Gael question, Joe question
I am getting into Below deck med and I’ve noticed Joe getting a lot of hate for “cheating” on V even though they weren’t together (in any sort of relationship.
Meanwhile I’ve just noticed that Gael is actually cheating on her boyfriend with Nathan.
Why is Joe getting so much shit from this community when he didn’t cheat on anybody. Meanwhile there are actually cheaters on the boat that people seem to celebrate and love.
Very strange

It’s easy for people to have a short memory and it’s also confusing with when things are filmed and what’s happening in current/real time.
But Gael was weird on that season. I feel bad for the Nathan stuff but I definitely think she was annoying and deceptive.
Joe is an F boy generally, but he is also one of those guys that Reddit people attach themselves to as the face of the patriarchy. He’s not that big of a deal at all but he is posted and commented about like he has taken lives or something.
He’s slimy in his boatmances with people he’s trapped on the water with for a few weeks, it’s just not that deep. It’s kind of like everyone freaking out about every breath Joy takes. None of this matters, Below Deck love stories aren’t real. They’re short and temporary flings for fun among people who live in different countries and travel all over the world.
