Pulling the cord out the socket is not a reason to chuck a glass at somebody. Why isn't Walla Walla being voted off the show. Heck, Theo shouldn't feel safe. She turned that on him real quick. She got the tears going and the histroy lesson. Where were the MTV producers then....huh...huh...eww, this show does the borthas wrong. The editing is foul too.

Notice how they showed her receiving the birth certificate establishing her wonderful relationship with the fiance. Then the next thing we know THEO is going OFF! We don't know in what order all that happened. She could of been on the phone all ding-dang day. We just see an innocent lil girl who is happy and sad about her birth certificate and then an out-of-control, insensitive man who is moody.

The day she got the birth certificate and the day Theo pulled the plug are two different days.
UGHHHH!! Why do I watch it!!!

Can some one please help me out.!!!!!!!!!!

What was all of the uproar about, when the girl (theresa I think that's her name, i'LL JUST CALL HER birth certificate girl LOL) was like Theo intimidates her, and he scares her, And then kyle starts taking up for her saying she can't be around males, she's been through alot....????

I am totally clueless.

Because my perception is, If she's has that much problems with Men(I am assuming she was raped, or abused. Because kyle said something to the effect that she has been through things emotionally and physically with guys........) Then why did she audition for a show that she KNEW was going to have male roommates? Please clue me in, so I don't start thinking she's one of those girls that wants sympathy everywhere she goes.

Okay I read the posts, and It cleared somethings up. birth certificate girl name is Tonya. and Walla Walla????

Now why are ya'll calling that girl Walla Walla?? LMBAO

Stop wondering, cause you know that is NEVER going to happen, lol! I think that would be a little too real for them.

I like Theo. He's gagnsta and I really appreciate that about him. He said that he wouldn't support homosexuality and he's stickin' to that. I feel that. Walla Walla got issues and is very needy. Real World is really stank and I hardly watch it any more.

Ditto. Really, what are the chances WALLA WALLA would go to 47th Street, Englewood, or Cabrini? On second thought, that wouldn't have been such a bad idea, it would help her get over her "intimidation" of Black people REAL quick

What I didn't like was the fact that they were trying to make Theo be the bad guy just because he was standing by his convictions. Theo grew up in a religious household with his father being a minister and all, and he is going about what he believes in.

The guy Chris was trying to make it seem that it was just for human rights in general, but that was not the case. It was about gay and lesbian human rights, not just "human rights". I give Theo 2 thumbs up for standing by his belief. He believes in what he believes in and that's that.

Was anyone else laughing at Walla Walla or was it just me? You see how she had Theo's side. Now what I want to know is, what kind of town is Walla Walla that she never met a black person, and doesn't know any gay people?

The problem I have with WALLA WALLA "having Theo's back", is that she was so busy trying to "explain" Theo's religious convictions as the reason why he couldn't condone homosexuality, yet she could only confess to the audience that she held the same belief. My issue is WALLA WALLA, should have been woman enough to say that she held the same belief as Theo to Chris' face, and that she was only going to the human rights meeting to appease the roommates!

She's a fake azz b**ch, and I can't stand her!!

You know what, last season we found out that Mike from RW NY was raised in a home where he was taught that black people were inferior and people were ALL OVER that boy about him and his beliefs. It was no excuse that he had been taught that blacks were inferior, he should know better as a rational adult.

Now I am not one to equate sexuality and race, but I think that people are being really hypocritical here (not you kiml22, but people on this board in general).

Standing by what you were taught means nothing if you were taught to be intolerant and to hate. And for me, that means hating anybody, not just because of color, but because of sexuality, religion or whatever else makes us different as human beings. You can't say that his beliefs are ok because that's what he was taught JUST because this time he happens to be htaing gays and not another race. Hate is hate and intolerance is intolerance.

Same way that Walla Walla should have known that men were going to be on this show, he should have known that gays were going to be on this show- if he was going to have a problem with gay people, or living with a gay person he should not be there. Does he expect his roomate to not live his life because of his beliefs? I don't think so.

APPLAUSE!!!

Exactly!

In MY humble opinion..Theo is either a closet homosexual, or very curious. He talks about how disgusting male homosexuality is entirely TOO much. Convincing himself or his roomates? Hard to tell. Also, I guess I was the only one who found his behavior last week to be extremely rude and out of order. True it was his right to have guests, but it was also his responsibility to make sure they were considerate of his other roommates. How he reacted when the roomates confronted him was very immature also. All he can say is "Shut up, shut up, shut up!"? Imma need Theo to do better. It is one thing to stand by your convictions, it is yet another to act stubborn just to try to appear hard.

As for WW... I think I would have already been kicked off this season for whoopin' it. I have so little tolerance for drama queens/attention-needy people (PG language).

Theo believes that homosexuality is sin and if bases this belief on religious teachings/background. Does his beliefs also include that fornication is a sin also or does he believe that fornication is ok but homosexuality is a sin?

i don't think that Theo is being intolerant. i think he is just sticking to his convictions. mike from the real world, in my opinion, wasn't being intolerable either. he was miseducated and was stating what the beliefs of his father.

i don't believe theo hates chris, he just can't get with his lifestyle. what i actually admire about theo is that he has admitted to not accepting homosexuality but is not letting the fact that chris is gay interfere with his friendship with him. theo said that he likes chris, but not homosexuality and i can understand that.

and, i think chris is almost waiting for theo to "act up" so he can dig in his isht. i think he wants theo to say something or act out of aggression and intolerance for the homosexual lifestyle so that he can have the opportunity to plex.

so one is "standing by his convictions" while the other was "miseducated"??? The only difference between these two men is who they were taught to hate.

Like I said before, teh fact that he is talking about gays instead of blacks, whites or asians does not make it any less wrong.

That is the problem I have with religions sometimes- people will use them to justify any hatred or prejudice and feel like they have a righteous reason to be prejudiced.
