Unfortunately, it all felt like less of a date and more like a couple friends being tourists together.

As handsome and smart and optimistic as Will was, we were too far into the journey for me to be trying to pull romance out of any of these men.

Maybe Will just didn’t have a deep enough interest in me to get there, or maybe he did and something inside wasn’t letting him fall, but after giving him a precious one-on-one and not seeing any romance blossom, I had to say goodbye.

![]() Цитата:
После того, кaк Ли сочинил историю, которой не было, чтобы очернить Кенни и даже сказал, что готов получить за это в челюсть, конечно же он был напуган, что получит сейчас! Он же сам сказал, что знает как повести в какой ситуации, чтобы кого то подставить, так и сделал. Ли расист и его специально взяли на шоу, чтобы он мутил воду. Ли скрывает свою агрессию, действует манипулятивно, чтобы забраться под кожу, вот он и достал Кенни. Кенни был совершенно искренним с Рэчел, Ли только и занимался тем, что подставлял Кенни. и даже сказал, что готов получить за это в челюсть, конечно же он был напуган, что получит сейчас! Ли ведет себя как манипулятор из учебника о том, как манипулировать. Они спокойны, но доводят других до бешенства: Так же как Ник выбирал между Тэйлор и Коринн не в свете конфликта между ними, а выбирал ту, отношения с которой пошли дальше, так же сделала и Рэчел, ей не все было еще понятно относительно Кенни, а потому она его и оставила.

Мне их конфликт был не интересен и Ли как участник был совершенно не интересен. Если он расист, то Рэчел ему не нужна, он был в шоу только для драмы, а драма мне вообще мало интересна. Ни Рэчел в своем блоге, и Шарлин этот конфликт особо не освещали, он был намеренно создан оргами, думаю. Кенни в этом конфликте мне был тоже не интересен. Его что то зацепило и он не мог отцепиться. Видимо, ему было важно выйти победителем, но его поведение мне тоже не понравилось. Орги любят строить сюжетные линии в первой половине шоу на конфликтах и высасывают все из них до последней капли, мне все это совершенно не интересно, слишком много они акцентировали внимания на этом конфликте. Меня в шоу интересуют развивающиеся отношения, конфликты, особенно такие раздутые и высосанные из пальце - мне не интересны. Было интересно познакомиться с Эриком и узнать его историю, но строить отношения с людьми с подобными проблемами очень сложно.

конфликт это тоже отношения между людьми, и конфликты бывают очень поучительными (с точки зрения стороннего наблюдателя). Проблема в данном случае в том что чтобы сделать выводы из конфликта нужно быть в курсе основных фактов и понимать мотивацию участников. Этот конфликт так нарезали что понять его достаточно сложно. Имхо, они слишком хотели сделать этот конфликт чёрно-белым, в прямом и переносном смысле.

Закончу постить блог Рэчел:
Having sent both Kenny and Will home already, I spent the rest of the night before the rose ceremony contemplating each of my remaining relationships. By the time the sun came up I knew what I had to do and there wasn’t any conversation that could take place at a cocktail party to change what I felt in my heart. Alex had intrigued me from the first night I met him. He was gorgeous, successful, brilliant, goofy, mysterious, and gentle with women … a true puzzle. Unfortunately, this journey was so far outside of his comfort zone Alex never felt free enough to embrace our connection without inhibitions. I saw him push himself and romance me, but I also felt him pull back at times. ![]() I felt terrible saying goodbye to him knowing we would never share a cute moment together again, but on the other hand cute was no longer enough at this stage to remain on my journey.

![]() ![]() Copenhagen was a beautiful and difficult week where I sent men home on three consecutive nights. So you better believe I’m ready to hit the next location and shake things up! Next week as I hand out roses they will not just be any roses — these roses will take me to these men’s hometowns! With six men left, that means there will be two gut-wrenching goodbyes. My emotions reach an all time high, so prepare yourselves to see me breakdown like I never have before. Thank you guys for reading and as always your support! Xoxo, Rachel

![]() Цитата:
Даже Дин сказал в своем интервью, что все понимают о чем он говорит, когда говорит о Ли, поскольку с подобными "культурными" проявлениями он часто сталкивался, он говорил о расизме. И сейчас, когда расисты в стране поднимают головы повсеместно, уместно ли реально было брать в шоу расиста, чтобы создавать такой конфликт в шоу? неужели недостаточно смотреть на это в новостях ежедневно? Считаю, что это было излишним, шоу могло бы обойтись без него. Я знаю, что создатели шоу не любят Трампа, не знаю любит ли его кто в Голливуде. Они хотели показать, что с его приходом к власти проблемы расизма стали еще острее? Мне кажется это и так все понимают без того, чтобы создавать этот конфликт в шоу. Потому то и Шарлин и Рэчел его замолчали. Рэчел и так достаточно обвиняют в том, что ей больше нравятся белые парни, чем черные и она переживала по поводу этого, принимая решения в шоу, зная, что ее будут осуждать еще и в этом аспекте. А кому то шоу в этом сезоне совсем не нравится, поскольку в том числе в него привнесли расовые конфликты. А кому то тем, что это шоу перестало быть "шоу для белых". ![]()

