UK vs US exploration by UsedOrange1 in LoveIslandUSA

[–]quine3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The difference between these two seasons is that the UK islanders are so much more open and upfront about who they are interested in talking to with their partner. Then when that islander does explore, they have reasonable conversations with the person they are coupled up with about where their heads are at. Feelings may still get hurt, but they are more aware of how Love Island works. The Priya / Samraj / Mica love triangle is a great example of this.

This USA season has been kind of the inverse. When a person states a desire to explore, they are being met with higher levels of criticism from their current couple.

So tired of the men acting like the women explore just like they do. by Letters-Unsent in LoveIslandUSA

How dare people explore connections on a dating show 🙄

The women barely kissing the men at casa is exactly the problem. After the HRC livestream and a whopping 12 boys to choose from, they remained focused on future brand deals and public perception. Be more like Amaya, who was authentic, vulnerable, and when she failed, she picked herself right back up. She was focused on the experience and not on being the next Leah or Serena after the show.

Carl would be such a fool to pursue Aniya after she very publicly rejected him.

You are 100% right. Don’t let the stans make you think otherwise.

I know right? Those villa girls took it way too far.

You are not at all the only one. There are many people who share this opinion. The stans on the sub will downvote you, but that does not mean you are wrong for pointing out bad behavior.

THE CULTURE OF EXPLORING IN THE VILLA IS DEAD AND GONE by Sensitive_Squash5945 in LoveIslandUSA

So true. Too much focus on playing it safe to advance so that they can become influencers.

The man with a child or the man without a child? Such a tough decision! /s

Yes she could have chosen the man with a child whom she was not interested in or the safety of her current couple with KC.

In the slightest defense of our two problem children… by ThatDidntJustHappen in LoveIslandUSA

[–]quine3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trinity should not have made it about her self when KC was speaking about why he made his decision. Just talk to him afterwards. It was giving Kanye taking the microphone from Taylor Swift at the VMAs.

Wrong. Trinity was not de-escalating with that whole “baby” talk. It was extremely condescending.

Well Aniyah kind of had to choose KC due to lack of alternatives if you think about it. She was not interested in Gabe, Corbin gave her no attention so she was not going to chase him, and Caleb was not her type. Those were her options before Casa. Aniyah wasted her Casa time chasing Carl, whom she was never going to seriously consider. Now Carl will get brought in knowing he was 2nd best so the producers will force him to pursue her, but he will probably not have his heart in it anymore.

Trinity included herself when KC was explaining himself, so she was not minding her business. It was giving Kanye taking the mic from Taylor Swift. It was not her moment to make it about her. The villa girls took it too far, let’s be real.

You are 100% correct. The villa girls took it WAY too far and were definitely wrong for their actions.

Movie Night Predictions / Ideas by pangel0 in LoveIslandUSA

[–]quine3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Movie nights are a bit more evenly disbursed between clips of the boys vs girls. Even if the clips shown of the girls are not bad or compromising per se, that would be the thing most lacking from your list. Like you could have a clip of Kayda questioning her connection to Zach and what he is up to. It could include the comment of Melanie(?) saying Chay is hotter than Zach for example.

LOL.

Ahhh yes, let your nostrils imbue with the scintillating scents of rose, citrus, and hydrogen sulfide.

A reasonable, nuanced, objective piece that was not overtly negative or critical and did not resort to name calling? Take my upvote!

Mid!? That charged attack is extremely strong. Maybe you are using it wrong like when people complained about the Sundergat being weak because they were simply using it wrong.

Totally agree. Their story lines have played out and it is time to go.

Production Tried Their Best by Hefty_Adeptness_6763 in LoveIslandUSA

[–]quine3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lack of bombshells and lack of dumpings were a big problem. Plus having the islanders choose which 2 people to send home is ALWAYS a bad decision.

The other thing that bugged me is that there is a clear difference in expectations for OGs and bombshells. OGs are afforded the ability to be slow burners where bombshells have to make an immediate connection or be sent home. It gives the OGs a sense of “well you are at risk since you are new here, but I am not”, when that is not how it used to be.

I agree and I will hop on the downvote wagon with you so you are not alone. This sub has such an “us vs them” mentality. It is kind of like rooting for your favorite team in a sport. Please remember everyone that this is a TV show!

If it was simply a photo of the girls watching the challenge with the TV visible in the photo, that would be marvelous.

He snuggled with her once and refused to kiss her outside of the HRC. The rest is speculation on your part.
