[The series] spent so long turning Randolph and Underwood's relationship into an example of a man risking it all to prove his love for a woman... there are few things more terrifying than a partner who can't handle rejection. Go to Full Review

I don't understand what point the producers are trying to make here by having all of these women relay whether or not they've ever had sex. It's just awkward and comes across as a little shame-y. Go to Full Review

02/25/2019 I don't care who I sleep with. Why would I care who you do? See more 02/25/2019 Talk about treating women like meat.. this is trash, so is the Bachelorette.. See more 09/05/2018 Colton Underwood is officially my favorite bachelor so far and this is my favorite bachelor season so far. I loved all of the celebrity guest stars that appeared on this season. I love Colton because he is such a nice and caring person. I love how he is not afraid to show and express his emotions. I hope that he and Cassie have a happy life together. I hope that Cassie doesn't break his heart again because I will be pissed off because he deserves to find love and to find someone who loves him back. See more Read all reviews
