I mean I don’t get my nails done regularly but I would if I went on a reality tv show.. lol. It came off a little pick-me, but at the end of the day it was probably a good thing to let be known since that was the question the girls were being asked?
Ii definitely was pick-me vibes, she did it to BOTH Joy and Grace. She let both of the girls answer the question, and used both of their answers to her advantage. "I'm a homebody" was her pick-me over Grace and "I'm not materialistic" was her pick-me over Joy.
Sure but if that’s that true for her then she truly was just answering the question that was being asked, which is valid. I don’t know this girl at all so have no judgements and can see how it could come off, but I generally think people are overthinking it. I grew up in a small town and don’t get my nails done often so if someone asked me about that I would tell them that is true for me.
I’m confused why so many people are downvoting lol maybe it’s an age difference thing. I have a friend that is beautiful and single and this happens to her sometimes and she never thinks it’s that weird. In fact, she enjoys it because she sees it as them shooting their shot and if she’s interested in them then it is a first move on their part. Clearly not everyone sees it that way though so I suppose you’ll run the risk of her thinking it to be weird.
Right. They did it during Peter’s season as well when they brought Rachel Lindsay out to read racist comments which felt like a bit like trauma porn I remember. None of these moments seemingly circumvented the MAGA subset of bachelor nation though from sending racist vitriol. They provided a safe space this time to Rachel to discuss it and so I question what more production can do at this point because as you’ve said, it’s been addressed before.
Yes exactly! AND how could I forget them literally firing the 20 year long host and face of the show over racism. I truly don’t know what more they can do. The only thing I can think of it maybe stop trying so hard to make “villains” but that’d also take away the drama and they’d lose numbers.
They need to condemn it verbally outright by naming it by the R word. Thats where they get it wrong. Consistency. According to some people here, Jesse conflating criticism with racism as if theyre both the same thing is what rubbed folks the wrong way, and then calling what the audience was saying “strong opinion” when Rachel had addressed the racist comments she received. He should’ve separately and directly condemned the racism by its name. I think they made an effort by providing Rachel a space to speak but they should b consistent.
This is all so true BUT they have chosen their own picks over the audience many times and many times it resulted in angry fans and less views so you’d think at some point they are going to have to listen to the viewers if they wants the show to stay relevant. I hardly watched and most certainly didn’t care about the show for several of the latest seasons because they chose people we did not want
Yes, I’m not saying it’s ever right but the hate for Rachel I found especially jarring. When we see people bully “villains” like Sydney or Lea you can point to how they may have brought it on themselves (I don’t condone bullying them either). All Rachel did was get a rose over Maria. I found the amount of vitriol for her for something so small and that was Joey’s decision horrible.
Yeah good point. I’m not disagreeing that her hate has been horrible I’m just saying it’s not Maria’s fault. We don’t need to pit them against each other more than people have already been doing.
Oh I’m not trying to imply it’s Maria’s fault. I can see how my original comment could come off that way. I just meant that people were so obsessed with Maria that they literally couldn’t handle the fact that Rachel got picked over her and then so many of her stans went on the attack.
Matt has posted vids and stories from her bedroom. I do wonder if they live together but have separate bedrooms... because honestly we need to normalize that shit. Sharing a bed is hard.
Absolutely! I know several peoples parents who have separate bedrooms due to sleeping issues or what not. Sometimes I think about it with my boyfriend because he snores so damn loud 😂
I think it’s really not that deep. Like some have said in these comments, we usually assumed that’s just because those are a high traffic bathroom and not that all toilets should be that way. I wasn’t intentionally reeking havoc on the sewage system. Now that I know better, I’ll no longer do it.
I am not a Chris Harrison fan by any means but I’m in the camp of the producers wanted to get rid of him. I highly doubt they weren’t aware of the controversial statements he was going to make and encouraged it so they’d have a valid reason to get rid of him without too much of an uproar lol there is no way what he said/did wasn’t approved beforehand.
the producers this year really did not care for Rachel. you can tell based on how little they show of her, except for the parts where she could be interpreted as being spicey and this part of her date just completely gone. in the end, it seems they were only interested in elevating 2 women: Daisy and Maria.
I mean that’s what they do every season, only focus on a few specific girls. There’s not enough time to show everyone’s personality and I’m sure producers knew Daisy would be a fan favorite bc of her disability and that Maria would be a controversial topic because of her big personality. What we HAVE seen from Rachel is pretty boring so I’m sure her takes just didn’t have as much reality tv type content. I really don’t think it’s as deep as people are pushing.
She cannot be the Bachelorette. Pls. She is so boring. I’m sure she’s a lovely person in real life. Pick Jenn. Either of the Kelseys. Maria. Anyone else please.
I won’t say anything about Olivia’s answer but the fact that Sam didn’t even make it through night one and still has managed to befriend everyone in this franchise amazes me. She even dated three guys from the show. She must be either a really great social climber or a really nice person lol.
Mikey Planeta, Spencer Robinson from Tayshia’s season and I guess she maybe dated Aaron S. from BiP, but they broke up by the time it aired. Not sure if that was real or not.
I’m not complaining but I feel like the only reason she made it this far is because the providers wanted to add more diversity to the show. But loving the representation!!
She has had plenty of snarky comments and was best friends with the bullies. I’m not saying she’s a mean girl but I get why some say she has that energy.
I love Maria because I feel like I AM Maria. I’ve been so blindsided by drama I legitimately feel like I don’t cause but find that my personality tends to rub people the wrong way. I put a lot of effort into be kind and mature and feel so anxious in social settings where I’m meeting large groups of women (like starting new jobs) but I feel like no matter how much I try it’s just like.. how Maria said. She’s the bad guy when she talks she’s the bad guy when she doesn’t. I’ve just felt this so many times and I’ve never seen it so accurately depicted on this show from a woman I resonated with so much
I feel this way too! I have a big personality and it sometimes rubs people the wrong way no matter how hard I try to be kind and likable. It’s great to see that representation.
My thought is most mountain peaks/ high elevation areas are probably usually pretty cold right? So people were not likely at the top of a mountain peak when the pocko occurred?
Emerson acted like she could care less about make up and get her nails done but literally had her nails done? 🤦♀️😆
I mean I don’t get my nails done regularly but I would if I went on a reality tv show.. lol. It came off a little pick-me, but at the end of the day it was probably a good thing to let be known since that was the question the girls were being asked?

