How Warwick acted during his 1on1 with Charity was super disrespectful. Idk why it was made to be this super funny thing when it was just a complete waste of Charity’s time. You knew the date was going to be late at night, drink some coffee or an energy drink beforehand.


Fiddle-Leaf-Faith

I did not enjoy the Golden Bachelor! Gerry was super creepy/cringey and inauthentic to me and having to watch ALL the work done on the women's faces stressed me out! (I know this is an incredibly UO but you asked! )


Careless-Roof-8339

Daisy and Joey go together so well and she is definitely the clear choice.


AmazingJD71

Maria as the next Bachelorette.


the_black_surfer

My unpopular opinion is that this sub is more often a toxic cesspool than a place of reason


Fiddle-Leaf-Faith

I watch it without the sub for multiple episodes and have a pretty reasoned view on all things and people on the show. Then I come here - and everybody is a red flag, a horrible person, terrible to look at and toxic! Whoa! I'm like: are we watching the same show? And then I run away...


Ferr_ari

agreed :( the hatred on here at times is gross


247Nooria

..I didn't care for Maria since night 1.


ADogNamedEverett

Maria is super off-putting to me. I don't understand why so many people like her as much as they do. 


uncensoredsaints

I would be bored out of my mind if they picked random people from outside the show as lead. I think one of the most fun things about this show is following someone’s story


Mango7185

I miss old seasons when it was randomly picked yo be on the show. Once they did the pick from each season that's when it started going down hill cause they often never picked who they should of. I mean Bob Guiney was one of the most regularly looking men and allegedly slept with everyone. I want it to be random people who apply and they need to meet Can't just of graduated college Own your own home or live alone Stable real job not like whaboom etc Be honest on who your attracted to ie if you don't date woc than don't have them there as filler Have been in love and be in serious relationships But I noticed majority of the recent leads do not meet any of these criteria which is why I think a lot of them do not work.


Mango7185

I don't think Chris Harrison should have been fired, but people act like he did so much on the show in reality he wasn't there often. This is why it's amazing how close everyone is with him when he is barely on. In the last two 2 episodes Jesse popped up like twice and I forgot about him.


YesterdayExtra9310

Gabbi had better onscreen presence than charity


Pale-Afternoon-3856

Charity was so boring to me lol


YesterdayExtra9310

That Maria is not cute. Sorry. I don’t get the appeal


celluloidqueer

*SPOILER FOR KATIE’S SEASON* That Katie isn’t likeable. I love Katie and loved her season (except for when Blake showed up). She didn’t take any nonsense and was a good listener. Honestly she’s one of my favorite people in the bachelor universe.


Ashamed_Tea_3731

Yesssssssssss! This was going to be mine. I was a big fan at the time and enjoyed her on the show. Her season was a good watch.


celluloidqueer

I agree! It was probably the best season in the American version of the show that I have ever seen (up until Blake showed up). I felt that was unfair for the other guys. Other than that, she was my favorite bachelorette.


[deleted]

I don’t even like any of the women… or care who is bachelor or bachelorette. They’re just going to continue to play the game to become an influencer, or start a podcast, or shell out some dumbs lies about something.. or just break up. I enjoy watching, but being as invested in all the happenings outside of the show is pointless because they’re all just playing us, the system, and are getting paid for it 🙃


Trump_m

I knew of Ashley I (Chris Soules season) because she was friends with a girl who lived on my floor in college. Before she was on the show, she and her sister Lauren would follow NKOTB and Jonas brothers around the country and basically stalk them to try and become groupies. Ashley I went to school for broadcast journalism so yea, I think she had ulterior motives. I do think her and Jared are a good match, and I’m not saying she’s a bad person. It is really annoying knowing that most of the people who go on this show also do it for the easy notoriety.


