you mean this one?

My SC

That's not Spain, it's Denmark

or do you mean another one?

she is crying in the PI in the same dress and saying that she feels the pressure, everyone is going to judge her by her decision


source

so what does this mean?
does it mean that her decision will be seen unpopular?
she involves people to judge her aka maybe the black community?
if so does it mean we shall see some racial issues drama?

I am sure she is not naive to think that no matter decision she will make, she will be unpopular no matter what because she cannot please everyone.... so imo, the decision she is talking about will be more difficult than the usual... and the only thing I am thinking is color of skin. Does it mean that she may keep only white guys to the end??

I hope not. I would hate to see some racial drama. Personalities drama yes, although boring to be seen ad nauseam, but racial would not be fun at all to see. imo What I love in this season is most especially the diverse and more mature guys...

so this drama would happen right before going to spain (if we establish the Switz/Sweden/Spain trip in this order)... reducing the number of guys a lot. imo

Unfortunately, Rachel feels that she has the added burden of representing the much under-represented in this franchise, black community. So, if she is keeping more white guys that black, she knows it will be perceived as letting that community down. She also knows that people can be brutal on SM and is bracing for it. JMO

@moonchild I agree with you that people will count the white versus the black and it is a shame. This should be all about love only.

But I really wonder about her outburst in this PI. "I will be judged". Bi-racial relationship is not easy like any other relationship but bi-racial gives more pressure IMO. It should not and it sucks but it is.

Oops, my bad! Yes, that was the dress and PI I was thinking of. So NOT Spain, but rather Denmark. I, too, got the feeling that her comments about 'being judged' had to do with her decision to eliminate some of the African American men, because, let's face it, they're all judged on their decisions. This would be the first season, however, where we have an African American woman who may just feel more connected with the caucasian men. Yes, I could see that ruffling a few feathers.

Right now, she has the following black men remaining: Frederick (who IMO is a goner very soon due to her childhood memories of him) and Demario (who is a goner due to the GF).

Then there are Anthony (1-1 date in CA given a rose), Will (1-1 in Sweden, rose?), Eric (1-1 date in Denmark, rose?), Kenny and Josiah. Of these 5 men, I could see Anthony as having the best shot with her. To me, IMO, none of the others seem like they would be that great of a match, for various reasons (my own reasons, ). But Anthony is younger (I think).

Just a comment: I like Kenny and Anthony's voices, but the sexiest one of all IMO is Bryan's. I could put his limo exit, first bilingual chit chat, and FIR acceptance vocals on a continuous loop and play them in my ear all night. To me, his voice is like a purring kitten. And few things in life get me quite like a purring kitten! But I digress.....

@MiaHawk totally agree with you here about the non connection with Josiah, Fred, Will, Anthony and Eric. Her body language is just not there. The only one she is seen having fun is Anthony. I think Fred is a good guy but nobody can force anyone, if the heart is not there, it is just not there. We forgot kenny but same for him. no connection.

I think Peter deep voice is sexy but Bryan for me is like a charming rascal and he knows how to play piano eh?

So excited to finally see some more of these guys tonight! If I am right with my scorecard, of the main players, Bryan and Anthony will not have a date tonight. So bummer there, but hoping to learn to like some more guys. Also hoping for some great previews to work on! Is anyone going to be online during the program?

It will be a middle of the night for me too.
Hey @sophienette
Still in France?

I'm watching Rach season unspoiled and i'm so loving it.
I was laughing so hard during first epi.
I will join sleuthing after epi 3 cause I just like to get to know them and pick my top 4 or 6 before coming here.
After only one epi, I can say that Rach is right up there with Ali and Jasmine as my all time favorite bachette ever. She might even be my top 1 but we'll see how the season goes.
She is just so real, fun, expressive and beautiful and smart and everything in between.

Oh I almost forgot why I writing this post.
Do we have live viewing links? Where can I find that pretty please?
