Angela- I give her props for learning a few phrases and how to greet Michael's mother. It's more than most of the 90 day fiancee gang does. However she lost me with the ciggies and the way she acted at the market. I don't think he meant to be insulting by calling her fat. English is not his or the shopgirl's first language so I think he was trying to correctly explain the situation using correct terms and it just came out wrong. He was trying to do something nice for granny and she couldn't just accept it. She would probably look thinner in a Nigerian dress, all covered up, without back fat hanging out. Rickey- Not only does he wear camo, he wears clashing camo as an all over outfit. I'm thinking this whole trip wasn't about meeting Melissa, he just wanted time away from his children and responsiblities and failures of everyday life to have a boinkfest. I love that he's all" I want to be a gentleman and not pressure her....." cause he just totally planned this trip without her input and showed up and demanded she meet with him and drop everything to hang out with him. It seems like tricky rickey has another lady in line . Shopping for stepmoms in columbia. Tarik-ki tikki tavi- Hazel can do so much better. I love that he wore his best pharroh tank top to meet her parents. No one knows how to make a great first impression like this bozo. Yes, the church service was weird and too long. Tar pit needs to understand that this is ingrained in Hazel, she will likely carry some of her beliefs with her and might even want to go to church if she comes to America. If she's away from home, lonely, etc.... she might draw into that sort of community and have deeper beliefs even if she seems non religious away from her parents NOW. Jesse/Darcy- Dang her sister is the younger looking /prettier twin! Jesse is always threatening to just full leave. Then leave! No one wants to see them! I usually tune these two out, but I wanted to see the house they were staying in- it was very pretty and definitely the star of their segment. Even if I believed this was a real actual relationship; they would never make it- they are fighting over how to eat pizza and elbows so there is no hope. Karine/Pol- I hate Paul more each week. Probably the only way Karine can deal with him is to tune him out by focusing on social media and not caring about anything. She does act like a 12 year old, but he probably likes it. Her parents always seem so nice and caring. They probably know she'll have a better life in the US so they okayed the relationship. The Lucy show- I really didnt think Jon's sister was rude at all. She probably knows and has dealt with Jon's behavior and girlfriends forever and I do think she's tired of it and was trying to warn rachel . And yes, Rachael needs a makeover; you can go to nice goodwills and get really cute flattering outfits so she has no excuse to wear baggy t-shirts and jeans every single day. Unless that's what she likes/prefers to wear. 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/48/#findComment-4630556

The tact is not really there at all, but it's probably better she learn that now. In a lot of developing nations, "fat" is used as at the very least just a descriptive word, and sometimes, a compliment. Conversely, sometimes "skinny" is an insult. Jamaica is a country that is unfortunately now buying into "thin fever", where they refer to larger women as "fluffy girls" now -- not always admiringly. But when my husband and I went to Jamaica 18 times between 1986 and 2007, I didn't have to be self-conscious at all, because "women of size" were then regarded as attractive. I had a colleague from Jamaica who was very thin and she told me everyone in her extended family in Jamaica thought she had worms because she was so thin. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/48/#findComment-4630634

Kangatush August 30, 2018 Share August 30, 2018 Speaking of things being producer driven... I've been thinking of Jon and Lucy. I am in no way saying there's anything improper (I think the board can be quick to jump that way), but the whole thing is weird. Not his kid and he's only known her through Skype and pictures, but he loves her? I know it doesn't take blood to have love, but it usually takes proximity. And not wanting her to call him dad? What should she call him, Jon? Like that won't make her ask questions. To me, fathers give you biological life, dads raise you. Sometimes they're the same man, some times they aren't. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/48/#findComment-4631608

And if it's what she wants to wear in her everyday life; then great, but she was going to meet the love of her life and be on television. I don't know; a pretty top, a nice skirt......I mean I thought she dressed sorta cute back in Arizona and when she went out with friends. Maybe she thought it was going to be really cold. Maybe as they show her as time goes on and she and Jon "date" she'll show that she brought more to wear. I also think Tarik and Angela need makeovers. Maybe that can be a new TLC show; make me over before I meet my internet soul mate.

It's just that I would like one, just one example of a transgender person meeting this tragedy in the mainstream news. Surely if it's accessible you could help us out here? I haven't been able to find any stories, but please educate me by showing an example. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandon_Teena He was female to male but the Brandon Teena story is pretty famous. This was 1993 though. It doesn’t seem that widespread of a thing to me (it seems like there are other groups of people with a way higher chance of violence against them) but it happens. I never thought Melissa was actually trans, if anything I think it’s just part of the scam if she turns out to be a guy. (I haven’t watched the latest episode yet.)

The people on that show are either blind their faults or are completely sweeping them under the rug because it’s just easier to get someone from another country who is poor or struggling. This! Definitely this. I wonder if Angela’s grammatically incorrect English will soon bother Michael, his is far superior. Michael seems downright refined compared to her tacky ass which no one would assume given their age difference.

Also, she has a balding spot near her right temple. I notice that she always pulls her bangs to make sure its covered. Even at church when she was on the floor (I think) and her hair was flung about, she was holding her hair to cover that spot.

And since she’s ballsy and direct, she should have asked for one. She could benefit from a parasite clense, probiotics and some good multivitamins.