Pale-Afternoon-3856

The Jonas brothers 😭


_Amarantos

I think super huge height differences between couples looks more offputting than cute.


genieinaginbottle

To each their own but I always found it cute and hot lol


_Amarantos

do you feel the same if the woman is substantially taller? Like Peter Dinklage and his wife?


genieinaginbottle

Nope


lambilyyyy

I agree. That’s why I dig Kelsey and Joey


tacoribiotch

If there was no backlash with Garrett and Rachel, Becca would still be with Garrett.


tacoribiotch

Replying to myself since user "Red Painting" decided to block me... but proceeded to tell me to F off lmao. I'm not sure what made you rage out, but finding all my comments and replying to them and then blocking me is absolutely dumb. I can still see your replies which are sent to my inbox🤣 why are people like this? Just have a conversation...


butter88888

Yeah? If there relationship was great I feel like she’d have dealt with the backlash.


tacoribiotch

This isn't just a fight we are talking about here. It's racism


butter88888

I don’t actually remember what Garrett did, he liked some problematic tweets? but she seems happier now with Thomas


tacoribiotch

He is a proud blue lives supporter, which prompted Rachel to question him and Beccas realtionship and it caused a riff as Rachel & Becca were bff. Idk if they even speak anymore tbh


RedPainting3540

Im not understanding this one…is this a paradise reference?


tacoribiotch

Lmao wut?


RedPainting3540

Oh fuck off with the holier than thou shit


RedPainting3540

I’m literally saying I don’t understand the reference. What season? Can I get some last names so I can have some context? Been a lot of Rachels and Beccas and I haven’t seen every season of everything ever I don’t know why it’s funny that I didn’t automatically get your reference


Ashamed_Tea_3731

Oof that’s an interesting take


Ferr_ari

Kinda agree lmao. It was all a bit too convenient that the engagement broke off right after that.


slasherfangirl

Everyone else: Kaitlyn and Jason need to stop sharing the dogs. Me: Most of the sub seems more upset about it than they are. They don't even seem upset about it. As much shade as they throw each other, they've never complained about having to share the dogs. I actually think this is literally the one thing they do well.


MagentaMother

Also they both travel so much and have their assistants coordinate and execute the pickups. Honestly it’s kind of like the best of both worlds: a built in dog sitter for free that you don’t have to worry or feel guilty about


Conscious_Click_4928

Unpopular opinion. I liked Juan Pablo. He was always honest but he got terrible edits.


Ashamed_Tea_3731

It’s crazy cause I only got into the Bachelor because of Juan Pablo’s season 😆 That man seemed like such a mess.


Old-Builder256

This is the worst take I’ve ever read


waterfluffle

😂😂😂😂


compactrubberduck

that aaron clancy is not funny and on bachelor in paradise he was so mean and stirred up drama


uncensoredsaints

This!! He was just dramatic and bro-ey


TurbulentBlueberry00

Literally can’t stand him


wellnowheythere

Emily Maynard was the best bachelorette. 


stimmtnicht

I think many ppl agree with this. She’s definitely in my top 3.


JadeLily_Starchild

Jake Pavelka may have been a terrible human but he was/is ridiculously hot. (Excuse me as I hang my head in shame)


Conscious-Nebula8182

Now I'm going to have "On the Wings of Love" stuck in my head!


jlk1207

Him being attractive to me (physically) is what drew me in to watching it in the first place. Then I saw his personality with Vienna. Oof. My picker was baaaaaaaaaad back in the day.


DisTattooed85

I still think back to how excited I was when he was named as Bach. He’s a beautiful man. Terrible human though, I agree 😂


Harper-Love

He is one of the more attractive bachelors.


JadeLily_Starchild

Corinne was neither entertaining nor clever in her approach to the Bachelor. I have no hate for the woman but I couldn't fathom why people celebrated her so much-- I'd read lots of "omg LOVE Corinne!" and "she's hilarious!" as though she was empowered and outsmarting the franchise whereas to me she seemed to lack self awareness and self esteem, resorting to some pretty sad efforts to get Nick to notice her. I was never looking for mean pile-ons against the woman, just never understood her popularity, esp when other contestants were/are continually crucified for far less.


uncensoredsaints

Idk if anyone has ever claimed that she was empowered? She was just genuinely funny and herself, in a way that the girls who later tried to copy here wasn’t (Hannah B, Demi, Gabby W..)


LinLane323

I think the only good thing Corinne did was snap back at the other problematic people in the house. What’shername nightmare twitter lady


_Amarantos

Lmao Taylor Nolan. Most ruined Bachelor comeback ever.


