I've been watching some episodes for the first time in my life
Forget all those thirsty women on his insta and people going wild over Twitter for him, not saying they're all false but some are just legit virtue signalling. It's undeniable he has the best personality out of all the guys, but coming from a south Asian background and at that height with the most sluttiest of sluts possible is the worst combination possible.
He is easily the publics favourite. He's literally done nothing wrong. If he was a white and had an extra few inches he would've won the show easily.
This is a pretty good analysis of Nas.
Literally got deleted moments ago by moderators
Luckily I had a browser opened and I have cut + pasted it here:
"Nas is getting the princess, unicorn edit. He's being pidgeon-holed into that role by the Islanders, too.
Someone like Shaughna is is very bad for his psyche as she plays into all of this under the guise of 'fun'. I like Shaughna though but she is limited by her insecure view of herself which she projects onto others. Blurting out the 'sisterzone' as she likes to call it just keeps this all alive. She used to be overweight but felt she had to change that drastically (and she had surgery to remove excess skin to according to an article), so I believe she looks at people through the lens of 'if you don't fit the specific criteria for looks, you are unworthy as I was before', and she applies that to him.
In some ways, Nas feels compelled to act accordingly - if he doesn't, he'll be seen as a creep given how harshly he was rejected all-around - the angle of opportunity to flirt for him is so, so minimal.
The truth is, Nas IS a man and should be seen as such. Anton was friendzoned a lot? Well Anton had the 'right' kind of darker features and girls had initial attraction to him and he wasn't as socially intelligent as Nas. Dr. Alex friendzoned a lot? He is from an entirely different social circle and doesn't have social skills or relatability as Nas.
To add to this, Love Island has played into this, giving us that edit. Anyone new who may come through may not see Nas as a legitimate romantic option due to the programming. The problem with this type of edit is that all good things come to an end. If Nas acts out of sorts in any kind of way similar to that of any of the other male islanders, the public will turn on him with a venom. The public are very fickle boneheads and unforgiving. We've seen this too many times.
He is 5'6-5'7. That is undoubtedly an 'undesirable' height for a guy according to conventional, especially manufactured media standards, but we are hearing a great deal of 'but you're short' compared to previous seasons. Kem Cetinay never received this as much, nor did Nathan Massey - the two winners of the previous seasons. This points towards what I already thought was the case - a societal desexualization of the far eastern asian and indian subcontinental men. Where
people will make a great deal of criticism on who they are and what they look like in ways other than race, at a disproportionate rate to other races.
Quite concerning is it that people can lay into the heights of others, but never dare to mention other aspects of looks like a womans weight. Why are short people allowed to be trash talked for something they can't even change?
Interestingly we are seeing Siannese open to black and mixed race guys even if they look worse than Nas (i.e the new guy), but it's socially ok for Siannese because black guys are fetishized in society (which is a racial problem in of itself). Nas has a good looking face and he is physically fit, but it seems to them that he doesn't have the right kind of 'dark features'.
There's only one truly tall guy in there, and that's Connagh. Everyone else is in the 5'9-6' range. Not exactly 'tall' - AND they're always shorter than they claim. Luke is 5'8, one inch taller and got a lot of interest. Check
celebheights.com to see people scrutinize the real heights of celebrities for example.
The only other group who experience this today to this level are, black women. Leanne is stunning, but none of the newcoming white or mixed men have ever said her name. It's considered a success if even black men show interest in them.
Nas could be gone tonight, but this problem will still continue but no one will try to dismantle the privilege. They have to be the greatest showmen to be noticed.
p.s I'm not Asian, I am a Sephardic Jew and I'm a whisker under 6'"
