I came away from that conversation with this view.... Bayleigh is so fixated on her skin color being the only one allowed to be offended that sh is flat out refusing, or incapable of, seeing the forest for the trees. I get that she's reminded (daily?) that her skin color is different than those of her classmates. Being different in any way in high school, middle school, grade school, is not fun. Regardless if it's skin color or a disability, or overweight, etc. But she wasn't the only student who was reminded daily how different they were from everyone else. I'm wiling to bet, just from what I've seen of her, that she freely engages in fat shaming peeople without a second thought.
And as much as I'm not JC fan (I don't dislike him either...but it's becoming a thinner line each show), he probably had to deal with a lot more. From another country, and immigrants are treated so well, aren't they, here in the all welcoming America, and has his growth issue (or lack of growth), and let's toss in being gay, again, in oh so welcoming America.... he's got 3 things against him always. Versus her one. Neither was right, neither was wrong. And viewers likely learned something from that conversation. But Bayleigh took it too far I think. Way too far. She totally dismissed JC's feelings in her zealousness to ensure hers were heard loud and clear by one and all in the house

What the heck? I was so frustrated with the argument between JC and Bailey... it was obvious to me all he was trying to do is make a comparison between what is offensive to him as what would be offensive to her. (even with his language barrier) I don't think it was fair of her to say the she could use the word in a question and he couldn't use it in his "statement". He wasn't trying to call her that word. To me both did the same thing, but she kept saying what he did was different just because of the way he formed the sentence.
