and Murdoch has every right to turn his eyeballs in whatever direction anyone else has the right to. There is no law that says "thou shalt not look in certain places". How do you supposed you could enforce such a law anyway? Force Murdoch to wear a blindfold for the whole time he is on the show, just to keep Selina happy???

It's only "very serious" because Selina is making a big song and dance about what even she admits she can't prove what's making her feel "very uncomfortable".

Seriously.......Why the big deal???????

It's scary that I have to share the same planet with people who think merely looking at someone should be made a criminal offence.

I didn't say it was a criminal offense. But he's making a young girl feel uncomfortable in her own home. If this is all just a prank, as you say, then he has some sick sense of humour, because it's obvious how uncomfortable she is around him. What he's doing is causing her some distress and she shouldn't have to cop it or get over it. Not when she feels unsafe in her own home because he could walk into her room at any moment.

Oh and another question: why is Selina trying to keep it from Curtis? Is she afraid Curtis will defend her against "mud"?

Because she doesn't need a man to defend her?

What do you mean she "doesn't need a man" to defend her?

It means exactly what it says - we are in the 21st century after all (and they, the end of the 20th). We live in a world where a woman shouldn't, and doesn't, need a man to defend her. It's one thing I've always liked about Selina - she never needed a man to defend her honour. What an antediluvian concept in itself.

I guess there's also the fact that Curtis is still on thin ice after the breaking and entering to consider: If he lost it and went after Mud, he could be in a lot of trouble.

^ Yeah, true.  Now if This was 2002-05 Jesse... It'd be a different story!  (The man was in a fight or agro near enough every week when he came back)

What a load of new-age PC poppycock. No wonder she is so far up herself. What "honour" was Curtis offering to defend anyway?

look........ WHO CARES if it is the 21st century. Social constants are social constants!

Now Captain Hulk do you have a better idea of why I hate Selina so much?

I don't know what Trump-led universe you're thinking of, but it's not PC poppycock - in fact, why should she have to tell anyone of what Mud is doing? It's her business, and she can tell who she wants, when she wants. If she chooses not to tell her boyfriend, that's her choice.

Now I don't know where you are pulling this idea of her being up-herself, because she isn't up herself. She's strong, she's independent and she doesn't need a man to speak for her, which is something that you seem to have a gripe with her about. Now I'm not having an attack, I'm just stating a fact.

Social constants change all the time. Once it was a so-called 'social constant' to chain up black men and use them as slaves. It was a 'social constant' to feel women up in the workplace and to use them as one's play thing in lack of a better term. It was a 'social constant' to hate, bash and even kill gays.

So look........ LET'S FACE IT, the only 'social constant' that has and will last the test of time is calling out sexist (and other discriminatory) comments. And if I was to read over the last 83 pages of comments, I'm sure I can find hundreds of them! 

[Old H&A Fan]

Matt, you have just confirmed the pro-Gillard, pro-Hillary Marxist socialist regressive "progressive" new-age anti-men attitudes that currently infect our universe, which is what I consider Selina Cook (aka Selina "roberts") to be all about. I find it disgusting.

Reverse discrimination is still discrimination.

CASE CLOSED.

BANG BANG goes the gavel.

Court is adjourned.
