Love Island Fans Shocked By Boy's 'Childish' Comment After Challenge

Love Island continued on Tuesday night and once again, Twitter was left reeling by the boys' reaction to the topic of girls kissing other girls.

In the first challenge of the series 'Anything to Declare', the Islanders were tasked with guessing each other's shocking secrets.

Paige revealed she had kissed 10 girls in one night. When the Islanders returned to the villa, the boys debriefed on Paige's confession while munching ice pops and Luca quipped: "She should send me the pictures".

The shocked reactions from the boys has received some backlash on social media, with women on Twitter calling the comments 'childish' and 'fetishizing'.

During the ice breaker in the first episode, Amber was tasked with saying a chat up line to another girl as written on the card and Luca said 'you can't do that' likely in response to Amber being a female.

One viewer shared in response to today's challenge: "The #LoveIslandboys saying ‘send me the pictures’ about paige kissing girls just shows that women loving women are so sexualised in our society. us wlw do not kiss for men."

While another Love Island fan shared: "Not luca saying girls can’t kiss girls, and then saying he wants to see the pics of paige kissing girls in the same 24 hours, grow up".

A third wrote: "Luca is so gross asking to send the pics of paige kissing girls, wasn't he just chatting that amber and tasha couldn’t kiss last night ?? DURING PRIDE MONTH ??"

Love Island winner Amber Gill also chimed in and wrote: "The boys being shocked bisexual women exist. Just wait till they find out girls do more than just kiss!”

However, it's important not to assume someone's sexuality regardless of who they kiss. One Twitter user pointed this out and shared: "Btw Paige can kiss 10 girls and still not be bisexual, let’s not start labelling ppl pls"

In the challenge Luca and Tasha locked lips for the first time as their connection continues to grow. Speaking in the Beach Hut about the kiss with Tasha, Luca said: “The snog with Tash, it’s up there! I wasn’t moaning but it would have been nice if we were on our own and not with everyone around us.” 

Love Island continues Wednesday at 9pm on ITV 2.
