    I definitely think Rachels behavior was all kinds of extra but it didn't strike me with enough force to have to start throwing out medical explanations or imply addictive tendencies.

    The only reason I though alcoholism was because as soon as she took a drink, her personality changed.  Besides, there's no shame in being an alcoholic or having an mental illness.

    Low tea is just a normal tea time and was what the upper classes had/have in the afternoon served on a low table, ie, coffee table in the drawing room. 

    Correct.  On the QM2 they have afternoon tea, but no one called it "high tea."  😠

    We all have told Monique a million times that she should get off the show before it destroy her and everything she loves. Her husband is worth millions, so she does not need the money. She also has a strong following that adores her so she could probably build a comfortable little business from that if she wants to earn her own income separate from Chris.

    I have never been able to understand why "happily married" people go on any Real Housewife show.

    I don't know if the show causes the relationships to explode, but so many of them do explode.

    I think Monique did not do the binder thing properly.

    She should have said, "Since you want to spread rumors that my last child does not belong to my husband then I think I should talk about some rumors about the man you are supposedly dating".

    If I did not know about that plot (and I think most viewers do not)… I would think Monique was pulling out the binder because Gizelle keeps calling Chris Big Boy, which would be overkill.

    Well if Monique knows that her last child is her husband's....why the overkill?

    The wicked flee though no one pursues...

    I think that is something a demanding person might tell themselves to excuse their own behavior.  Rachel's behavior was very much all over the place, but part of me did appreciate seeing someone who was willing to say "no," and walk away when confronted with ridiculous sounding demands from the guests. 

    To me it was selfish.  She had no consideration for her fellow crewmates.  Captain Lee gave her a solution, tell the guests they won't be able to get everything on the sheet.  But I think Rachel is a perfectionist so she felt the pressure, feared she could not deliver and ran away.

    And in another fun side note. The Germans did not use mustard gas in WWII. That was WWI. Everyone - Americans, Germans, and especially the British had huge stockpiles of it in WWII, but everyone was afraid to use it after their experiences in the First World War.

    I'm glad you mentioned that because, I do remember reading that mustard gas was from WWI, and it was BAD and lethal.

    Having said that, these upcoming guests' preference sheets are absolutely ridiculous, starting with demanding they have rainbow unicorn floats as an absolute requirement, and ending with the endless food requests.  I can see why Rachel would flip out.  If she were to even attempt all of their "preferences", she would be never have a moment's rest, and with no sous chef or even a fully competent stew crew to assist, it would be next to impossible to produce all of that with the high quality they obviously are demanding.  

    One of the reasons I think Rachel might be an alcoholic is because many alcoholics suffer from perfectionism.  As in, "If I can't do it perfectly, I might as well leave."

    Early on in the pandemic, some of the biggest stories were outbreaks on these big cruise ships, which were being refused to dock in many ports and in some cases, after docking, the passengers weren't allowed to disembark for a couple of weeks, as infections increased on board.

    But they are on a yacht, not a cruise ship, and also they're in the Caribbean, where early on there weren't many infections.  The problem with cruise ships is they carry too many people and that's how infections spread.

    Gizelle deserves some humble pie. I find her to be vicious -she couldn’t wait to spill the tea about Monique and her trainer.  Has me wondering how involved Gizelle is for Monique to come with guns blazing.  Hmmmmmm.

    So it was fine that Monique told Gizelle that "you come here every reunion with a different man; you can't keep a man."

    Is that okay?  I don't know but THAT is some vicious, evil shit.  Any woman who says that is trash to me.

    But, I do agree that Gizelle needs some humility.  Wendy was right, Gizelle has "pretty girl syndrome" (and I think Monique might have it too) and she doesn't have to try.