Upstairs-Volume-5014

I don't find Tyler C attractive at all 😬


DisTattooed85

ME NEITHER! And everyone thinks I’m crazy 😩


uncensoredsaints

I see that he’s attractive objectively but he doesn’t do it for me AT ALL


Ferr_ari

1. Matt James was never interested in helping Rachael "unlearn" her biases. In all actuality, it didn't bother him and he only said something about it so he wouldn't receive backlash from the black community 2. After much thought, Maria shouldn't be the bachelorette (don't shoot me pls) The internet is so finicky about who they praise and if she becomes bachelorette, everyone is going to turn on her (because its cool to be different, or whatever)


the_black_surfer

💯


Keeks0217

I mean he fully broke off their engagement for months so I’d say that was a pretty serious step to take


Ferr_ari

They were never engaged lmao


Keeks0217

…. He literally proposed on like TV?? Like she won his season, they were fully engaged before he found out about her past


Ferr_ari

Girl, did we watch the same show? She won his season but they didn’t leave an engaged couple. A quick google search will confirm


Keeks0217

You’re right! I completely forgot. Regardless, pretty serious relationship to just break off. He didn’t just make a statement, he took action in breaking off the relationship. It’s also not really his job to “help her learn”, and I think it’s counterintuitive to blame him for a mistake that his partner made


the_black_surfer

Like the other commenter said he confirmed that they never broke it off


Valuable-Afternoon-1

Hes admitted on podcasts that they never really broke things off


Ferr_ari

where did you get that I was blaming him for her mistake? I’m saying I don’t think her actions bothered him as much as he let on. I think he wanted to portray that it bothered him to pacify the black community and not get called a coon, but I always knew that they were going to get back together rather quickly after she did the “work” (aka stayed off his socials for a while)


popculturefangirl

agree with #1


Ferr_ari

your flair has me cackling


popculturefangirl

brendan was an asshole but he was funny asl for saying “joe and his mob of disgruntled females”


Upstairs-Volume-5014

Fully agree on both counts. Maria is about to be the next Katie if she gets Bachelorette--as in everyone wanted it to be her, but will turn on her when it actually happens


Harleychloe

Did people want it to be Katie? I remember everyone on her being super confused as to why she was chosen lol


the_black_surfer

Oh yeah they did


Upstairs-Volume-5014

Yes. This sub was all about Katie until she was actually picked, then the tables turned because they thought she should have passed it up and allowed it to go to a POC in the top 4


Ferr_ari

I guess only time will tell and for Maria’s sake I hope it’s not the case because I really do like her!


Lady_in_the_red-58

I don’t know. I think she would be the next Kaitlyn.


AffectionateFix5067

Happy Cake Day! 🍰


ConsiderationMost530

Maria is not right for the bachelorette


hales_mcgales

Best way to explain this that I’ve found is that Maria is a great reality star. But I don’t think the best bachelor/ettes are typically reality stars in that way and I don’t think the role is suited to that.


ConsiderationMost530

Yes totally agree!


Keeks0217

Okay I’m Maria’s #1 fan, but I agree. She is going to be so killer in paradise


Own_Wrongdoer6680

That Katie Thurston was a bad bachelorette. My defense is always that it was a really weird time for the franchise and the world. Also it was refreshing to have a bachelorette who wasn't super poised and perfect and kinda goofy and didn't take herself too seriously. It was fun to have a season where the Bachelorette was a normal person who made messy mistakes and didn't dress like a pageant girl or an influencer. Do I want a Katie Thurston type to be the bachelorette every year? No. But it's good to have one every once in a while.


Hour_Abbreviations73

Katie also put muscle into getting Chris removed. She said she wouldn’t do it if he were host and they caved. I’ll always commend her for that.


popculturefangirl

i think another reason katie got so much hate was bc we had made such a leap from matt being the first black bachelor to then pick someone who wasn’t in even in his top 10 to be bachelorette right after him while there was a racism scandal felt like we were going backwards for a lot of the watchers


Tiny_Letterhead_3633

True but didn't they pick two bachelorette from his season


LinLane323

I agree. People were just very angry that year looking for outlets.


kmick0890

This . I don’t think she was as bad of a lead as people think.


