The Traitors has sparked a Sєxism row after a ‘weird and nonsensical’ decision during Wednesday’s episode of the BBC show.

Call centre manager Minah, 29, ruffled a few feathers after some comments she made to host Claudia Winkleman. 

The previous instalment of the The Traitors saw Minah banish her fellow Traitor Linda, which meant that she had to recruit a new person to join her side. 

During a conversation with Claudia, Minah said: ‘I only wanna pick a female. 

‘And I just feel like sisterhood means something. There was no like, backstabbing.’  

But viewers watching at home all took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to say the same thing. 

The Traitors have sparked a Sєxism row after a ‘weird and nonsensical’ decision ‘robs clever player of opportunity’ – but who’s in the wrong?

Claudia asked Minah to pick another Faithful to join her on the dark side 

One wrote: ‘Sick of this “sisterhood” nonsense. If it was a “brotherhood,” it would likely be labelled Sєxist.’

Another added: ‘It’s a bit Sєxist, Minah only wanting to pick a woman as a traitor.’ 

A third chimed in: ‘What a weirdly Sєxist comment from Minah about having to recruit a woman because they wouldn’t stab her in the back.’

‘This game is absolutely Sєxist! The blood sisterhood – give it a rest,’ a fourth tweeted.

A fifth said: ‘Poor decision by Minah… Charlotte has been at risk time and time again, there won’t be any sisterhood there and will stab you in the back. Oh dear Minah… #TheTraitors.’

The Traitors’ Charlotte accepted Minah’s offer to join her as a Traitor during Thursday’s episode.

Minah was the only Traitor left in the game and forced to recruit a new partner during Wednesday’s episode after fan-favourite Linda was banished from the castle.

Many fans watching at home labelled the move ‘Sєxist’ 

Determined to keep the ‘sisterhood’ intact and form a group of female Traitors, after last year’s all-male group, Minah was torn between Charlotte, Lisa and Frankie – before ultimately choosing to recruit the fake-Welsh Faithful.

Minah revealed her idenтιтy to Charlotte, before offering the ultimatum to join the Traitors or be murdered and out of the game.

Charlotte quickly accepted the offer and joined Minah in the castle tower to commit their first murder as a duo. They opted to murder Anna. 

But fans cared more about Charlotte continuing her Welsh accent in front of Minah, with one penning on X: ‘Obsessed with Charlotte still committing to the Welsh accent in front of Minah’;

‘Why’s Charlotte still pretending to be Welsh even to Minah’ 

On Wednesday, the decision baffled viewers as they warned Charlotte was likely to ‘stab her in the back’ – as they shared who they thought would have been a better option.

One contestant the group now sees as a sure-thing Faithful is Jake, who had been vocal about his suspicions over Linda since the very beginning.

As a result, fans slammed Minah’s decision to recruit Charlotte as they claimed that Jake would be a far better option and could have used his backing from the rest of the group to protect her.

Taking to X, formerly Twitter, fans wrote: ‘Should’ve picked Jake. He’s just caught a traitor so zero heat on him. She’s already thrown two female traitors under the bus so she’ll probably do it again,’;

‘Was anyone else screaming at the tv “PICK JAKE”, Minah’s had a shocker there,’;

‘Why not pick Jake? Everyone is now totally convinced he’s faithful,’; ‘Minah choosing Charlotte instead of Leanne or Jake

‘Surely Jake was the ONLY sensible choice to recruit!?’; ‘Charlotte was NOT a good choice,’;

‘Poor decision by Minah… Charlotte has been at risk time and time again, there won’t be any sisterhood there and will stab you in the back. Oh dear Minah…’;

‘I would’ve tried to recruit Jake. I think he’s the least suspicious choice and with the murder happening straight after, there wouldn’t be indication your adding a traitor But Charlotte is a strong choice as well,’;

‘I fear Minah may have made a mᴀssive boo boo by choosing Charlotte.’

Viewers were left ‘gutted’ after fan-favourite Linda was banished from the game on Wednesday, following a tense Round Table.

Minah, 29, and Linda, 70, were the only two Traitors left in the compeтιтion after Armani was banished from the castle .

But Linda received the most votes at the latest banishment, with the contestants going wild when she revealed herself as a Traitor.

It came after fan-favourite Linda was banished from the castle following days of suspicions 

Reacting to her exit, one devastated fan wrote on social media platform x: ‘Nooo what will we do without Linda’;

‘Mourning our queen Linda’; ‘Gutted that Linda has gone’

She become a huge hit with viewers as she attempts to hoodwink the Faithfuls, but has slipped up one too many times.

After host Claudia Winkleman secretly chose her first three Traitors , Linda visibly reacted to the presenter when she said the тιтle out loud.

It was a move noticed by several Faithfuls, and was soon brought up at the round table, leading others to question her loyalties.

The Traitors is available to stream on BBC iPlayer.