    Just spitballing, but all that drinking may be a bi-product of a bi-polar disorder. The way she kept referring to her boyfriend as a calming force when she feels out of control leads me to believe she has episodes. I know a couple of people with BPD and they display similar behavior.  As an aside, she’s also very vulgar. You could tell, even Eddie and Captain Lee were taken aback by her vulgarity. 

    True.

    It could also be alcoholism, which can also be considered a mental illness.

    Monique seemed very angry but I’m kind of glad someone called Gizelle out on the fake relationship and all the women Jamal has, including the current one who recently had a baby. Gizelle looked shocked and was (for once) speechless. 

    Why?  What good does that do you or anybody else?  I thought most people knew that relationship was fake.  I heard about it a year ago.  I mean even Gizelle knew that shit was fake, that's why she couldn't say anything, she knew Monique was right.  

    Monique has NOTHING I want, at least I didn't have to marry a baller to get out of "the hood."

    I agree.  I want to know more about his friend/tenant.  Is she single?  If so, why is chasing tail all around Thailand when she is RIGHT THERE???

    Maybe it's because Tarik isn't into black women anymore.  If Tarik wasn't on the show he would have dropped Hazel and gone with Minty, but he didn't want to look like an ass on TV.

    Natalie wants things to work with Mike because she's too long in the tooth to be on one of those Eastern European dating sites.

    Of the people on the show, Monique has this mentality the hardest because she's been nothing more than Chris's side chick/girlfriend/wife since she was in her early 20s.  Her entire young adulthood has been in service to Chris so she could "secure the bag."  She sees that as a badge of honor and that she's a "real woman."

    Marlo on Atlanta just said the exact same thing to the new girl about Kenya last night. It's vile but I don't know about dangerous. 

    It is dangerous when you get on the other side of that sentiment.  The truth is that unless something happens to Monique, she will lose Chris.  He will either die or leave her.  When I see women who lose their husbands either to death or divorce and feel they aren't anything without a man, THAT is sad.

    You know what I dont know and don't care about....whether she has, had or kept a man.  

    I dont think her marital or dating status was mentioned by anyone.  And I found it refreshing that people were finally not recognizing a woman's accomplishments by the same standards as a 15 year old in 1842.  

    That is refreshing.  And what does "keeping a man" even mean, really?  

    I didn't think anything was funny about Monique saying, "if it were up to Chris, I'd be barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen...heheeee."  She probably thinks that's love, poor thing.

  11. I think that Monique's statement of "Gizelle can't keep a man" is nothing short of fucking dangerous.  Her stans are already repeating that shit.  

    Statements like that are dangerous because it supposes that a woman's only currency is how she can keep a man.  That is one reason so many women get and stay in abusive relationships.  "Well, he's a man and any man is better than no man."  or "I can see the red flags, but all my friends are married and I don't want to be left out."

    The fact Monique's stans might be young women is fucking scary.  That fact that in 2020 young women actually believe that nonsense is all kinds of messed up.  I deal with women every day who are in/getting out of/healing from abusive relationships, a girl in my college neglected her health because her mother kept pushing her to find a man, neglected it so much that she eventually died from a brain tumor, so Monique needs to STUF forever with those vile comments.

    To be fair, we're in a pandemic and I'm sure she - like most of us - has been on lockdown for the majority of the past 8 months. (the reunion was just filmed in November)

    Since Monique isn't a lazy mom, she could have worked at a food bank, or done something for other people, rather than compile a "receipt book" which is for no other purpose than to hurt others and gas up her stans to harass the other HW's.  They're already harassing Gizelle on Instagram.

    If the tea is true that Monique was the side chick to Chris and she slid his girlfriend at the time out of the picture, you can bet your bottom dollar Monique felt the girlfriend wasn't woman enough to hold on to Chris.  Monique absolutely believes your worth as a woman is being able to a) get a man b) have children.  That's why her social media handles are "MrsMoniqueSamuels."

    And that might just come out if Monique comes back next season.  

    Wouldn't it be something if we find out that MRS Monique Samuels was the SIDE CHICK.

