I thought it was pretty ballsy of him (no pun intended) to discuss this openly on last night's show. Maybe he hadn't intended on it, but when the conversation came up he wasn't going to lie. The conversation seemed to be going well, but I got the sense that he became more uncomfortable the more Emma was cracking jokes about it. She did seem to be prying a bit much, and with Hannah too, but I do think Emma is harmless and she did provoke an interesting conversation to watch.

Fair dues to him, nice to see someone walk the walk as well as talk the talk

I'm not a Christian but fair play to him. I can respect people living true to their own standards and he doesn't feel overly preachy about it either.

I respect him and Hanah for being open about it.

I really like her, I think she'll be part of some veyy interesting debates and conversations.

[Niamh.]

Yeah I like Hanah as well, need to see a bit more of her though

[Crimson Dynamo]

I find it hard to understand a word she says

I don't know how old he is - perhaps 22 or something but if I was a virgin at 22 I wouldn't admit it.

Perhaps his thrusting is involuntary, maybe it's his penis telling him it's ready when he is.

Less embarrassing then saying you lost it at 14 in an alleyway

Very true and tbh Marcello having an experience like that at a very young age is probably partly why he continues to have a pretty warped view of sex well into his 30s

[thesheriff443]

Got nothing against him and his choice
But I couldn’t imagine waiting until I was married only to find out I didn’t like that flavour

Yeah most likely

[Strictly Jake]

Yeah respect to him. I'm from a Christian faith to and I was a virgin until I married my wife when I was 22. She's the only woman I've ever been with, both in that sense and being the only woman I've ever dated. It's pretty rare these days and there is something nice about it in my opinion

[GoldHeart]

Yeah it was nice to see more of him opening up, it's a very private thing...but he seemed ok with talking about it. Himself and Hannah value their belief & faith ,and the fact their willing to wait until marriage, shows they see the act of sex as more than something casual...and they want it to have a purity to it .

After all think of all the regrets people have who have lost their virginity too easily, both Segun & Hannah want it to have meaning.

Emma was curious,but I don't think Segun is use to conversations about sex. It was interesting hearing his story about a girlfriend he had, who didn't understand his beliefs.

havent seen the episode, but big brother shouldnt be promoting such a messed up lifestyle choice.
guy wont even be able to get hard with all the christian shame he must have.
sex should be enjoyed its 2024.

Can I ask why it's embarrassing for a man to openly share he's a Virgin? , but it's fine for a woman to be a Virgin?. If anything Marcello should be embarrassed at confessing to losing his virginity at age 14 !!! In an alleyway!!, as others have said....that probably explains Marcello's warped view on relationships & sex .

He is clearly still a virgin by choice though, it's not like some kind of incel thing or where he can't get laid. Admitting that it's something you are choosing for yourself isn't really embarrassing.

I don't think they were promoting it, they just showed a conversation where he spoke about it. I agree that a healthy sex life shouldn't be shamed and religious shaming around sex can have very negative consequences, but there was nothing that he said which suggested he had been shamed into remaining a virgin. For some people it is just a personal choice and I respect that.