Sharleen Joynt on The Bachelorette: Ep 6
The way the Bachelor edit cookie crumbles isn’t always fair, and sometimes it isn’t even remotely representative of reality. As viewers, we can only chalk a connection up to the interactions we’re shown; with no intro video, no limo exit, and no interactions or conversations, how can we not assume it’s because there was nothing to see? This is why watching both Adam and Matt stick around through two Rose Ceremonies over guys whose names I didn’t have to double-check is frustrating. ![]()

Obviously the show isn’t meant to be analyzed in the sport-like way that I —and many of my lovely readers!—treat it, but it’s like betting on a horse when you only know the stats for a couple of them. Alex has gotten his fair share of airtime, and Anthony is one of the few to have received a 1-on-1 (although at the time I did call it a bit of a throwaway)—I can’t have been the only one to feel duped.

I also can’t be the only one to feel a bit bad for Will. He clearly didn’t make the moves necessary, especially with a Bachelorette who has been very upfront (and, in my opinion, justified) about wanting to be pursued, made to feel wanted, even “wooed.”
![]() But what I feel bad about is how the focal point of Will’s 1-on-1 became his history with mainly dating white women. Had we gotten a complete picture of Will as a person, this might’ve been less of a shame. And it’s not like he hasn’t dated Black women, just not as seriously. I thought it was interesting—not right or wrong—how this was such a point of interest among the men in the house. Eric’s insistence that it mattered because Will was also Black was fascinating to me; I don’t disagree, but I also don’t think I have a place to. Perhaps it’s because I’ve almost never dated someone my exact “race.” I’ve dated men of all ethnicities, but because half-Asian is pretty rare, I’ve only ever come across one “Hapa“—or “halfie” as I like to call us—who I viewed romantically. (For the record, he is now married to a white woman.) Granted, in a city full of tall, blonde-haired, blue-eyed women, when I’ve found out that a guy I’m interested in has dated Asian women in the past, I have to admit that it made me feel like I could be a contender based on that information alone. And, I have to admit that if I found myself attracted to an Asian man who had only ever been interested in white women, I’d feel a little weird about it. In the early stages at least, perhaps I’d worry I wasn’t his type. Obviously there are so many subtle ins and outs leading to that “X-factor”—to use Rachel’s perfect expression—but it’s a simple truth that not everyone is going to be everyone’s cup of tea. And for the sake of Will’s real-life aftermath to this experience, I wish that hadn’t been the major takeaway of his otherwise spotless time from the show (the way he dealt with Lee was ace). Because, at the end of the day, it was Will’s lack of action that did him in (this early, anyway), not his dating history.

My Top 4 based on last night’s episode are…
![]() 1. Bryan, 37: Notice how we’re always shown Rachel’s 1-on-1 time with Bryan, no matter how brief or non-developmental it is? Monday night’s 1-on-1 showed their connection is about as convincing as they come on this show. Most importantly, the fact that Rachel’s both skeptical and, to use her word, pessimistic, and she’s still this into Bryan means she’s really excited about him. Best of all, I feel it’s 100 percent reciprocated. I’m gung-ho about this pair.

![]() ![]() 2. Peter, 31: Yes, Peter’s time is always shown as well, and he did receive this week’s Group Date rose. But speaking of reciprocation, I’m sorry to say I felt it less from Peter last night. Yes, he’s an obvious frontrunner, but I reeeeally disliked that Rachel had to ask him to kiss her, and then he didn’t even lean down to her—she’s the one who sat up to kiss HIM. This short, seemingly inconsequential moment made me frown and worry for the first time that maybe those of you who’ve been tweeting and writing me are right: maybe Peter isn’t as into her. Or maybe he’s just not as proactive about showing it. I can still be convinced of the latter.

![]() ![]() 4. Eric, 29: I said two weeks ago that I felt I’d underestimated Eric and Rachel’s connection, and I definitely feel that way more than ever now. A few weeks ago I started to clue in to how comfortable she is with him and how there’s always a touchy-feely-ness that there isn’t with many other guys. However, this was the first time I really noticed how much Rachel laughs with Eric. Like, it’s a constant (and adorable) laugh track. They are a couple of cute goofballs together and their Copenhagen 1-on-1 really highlighted that (especially the amusement park part). As Caila and I agreed in today’s The Morning After video, however, I still feel like I’m getting a tad more fun friendship than romantic passion. That said, it’s hard to see Eric not getting a Hometown at this point. He’s officially the underdog for me this season.

По поводу Ли еще. Сегодня не показывают новый выпуск, сегодня (перед праздником) повторяют предыдущий, который мне толком не удалось посмотреть во вторник и я пересматриваю его сейчас.
![]() Очень показательно было то, что сказала Рэчел в вертолете, когда Кенни пошел прощаться с Ли: "И он ему продолжает уделять внимание??? О чем там вообще можно говоирть?" ...не совсем дословно...одним словом, зачем рaсисту уделять столько внимания и о чем с ним можно разговаривать, если он расист??? ![]()