While she is younger, I feel she will outgrow him. He seems too obsessed with model good looks and lacks on the intellectual side.
What makes you say this? She’s clearly his strongest connection and the new woman he brought back is a literal doctor.. lol
Actually, she isn't a doctor, lol she is an assistant. Either way, I think both are too smart for Ty.
Dang I must’ve misheard lol but I agree!
Joey as a bachelor =A Joey’s season= B
This is so accurate
maria is mic’d because that’s her bestie!
Or they just wanted to throw everyone off
Listen I love Jenn but I do not think she can carry a season 😢
Right. They did it during Peter’s season as well when they brought Rachel Lindsay out to read racist comments which felt like a bit like trauma porn I remember. None of these moments seemingly circumvented the MAGA subset of bachelor nation though from sending racist vitriol. They provided a safe space this time to Rachel to discuss it and so I question what more production can do at this point because as you’ve said, it’s been addressed before.

I think that’s a great idea
Yeah the people in Maria’s comments and the ones in daisy’s are complete different generations lmfao
I’m 29 and I follow them both 🤷🏼♀️ I don’t comment on their posts though lol
How are 500k people following and finding daisy interesting…
I honestly think it has to do with the fact that she already had a following online being known as a cochlear implant advocate.
I have a feeling the producers want to stick to their guns recently and not let fans dictate the lead.
This is all so true BUT they have chosen their own picks over the audience many times and many times it resulted in angry fans and less views so you’d think at some point they are going to have to listen to the viewers if they wants the show to stay relevant. I hardly watched and most certainly didn’t care about the show for several of the latest seasons because they chose people we did not want
Yeah I wonder about this too! It seems like they’re trying to make their mark and usher in a distinct post-Fleiss era.
Agreed! This season has been noticeably different than what we are used to (in a good way for the most part) so hopefully they keep that up!
Yes, I’m not saying it’s ever right but the hate for Rachel I found especially jarring. When we see people bully “villains” like Sydney or Lea you can point to how they may have brought it on themselves (I don’t condone bullying them either). All Rachel did was get a rose over Maria.