    Monique doesn't have anything going for her EXCEPT being married to NFL Chris.  She graduated from high school, came to DC to be a rapper, became Chris' personal assistant/live in girlfriend and got married.

    Everyone else has had some sort of education or job (or connections to get a job) so if their relationships fail, they have other things going on.

    When you have nothing else going on except being "Mrs," then you'll judge other women on their ability to be a "Mrs." too.

    She reminds me of women I went to college with, but that was over 40 years ago, so Monique has NO EXCUSE, this is 2020 sis.

    I don't think its fair to say that Monique does not love her children and only had them to get child support. There has been zero evidence of any of this in her time on the show. You can hate the woman or her character, but when you go here, is it any different than the behavior you are criticizing Monique for - going after "innocent" Jamal  to prove a point?

    No, because Gizelle didn't have a file on Monique. I also never said that Monique in particular did such a thing.  But there is a pattern in the "school of hooking a baller" and part of it is making sure you have a child to get that support.  

    If Monique had such a great life, loving husband, great kids, happy life, she wouldn't be wasting her time creating a folder to hurt others.  

    I think all of the women, except maybe Robyn are miserable.  It's not about securing the bag, it's about being happy with the bag when you get it, not always looking for another bag and then another and another.

    One thing I don’t understand is Monique and Karen are saying Gizelle’s relationship with Jamal is fake. So if it’s fake why are they bothered if he has a girlfriend in Atlanta and a new baby with a random. In fact shouldn’t the person who’s texting Monique about Jamal being her man be contacted about him continuing to whore around? She’s the one who looks stupid.

    I didn't get that either.  

    To me, the most real thing said was said by Wendy.  She said Gizelle has "pretty girl syndrome," that Gizelle doesn't have to work for anything.  I think that is SOOOOO true.  That's Gizelle's problem.   When you're not beautiful, you have to find another way of making it in the world.  Gizelle is shallow, but so are the rest of them.  Also, Gizelle's not ashamed of turning 50 because she had a picture of her on her Instagram, in a bathing suit and the caption read: This is what 50 is supposed to look like.  I'd like Karen to do something like that when she turns 60, but I doubt that will happen.  

    I'll keep saying this, every post.  I HATED when Monique said something to Gizelle about, "you can't keep a man."  Because that is an old fashioned, misogynistic, low class belief.  And MANY, MANY women have been shamed because of it.  If Chris leaves you Mo, are you less of a woman?  There are women who STAY in ABUSIVE relationships because of attitudes like the one Monique has.

    And even though Karen's perfume might be in Bloomingdales, the only folk who'll be buying it are Bravo viewers, not the UES crowd, she'd be better off selling it on Amazon.  Gizelle could make a mint with a clothing line, I'm totally serious, she's all about glitz.  All she has to do is make prom/pageant/sweet sixteen/ quinceañera dresses.  The more sparkles/ruffles/glitter, the better.  

    I think the reason Karen is smart is because of Ray 100%.  As someone here stated, Ray is a man who has probably lived through Jim Crow.  I'm sure he's said something to Karen like, "Don't let these folk make a fool out of you."  When Karen questioned Gizelle about her fake relationship, she didn't go all ham like Monique.  Nope, Karen will let all these others look the fool.   So when the day comes when Bravo turns into a true crime network (a la Oxygen) the images of Monique fighting, Monique and her binder will be around forever.  Monique goes to the PTA meeting; "Hey Monique, did you bring your binder?"  After awhile it's not funny anymore.

    One more thing I want to say.  The worst thing that has happened to the Housewives, and the reason it could come to an end, is social media.  When Candiace said that Monique's followers were bullying her and threatening her.  That isn't just harmless snark, that's fucking serious.  Things in life are progressive.  One of these days, someone's followers might do something in real life, to one of the women and if....when that happens, Bravo is going to have to make a serious decision.