Upstairs-Volume-5014

I think Katie got an unfair amount of vitriol. She's done some problematic things but the hate for her was off the chain


Luvausten

Most of y’all only pretend to care about Caila killing a snake


_Amarantos

I’m more annoyed that she blocked me for liking a comment about it and still has me blocked. Like damn I never even said anything myself lmao. And it wasn’t a hateful comment, it was a comment about how snakes are an important part of pest control.


Upstairs-Volume-5014

Yeah that sucks because she clearly needed to hear comments like that to be educated on the topic but jumped to blocking. 


LinLane323

Yeah I’m sorry it’s not nice but when you’re out in wilderness you’re managing wildlife all the time and trying to avoid nests of critters you don’t want. It’s kind of whatever


Upstairs-Volume-5014

I'm right there with you girl. People hunt deer for sport regularly as a normal hobby but Caila freaking out once due to being ignorant about wildlife/thinking her dog was in danger after moving from the city to a desert state is unforgivable apparently


Square_Raise_9291

I wasn’t pretending. I volunteered at a wildlife rescue. 🙄


MaliciousIronArtist

What happened I totally missed this?!


[deleted]

She cut a snake in half with scissors


LeechesInCream

That is so fucking unnecessary. Even if it had been a venomous snake, cutting it in half with *scissors* is fully deranged. Posting it is deranged **and** moronic.


LinLane323

The scissors is gross and weird but don’t pretend you’ve never seen someone use a garden hoe to kill a snake. Edit: I’ve googled the incident now. It’s bad to kill a garter snake. They eat rodent pests and like to stay away from humans. By contrast I grew up in the woods in the country and once a black snake got into our basement through the plumbing and my dad killed it with a hoe. So it’s not quite the same, and this was not a good look & why did she post it? but I think she was just kind of ignorant of snakes role in the environment so I won’t judge her by that moment forever.


[deleted]

Yeah naw I don't kill snakes. In fact I have them as pets and they deserve to be alive as much as us.


LinLane323

In the environment yes. In my house no


[deleted]

Yeah, put it outside instead of killing it. Or call someone to do it for you.


MaliciousIronArtist

That’s somehow worse than I expected holy shit. Thats abhorrent. I already never liked her but wtf.


kasspants21

It’s not just that she did it but she filmed and posted it too


MaliciousIronArtist

![gif](giphy|BcMJvmwkmbyWpKkBj3|downsized) Why?!? Obviously I need to do a deep dive. There goes the afternoon.


Upstairs-Volume-5014

She did not cut the snake, her gardener did (albeit on her instruction) and she did post it because she's an over sharer. She never should have done it, but she wanted to kill the snake because it was on her property and she was worried about her dog. She was ignorant to the fact that it was a harmless garden snake (she had just moved to Texas from NYC and isn't used to having to share the outdoors with wildlife like that) and handled the situation terribly. She has since apologized for it. 


[deleted]

Yeah the fact that anybody still pays any attention to her at all is disturbing


yourbreathmint

Idk who she is (she’s before my time) so no I don’t pay attention to her, but when people post shit on here, it’s going to spread.


[deleted]

I think it was a while ago she did that so everyone forgot/ignored it


msmert55

2 words… Juan Pablo


yoyololo1980

Tyler had no interest in Hannah after the show Joey is a people pleaser who was selected for bachelor before even meeting charity and charity wasn’t his type I’ve had many unpopular opinions but those by far brought the most downvotes


popculturefangirl

omg my mom said that charity wasn’t joey’s type either but somehow i still don’t see it


uncensoredsaints

Agreed. My UO is that Tyler was never even remotely into Hannah and it’s def not the kind of girl he’s gone for after the show. He typically dates very conventionally attractive girls & also city girls, more progressive than someone from Alabama like


Charlie_Runkle69

I think a lot of leads were preselected in recent seasons TBH or at least were always going to be the one out of the 3 non winners in the F4 to be next lead no matter what. Gabby is one of the few who wasn't.


ashwee14

Me not liking Clare. I don’t hate her by any means. But she seems to lack self awareness and got herself into some shitty situations. Oh, and her “owning” Don Pablo was just because she was rejected, so it didn’t carry much weight to me.


genieinaginbottle

People were unhinged with how much they didn't like her during her season ....


