Big Fat Gypsy Weddings

[Dee Sa]

I am watching this series with mixed feelings,obviously they need to keep their culture alive but oh those awful wedding dresses have to be seen to be believed ! Dare I ask where all the money comes from ?

[NazNomad]

crépe.

[dotty.]

no cos none of them are dead , and I was not suggesting any of them were paedophiles, so there is no similarity whatsoever.

[dotty.]

the mothers and grandmothers sat there and let a cameraman film their daughters in those clothes dancing like Christine Aguilera and boyonce and the kids were 6 years old, it looked wrong to me but to peadophiles it was probably the show of the week,.

[dotty.]

so what point was the editor making by dwelling on those children when it was a show about weddings?

[ummmm]

To show that they live in a different world to us....

[dotty.]

it definately did that ummmm, it reminded me of the child beauty pageants they have in Texas

[dotty.]

so we saw 30 seconds of the first communion and 20 minutes of scantily clad 6 year olds girating

[DEN53]

There didn't seem to be no men at the communion or the party.

[mccfluff]

i still want to know what happens, if your gay or rebel or want to for heavens sake have a career

I have no respect for them whatsoever, as I have said many times. As for their morals, well they might have a sort of moral code within their own kind (dubious), but they have no morals as far as outsiders are concerned and their treatment of outsiders. And why should they be allowed to carry on their traditions, lifestyle, etc at the expense of the rest of us. I have to watch the programme though just to laugh at the dresses. Last nights flashing light show just had us in stitches.

Those little girls dressed like lolitas upset me. To me there is something very basically wrong if people with so called sexual morals think that dressing their kids up like this is OK. It makes me wonder!!

[dotty.]

yes I saw that Den, wonder where they were? I also wonder if the fathers woulkd allow their dauhters to be films that way? Infact the men were quite absent at alot of the filming, and where were they when the bulldozers were in action and the bailif was carting old women away?

[arwyn]

It never really showed any men apart from the groom I would like to know why.