I see what you mean!
Matt has posted vids and stories from her bedroom. I do wonder if they live together but have separate bedrooms... because honestly we need to normalize that shit. Sharing a bed is hard.
Absolutely! I know several peoples parents who have separate bedrooms due to sleeping issues or what not. Sometimes I think about it with my boyfriend because he snores so damn loud 😂
I always wonder if some contestants are on these threads lolol
Oh they for sure are lol
If you have a complex about other women getting picked over you why do you go on The Bachelor 😭 (This goes for everyone who has said that)
I think most people would not want others picked over them. It’s human nature.
Manny
Oh I agree that the signs that kind of dance around the topic by saying "no feminine products" can definitely be a bit confusing.
I think it’s really not that deep. Like some have said in these comments, we usually assumed that’s just because those are a high traffic bathroom and not that all toilets should be that way. I wasn’t intentionally reeking havoc on the sewage system. Now that I know better, I’ll no longer do it.
Laughing at the thought of someone giggling as they flush their tampon to reek havoc upon all the public toilets.
Yes I agree, I hope this knowledge will spread!
I am not a Chris Harrison fan by any means but I’m in the camp of the producers wanted to get rid of him. I highly doubt they weren’t aware of the controversial statements he was going to make and encouraged it so they’d have a valid reason to get rid of him without too much of an uproar lol there is no way what he said/did wasn’t approved beforehand.
Well, that’s just a different opinion about what makes a good bachelorette.
Yeah I felt that’s what made her season so iconic tbh lol
the producers this year really did not care for Rachel. you can tell based on how little they show of her, except for the parts where she could be interpreted as being spicey and this part of her date just completely gone. in the end, it seems they were only interested in elevating 2 women: Daisy and Maria.

What we HAVE seen from Rachel is pretty boring so I’m sure her takes just didn’t have as much reality tv type content. I really don’t think it’s as deep as people are pushing.
Maria's hometown is like a couple hours drive from Niagara where they filmed
Yes but that’s very very far from where Rachel lives and makes sense to me that they didn’t go to either of their actual homes.
She cannot be the Bachelorette. Pls. She is so boring. I’m sure she’s a lovely person in real life. Pick Jenn. Either of the Kelseys. Maria. Anyone else please.
I vote Lexi
We are swimming in other candidates, and yet, I fear for our fate.
I’m hoping they see how much the public doesn’t want that and go for someone else😂😂
I won’t say anything about Olivia’s answer but the fact that Sam didn’t even make it through night one and still has managed to befriend everyone in this franchise amazes me. She even dated three guys from the show. She must be either a really great social climber or a really nice person lol.
Wait who all did she date from the show??
Mikey Planeta, Spencer Robinson from Tayshia’s season and I guess she maybe dated Aaron S. from BiP, but they broke up by the time it aired. Not sure if that was real or not.
Oh dang had no clue!
I’m a rachel fan and i thought maybe it was just the edit, but i really don’t feel anything between them i’m sorry!!
I’m not complaining but I feel like the only reason she made it this far is because the providers wanted to add more diversity to the show. But loving the representation!!
Does anyone think about if they went on a show like this, their parents would be way too awkward? Like I’d have to bring in friends to buffer lmao
Yes and I’d be terrified the internet would make fun of them 😭
saying rachel has “mean girl vibes” is such a lame excuse to dislike her. she’s not actually done anything mean
She has had plenty of snarky comments and was best friends with the bullies. I’m not saying she’s a mean girl but I get why some say she has that energy.
See these are the moments where I say Rachel has a little bit of mean girl to her. I said this when she made a snarky comment about Maria to Lea
Yes especially because she was besties with all of the bullies.
I love Maria because I feel like I AM Maria. I’ve been so blindsided by drama I legitimately feel like I don’t cause but find that my personality tends to rub people the wrong way. I put a lot of effort into be kind and mature and feel so anxious in social settings where I’m meeting large groups of women (like starting new jobs) but I feel like no matter how much I try it’s just like.. how Maria said.

I feel this way too! I have a big personality and it sometimes rubs people the wrong way no matter how hard I try to be kind and likable. It’s great to see that representation.
How do we feel about Daisy?
I’m just confused why they haven’t showed her more if she’s supposedly F1
I know I’m going to find my wife. Ok sure Joey That’s worked out so well for this franchise
A lot of people are still together from the show 🙂 seems like more from BIP and the bachelorette than the bachelor
Maria is joeys Corinne .
Maria >>> Corrine
I like their chemistry but don’t think they’d make it as a couple long term.
I hope she is the queen of paradise 👑
God she’s stunning
Ugh I wanna be friends with her
My thought is most mountain peaks/ high elevation areas are probably usually pretty cold right? So people were not likely at the top of a mountain peak when the pocko occurred?
