Yeah, Joe, and I posted about this on ABC's board. I've decided to move on from the show. I wish Andi the best, probably will catch up with what's going on with her season via the net, but I've lost interest in watching the show. CH's behavior toward Juan Pablo disgusted me.Now, I know that he's just a puppet, probably was under orders to behave as he did. Whatever. Yes, I still like Juan Pablo. Indeed, I was physically attracted first. He's very good looking, and the girls said he's even better looking in real life.
I started watching the Bachelor after Brad's first season. I was dismayed at the way he was treated, simply because he couldn't promise to spend the rest of his life with a person he'd only know for two months. I can line up 25 women in front of you, hunky Joe, but you might not be compatible with even one of them. I'm not going to hold a gun to your head and make you propose to one. What if you're just not feeling it with any of them? Well, it has happened all over again with Juan Pablo.
Honestly, I really feel like it has nothing to do with his lack of expressing, "I love you." I really believe that it all revolves around the anti-gay remark. Hollywood is filled with gays and the LBGT community had every right to be upset with him. He blames in on ESL, and I'm not going to debate that. I don't think he's a bad person. Anyway, TPTB decided that they had to vilify him. So, they started this whole Juan Pablo Doesn't Express Himself campaign. They got more and more momentum, and sucked in a whole lot of lemmings.
The rest of us think for ourselves. We didn't follow the other sheep. I wasn't brainwashed to believe Juan Pablo's such a dirty rotten rat. He's not. He's a nice guy. I will admit that he doesn't have filter and perhaps says inappropriate things. But, just because he chose to go against the (proven to fail) formula of a forced engagement at the end, ABC decided to assassinate his character.
They're the ones who are dirtbags. Juan Pablo isn't.
