The so-called houseguest Evil Dick has been featured as a fan favorite for abusing a young woman, Jen Johnson, with threats of rape, insults focused on her sexuality and hopes for her death. His abuse has been so severe, that she has asked to drop out of the competition. This weekend Evil Dick he added homophobia to his repertoire. Yet CBS does nothing while Evil Dick makes young women the target of his misogynistic tirades.

Dear CBS,
I am writing to complain that CBS and BB-8 sponsors are supporting misogyny. The violence and abuse directed towards women on this show is unacceptable. This is not a game and this is not entertainment.
