I set my picks the first weeks are always the hardest Same. It's basically just trying to remember the faces you've seen in the promos 😂

I go to bed super early these days, but I will try to keep up each week with this one.

I’m going to try again....just couldn’t force myself to keep watching the Bachelorette hot mess!
I know, they all kind of are, but that was the first time I couldn’t even make it 2 episodes.

The convo he just had with Chris made me like him a little. From the promos, I wasn’t sure how long it would take for me to root for him in this.

I see Reality Steve (I follow twitter now since he doesn't do spoilers there) and he of course said something about the prayer and I actually really liked that I think it is great that he is saying up front that it is important to him. He seems real which is refreshing as of lately in this franchise.
Also I felt him on he knows that he is feeling the pressure of his picking of his lady since he is the first black Bachelor and I hope that he continues to follow his heart and that people let him.
I did enjoy that the women were more diverse and looked less similar. I may actually remember names this time.

No names stuck in my head but there are some truly gorgeous women on the show. I was disappointed that he kept that entitled, elitist 21 year old. I hope she’s gone soon.

I feel like Victoria was a producers pick, not his.

Agree that he should be up front in saying what values are important to him. Now it is just a matter of making sure the ones who don’t listen and secretly think they can change a man, being bounced. On the not so similar looking ladies, I was laughing with the blonde, I think Anna, obsessing about possibly not being picked. She used to be the look of the room and it was nice to see her as one of very few.

Rachel, Abigail, Chelsea, Kit and Mari will be in my picks until they grey out. Maybe Jessenia too, I’m trying to recall their interaction.

I hated the bachelorette this season. I watched half of Matt's first episode and am enjoying it, to my surprise.

Someone in one of my bach groups posted an article referencing if the Bachelor is just becoming a Christian dating show, and I don't think that assessment is wrong...

I don’t think so. I think it was mainly Tayshia’s thing with Ivan and then Matt praying that led to this assessment. Hannah B was also in there, honestly I didn’t read it, I just saw the headline lol. I guess we will see if it continues this way. I don’t remember religion being so much on the forefront in past seasons. I’m not saying it’s necessarily a bad thing, but I just hope they can keep it inclusive.

I didn’t mind Kit at all. Maybe I wasn’t paying attention.
I really disliked the vibrator girl esp when she touched someone with it. Even though it’s probably never been used that’s just like super violating. She also seems to be the one calling out someone as a sugar baby or escort in previews and I’m not here for sex worker shaming.

And I agree on the rest, I don’t like that at all.

Did Emily Maynard talk about religion? Sean was a born again virgin, and I’m sure that was religion related. Colton was a virgin, but I don’t think that was related to religion. Hannah B. and Luke P. had that whole conversation about pre-marital sex, but she had a LOT of sex. Remember the “I had sex and Jesus still loves me” quote? Madi Prewett left because Peter slept with two of the final 3. Some of that was related to her religion, but she barely spoke of it, at least on camera, until she was very far into the season. Tayshia wanted someone with similar beliefs as her, and she is a Christian. Matt prayed last night. His social media is very clear that his beliefs play a major role in his life.
So... there has been a lot of discussion on the show recently about religion, but those conversations SHOULD be happening if they are really considering getting married.
Arie is an atheist. I don’t think Kaitlyn has beliefs one way or the other. Andi and Jason are Jewish. There have been other religions beyond Christian, but it has become more of a conversation in recent seasons.
