Yes, I can't see Dean, given the way the character has developed just meekly allowing Stacey to boot him out from his own flat! And where IS Mo living? Good question.

[QUOTE=Dazzle;814020]Aaarghh!!! Weak woman alert!!! :wall:
What is it with so many women in EE falling at the feet of deadbeat men? First, Jane is falling for Ian all over again even after he treated her as little more than a skivvy during their first marriage. She also knows he recently used a prostitute! :sick: What is possessing her? Then there's silly Summerhayes, who goes back to Max after he undermined her professionally and got her the sack. He even admits he's weak and selfish! I suppose we know she's none too bright since she had an affair with a suspect, but Jane doesn't have that excuse.

It isnt just EE tho. A lot of female characters
in various Soaps start off strong and then
become feeble nitwits.
I think we are supposed to think that its
acceptable for women to be drippy
doormats and it probably is to men
who cant deal with any other sort!
I know its not real life but surveys
shows that a higher% of very young
women accept abuse (mental&
physical)as "normal" in relationships
than ever before. When the tide should
be turning the other way.
It does make me think that the
constant drip-drip of once strong
characters being bedazzled by
weaker men - must contribute in
some way.
And at the risk of being heightist
- the men are usually smaller.
Hasn't Mo gone off to Spain or somewhere to visit Charlie Slater?
The way she suddenly seems to pop up and then vanish is a mystery. Might have a secret lover tucked away ....:)Quote:

I agree it's all the soaps, though EE seems to be the worst to me. We have the likes of Whitney and Lauren apparently constantly chasing unsuitable men, and the recent unedifying spectacle of Sharon and Shirley fighting tooth and sharpened claw over serial abuser Phil. Sharon even married him after learning he set two thugs on her!! What a comedown for two otherwise excellent female characters. :wall:Quote:

As much as I dislike Kat and Alfie and their storyline at the moment, I am annoyed at Kat not allowing Alfie to see the kids, she is no angel either her affair with Derek didn't help them and Alfie was an idiot and fool for the fire but he didn't think anyone was in the house and he does love the kids
Yes don't like Jane being weak and getting back with Ian
Absolutely, tammy. Using your children as a weapon to get back at your partner in that way is, in my opinion, as bad - if not worse - as setting fire to the house in the first place. Children should never never be used as pawns in that way.
I absolutely agree with you, and was very careful not to do so with my own child.Quote:

However, going back to my point about weak women in EE, I'm sure Kat'll forgive him in the end... :thumbsdow
