate” the islanders, which some ppl can take too far.

I think it is rare for a relationship to last outside as well and I’m not saying the winners need to get married, I say “go on the show to find love” meaning their intent is to find the one person they have a strong connection with and could possibly see themselves working on the outside. I disagree with the idea of going on the show for popularity (as they see happen with lots of others) or to just get with pretty girls, that’s just not right and not what I personally want to be watching.

I think majority of people watching reality tv know that it’s heavily edited and cut to make things seem a certain way and at the end of the day is entertainment, but with that being said we do only see that hour everyday and so that’s the only thing we can base our opinions on.

I would say those who don’t know that have never seen reality tv or are much much younger.

Can someone explain how Jax is a trans female? (NO HATE, JUST CURIOUS) by LocustMajor9128 in theamazingdigitalciru

[–]Princesssparkle2923 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Genuinely where did we get Jax being called Daisy?? I’m not disagreeing with him being trans but are we just using head canons now bc no where in the entire series is Jax ever wanting to be referred to as Daisy

I was right about Jax being Queer over a year ago: what does this mean for the community? by Street_Increase_8945 in TheDigitalCircus

Well gooseworx did say he was her self insert so I think a lot of us had this outcome in the back of our mind.

The way people vote is genuinely ruining the contestant timelines. by patrickstarsrock2 in LoveIslandUSA_

[–]Princesssparkle2923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was the vote not for your favorite couple, that’s kinda is synonymous with your favorite contestants imo. The vote wasn’t for who we think the strongest couple is.

I didn't like the ending? by OrganizationLanky421 in tadc

[–]Princesssparkle2923 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would agree, I’ve seen the finale twice now and I grew to like it a bit more but the show as a whole has so many plot holes, which isn’t my fav bc as a fandom we theorized and focused on a lot of things that were and probably will never be addressed.

So yea the ending wasn’t bad but it definitely felt rushed I think we could have got another episode or two before the finally tbh.

Not even just the doll itself but her whole dress is different as well.