    I think the Issue for me with Monique is that no one was really coming for her ... she LIKE candance came out on 100... she was jumping the gun with the attacks and it looked sad and messy .. I have no prob coming with receipts but the way she is going about it is messy and making her look like the bad guy she is on the defensive when she inst even the topic yet... And Gesizle you have lovely girls ..... let me attack their father and slander a man that has never even said one bad word towards me or my family so i can one up you was NASTY

    If Monique comes back I won't be watching.  That might be the straw that makes me get rid of cable and Bravo for good.  Discovery has a new app, and I don't need cable for that.  It will save me a lot of money.

     

    Quote

    Fans (and half of the cast) will be VERY HAPPY they will no longer have to see Candiace on RHOP.  They will be very happy that Monique "won."

    This shows how backward things are today in the world.  Bullies are celebrated, and people who have been physically attacked are mocked because they're not "perfect victims."  People love Monique because she "put Gizelle in her place."  What does that even mean?  It's not our job as humans to put anybody in "their place" because none of us are perfect.

  17. In many 12 step programs, there is a comment about resentments, that they are the number one offender, that when you resent someone, they live rent free in your head.  I believe this.

    I looked at Monique's face and saw something scary and sad.  I saw hatred.  She's so full of resentments that she took time to compile a book of "receipts" against the other women.  To me that shows how much those women live in her head, just like the people who allegedly bullied her when she was a child.  All of those people are dancing around in her head.  If it were me, I wouldn't give a shit.  Karen too.  All they did was keep Gizelle's name in their mouths? 

    When they were talking about Kamila Harris, and how proud they were that someone who's AKA will be Vice President, the camera panned to Monique's face and she was seething.  What's with you sis?  Why are you so angry?   

    But Monique is low class because anybody who STILL shames women for "not being able to keep a man" is TRASH in my book.

    I thought Monique had it all, husband, homes, children.  Why should she care about messy Gizelle.  Why was she worth Monique's time and effort.  Sad.

    People who do that, people who feel the need to "call someone out" especially for dumb shit like what goes on, on this show, prove to me they are insecure beings.

    I think the death of Karen's parents has made her a more hateful person.

  18. Who is Gizzard?

    Anybody who brings a receipt book to shame others is bully, sociopath and thug in an ugly cocktail dress.  That’s Monique!  The woman who graduated from the Wendy Williams School for Young Ladies, where you don’t learn anything except to hook a baller and make sure you have kids to get that child support $$$$.

    And Karen, I never saw your shit in Bloomingdales, and people really don’t flock to that store like they did in years past, remember Lord &Taylor went bye bye.

  19. Monique is a sociopath who has been gassed up by the people who follow her on social media.  Many of them are young , sadly black, women who look up to Monique because she “secured the bag” without having to go to college or work a job.  

    So, Monique it’s okay to come after Jamal but no one can come for your fugly husband? Good to know.

    And people have been saying Gizelle’s relationship is fake for months.  Monique is nothing but a psychopath and I am not here for bullying.  Hey, didn’t Monique fake cry to the therapist that she was bullied as a child?

    Now I know why no one wanted to play with her!

  20. Monique is trash.  Any woman who talks about another woman “not being able to keep a man” is misogynistic in my book.

    Can’t wait to see how long it takes for big Chris to unload her, and it’ll be for a light skinned woman, since Monique doesn’t believe colorism exists.

  21. I can’t believe Monique sat there and basically said colorism isn’t an issue.

    What turnip truck dropped that bully?

    Now we’re going to see how aggressive Monique really is (see what I did there?)

    Karen, you’re closer to sixty than forty.  No one is wearing perfume anymore honey, that shit stopped with Tabu.  And Karen, you had all that work done on your face and they couldn’t take off that growth?  It gets bigger every year.  

    Karen is trying to tie Monique in the bully department.

    Gizelle why are you with cheater cheater pumpkin eater?