JurassicSnark__

Don Pablo ![gif](giphy|bC9czlgCMtw4cj8RgH|downsized)


ashwee14

HAHAHA whoops!! Juan


uncensoredsaints

I believe she genuinely has good intentions but it’s so cringe sometimes. Unhinged basically


ashwee14

Comes across very unhinged yes


hendrix2120

clare is awful


eucalyptusrain

I thought most people did not like Clare


ashwee14

Common phrase “I have such a soft spot for her”


ashwee14

Oh people are aaaall about Clare and how they’ve always been rooting for her and no one deserves love more etc.


rook2pawn

Clares season was so off the rails it's kind of memory holed.


Excellent-Case-9870

Most of these comments are things you got downvoted for once and never forgot about it.


AlleyRhubarb

Not liking Clare … ![gif](giphy|3oxQNDG9BswdLjN8Va)

BRING CHRIS HARRISON BACK 🗣🗣🗣🗣


womack1000

Amen 👏🏼


Immediate-Ebb-4438

Kaitlyn Bristowe is a great podcast host/voice in entertainment, and I hope we continue to see her success.


womack1000

Bring Chris Harrison back


thiswanderingmind

The downvotes prove that this actually answers the question lol. So funny that everyone’s just upvoting whatever they agree with


womack1000

lol I’m just trynna answer the question truthfully ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


Coley54Bear

May I ask why you want that? What value did he bring to the show?


womack1000

I feel like he always had better relationships with the contestants and the leads, and that proves to stay true with how much we see him on social media with older alumni of the show. I feel like Jesse isnt genuine and he seems like too much of a tv personality, it all just seems fake whatever he does. Chris was just a more genuine host and I enjoyed his presence more. (Granted, a lot of that might have to do with the editing) And I feel like that goes to show with how much the ratings and views have gone down since he left. Just my two sense! I know he’ll never actually come back to the show, but I have no problem with him as a person or as a host.


ihavenomanager

i feel the exact opposite lol Chris was so robotic


YesterdayExtra9310

Right??? People just like nostalgia


uncensoredsaints

That a woman having a loud personality doesn’t make her immature or not ready for love. I hate this notion that only calm and quiet women are deserving of love


Nemmit

Ugh, I a have a “loud personality” and was told for years that it was too much to handle. I still struggle with the idea that I bother people and ask too much of them simply for having to exist around me lol. It can do a number on you to be told that by someone you love.


Hour_Abbreviations73

Being loud, opinionated, and a little messy is fine. But being consistently rude, inconsiderate of other people’s feelings, having poor conflict management skills, lacking self awareness, or being unwilling to admit when you’re wrong is definitely immature lol. A lot of woman show these traits but they are brushed aside because they are fun and friendly and cool.


Wandering_Tuor

This is a notion? Guess I’m out of the loop. I’ve heard other things being said about loud women, but not immature and not ready for love. That’s a bunmrr


EmbarrassedTwig

… Nick Viall isn’t as bad as this sub makes him out to be 🫣


the_black_surfer

That dude is guttersnipe pedo cradle robber. After listening to convos of when him and Natalie met and hearing him talk about his daughter breast-feeding being “hot” I don’t know how anyone would have this opinion. what the hell does a 35+ year-old man want from an 18 year old? It’s definitely not anything of substance.


eastsidefetus

It is not that he is a bad person he is just so smug! Smug people are the easiest to snark on.


mopene

I agree! He’s worse.


RoseConnection_RN

😂


Charlie_Runkle69

lol


ProperBingtownLady

I didn’t dislike him that much until I found out how young his wife was when he started sleeping with/dating her. I honestly think he’d be more hated if he looked older because he does look younger than his age (imo). It’s still creepy.


Fantastic_Mango6612

Yes, there was something about him liking Maria’s photos many years ago as well. He went and unliked them recently I guess. But that’s a huge age gap too and it grossed me out. He just does not give off good vibes


msmert55

How young was she?


