With all the recent uproar about the big brother house and the "sexual assault" of a housemate i think its time i put my massive two cents into this debate. While i do not officially watch the show Tam is mad keen on it, so as a result i watch it out of nothing better to do. Also it gives me ammunition for watching sbs arthouse (read: porn) movies..."I watched big brother so you can watch this documentary on carpet munching"

In case you are unaware of what happened over the weekend a female housemate was held down and slapped on the head by a male member of the house's member - video currently available here - and as a result the incident caused both of them to get the ass. This is known as a Turkey Slap and begs the question who the hell slapped a turkey and then thought that's the same sound as a penis hitting a face. I mean teabag i can understand...

While all will agree that it is not right to rub your genitals in someones face without permission - is it right to call it sexual assault, when it was clearly done in jest and no complaint was made? If it is technically sexual assault, and supposedly it is, why are they not being charged for it? The police have been shown the video and will not press charges but these dudes are having reputations destroyed - surely something is not right here, either charge them or shut the hell up. These boys did something stupid, funny though, and have paid the price for it - they have lost the 15 minutes of fame they had awaiting them and the opportunities that gives - surely the papers labeling them as sexual predators is not needed.

On the other hand its a worse crime to televise this crap and take up valuable viewing time...
