Can the dudes on Bachelor in Paradise stop treating women like voiceless toys they can trade at will? Thx 😘

Episode four of Bachelor in Paradise brought all the drama we’ve come to expect from the bikini-clad offshoot: hot bods, lots of making out, and a fair bit of toxic masculinity. The August 13 episode featured a verbal confrontation between contestant Clay and newcomer Christian over their mutual GF Nicole. Approaching Nicole and Christian as they lounged under a piñata-clad cabana, Clay attempted to “steal” Nicole away to talk, only to be rebuked.

These are strong, independent women What’s especially infuriating is the fact that the women in question—Hannah and Nicole—aren’t normally passive. Both have built up reputations in the Bachelor franchise as women who aren’t afraid to speak their minds.

Not to mention that, by virtue of having competed on The Bachelor—a show that puts you in direct competition—both women have proven that they’re willing to fight for what they want. Nicole especially has held onto that spitfire quality for much of Paradise, letting her opinions shine through in her interviews; yet for some reason, when placed between these two men, that fire is seriously squelched. And it’s noticeable.

And it was an almost an exact repeat the following episode with Christian, Clay and Nicole; with the former two disallowing Nicole from voicing how she felt and TBH not even caring, until the very end of the interaction. Nicole and Hannah legitimately could have walked away in the middle of the encounter, and I don’t think any of the men would have even noticed.

Not only are Christian’s statements possessive, but they’re also kind of threatening. Saying “no one’s going to take you,” and “I won’t let you take her,” isn’t only implying ownership of someone, but also hints at violence.
