The internet was split in two after one Big Brother Mzansi housemate used the term “molest” on the show
The internet was split in two after one Big Brother Mzansi housemate used the term “molest” on the show yesterday evening.
Many internet users took to X (the app formerly known as Twitter) to share their thoughts on the matter. A lot of these users urged Big Brother to disqualify the housemate, Yolanda Mukondeleli Monyai, for using an inappropriate sexual term against another housemate.
X users went as far as comparing the incident to Bravo B’s incident which got him disqualified.
One user wrote, “If they don’t disqualify Yolanda for what she said we need Bravo B back in the house with immediate effect! It’s the same case.”

Another one wrote that when women make such comments, they are always protected.
A woman made these comments on live TV, and all her female supporters are defending her by saying that the term “molestation” can have different interpretations, Even Big Brother attempted to shield her by adjusting her microphone. #BBMzansi #Molest pic.twitter.com/uqbCZhO6UI

While this debate continued, other users shared the definitions of molest and how the term is supposed to be used: “Molest also means annoying someone. Yolanda is known for annoying the housemates.”

Another user wrote that the word is sexual only when used by a man but when used by a female, it means annoy.
I think what we need to understand here is that molest means to sexually assault when said by a man but it doesn’t carry the same meaning when Yolanda says it because she meant to ‘annoy’…lol ok?#BBMzansi pic.twitter.com/DFVHNVrfEE