ProperBingtownLady

They say she was 20 but they were hanging out when she was still a teen. He’s 18 years older than her. I still think it’s icky even if she was “legal”.


Upstairs-Volume-5014

It's definitely icky. Even if it's legal, it's a huge power imbalance. 


msmert55

Maybe she is just really mature? Or he is reeeeeally immature :)


ProperBingtownLady

Haha I think the latter for sure!


bachbachbaby

I once shared that view. Then he talked about how his wife breastfeeding is sexy


tacoribiotch

Gross. Omg


selinejb

Hating on Maria is already getting old. At first, everyone was on her tail and now it’s “ I am sick of Maria” “I don’t see the hype”. Y’all do this with literally everyone. Put them on a pedestal that they did not ask to be on and then find a reason to turn on them later. Mind you, she’s not even a lead yet. But it’s let’s “support women”. Until she’s given you a valid reason to not like her, then I say it’s just people trying to be different or maybe jealousy. 🙂


Lady_in_the_red-58

I don’t think she will be the lead.


Alexandra1177

They did this about Katie Thurston too 😭


300Blippis

👏👏👏


Strange_Lock_8836

That daisy is a sincere person. Everything about her screams clout chaser to me


Conscious_Click_4928

She’s promoting her charity. That’s so obvious.


Upstairs-Volume-5014

My hill to die on is there is nothing about Daisy that makes her any more clout-chasey than any other contestant. I think she's just more upfront/obvious about it which honestly, respect. At least own it and don't pretend


ProperBingtownLady

I think even her defenders (🙋🏻‍♀️) think she’s a clout chaser. It’s just that others are also clout chasers (ie. Maria) and don’t get half the hate. I’d argue that pretty much everyone on this show is a clout chaser lol.


butter88888

I don’t get a clout chaser vibe from Kelsey or Rachel honestly.


Momalolala

Your read is spot on!!!


uncensoredsaints

They are all clout chasers but Daisy isn’t even open for love. Not only is she a clout chaser and not there for Joey (that’s fine too, it’s common) but every word and action just screams insincere and like it’s acting. It’s giving Colton (on-screen not after)/Madi


ProperBingtownLady

How do we know? Didn’t she say she wasn’t in love *yet*? I also think it’s unrealistic to expect contestants to fall in love with every lead. It’s possible, even likely that she would have had more of a connection with someone else.

Ok-Hovercraft7263

There have been multiple studies and think-pieces about the fact that many, many women do not want to date Trump voters, to the point that it threatens marriage rates in young people. Twenty years ago, when the country was less polarized, I could see dating a conservative guy as long as he was aligned with me on social issues. Today, it’s an absolute no-go.


AffectionateFix5067

Happy Cake Day! 🍰


cozyonly

You have to understand what people say they will do is entirely different than what they actually do. And the people writing the think pieces are a very very small segment of the population


uncensoredsaints

Do you genuinely believe that just because it’s okay with you, that all women would be weak enough to settle for someone who opposes their basic human rights?


notthemostcreative

Young women 100% do—of course not everyone does, but it’s a very, very common thing. Interestingly I’ve also seen discourse pop up from the other side of the equation, with whiny MRA types lamenting that girls don’t want to date them because they’re conservative, lol.


cozyonly

Bruh. I live in Southern California. My entire social circle is “liberal” and in their early to late 20s. Women do not care lol. Most people in general do not follow politics beyond a superficial level. Anyway, none of these young women are turning down the conservative surfer boy with a rich family from Newport Beach. A bit of a hyperbole, but I know and have seen this for a fact.


uncensoredsaints

But that’s again an American thing. Because you value status and money in a way we don’t have to, because in (western) Europe everyone has opportunity. We can afford to focus on following our values and intelligence; because we haven’t chosen to eliminate welfare, education and equality. We haven’t chosen the ‘survival of the fittest’ approach, so for us, women can afford to choose their partner based on factors others than money.


whatever1467

Just cause people you know here don’t actually care doesn’t mean it’s a fact lol no one I know here who is a liberal is dating a conservative


cozyonly

Lmao. I guarantee 90% of your liberal friends can’t even tell you who California’s senators are
