Which five men exit 'The Bachelorette'? Fans say Katie Thurston's Operation WOWO is to blame

A record five suitors are about to exit Katie Thurston's season of 'The Bachelorette' and fans joke it's because of no masturbating challenge

Spoilers for 'The Bachelorette' Season 17 Episode 6

Katie Thurston was and continues to be hailed as one of the best leads ever on 'The Bachelorette'. But for the past couple of weeks, fans and viewers do not seem to be vibing with the decisions Thurston is making on the show. For instance, eliminating Thomas Jacobs after subjecting him to some brutal insults at the rose ceremony a couple of weeks ago did not go down well with fans. They argued everyone comes on the show with hopes of making it on 'The Bachelor' and the fact that Jacobs was honest about it which resulted in his elimination has left fans wondering if Thurston made an intelligent choice. 

Thurston also allowed Blake Moynes on her season despite the fact that it's almost mid-season. Fans questioned this decision as well considering Moynes appeared on Clare Crawley's season first, then stayed for Tayshia Adams' season and Thurston's season - all in a year's span. Spoilers by Reality Steve reveal Moynes is the one that Thurston chose to get engaged with at the end. Coming back to what's about to happen in the upcoming episode - Thurston is expecting her suitors to stop masturbating. This coming from someone who walked into 'The Bachelor' mansion toting a vibrator is being deemed crass by fans and some even joked that the five men who are going to leave her season in the July 12 episode (at least that's what the trailer is hinting at) is because of this challenge.

Which five men quit Katie Thurston's season of 'The Bachelorette'?

Judging from the season's trailer, we are going to take a wild guess that one of those men is Michael Allio who could probably leave because his son believes his dad doesn't miss him. Reality Steve usually has all the spoilers and he does reveal it well in advance but this time he's holding back and we will know whoever's leaving for sure once the episode airs on July 12. However, fans have already taken their guess that it is Operation WOWO which Kaitlyn Bristowe explains translates to 'Week Off Wank Off'. This does disappoint the men in the house and they begin with their 'no nut' jokes, however, the fans are surprisingly not laughing this time and many have branded this challenge as "tacky, embarrassing and stupid"

"So THAT’S why 5 dudes leave….." read a comment under the video uploaded to the show's official Instagram handle. "This is absolutely ridiculous!! What an embarrassment this season is," read another comment. "That explains why 5 of them left," another fan commented. "So stupid. She can’t make those kind of demands. That’s abuse and very immature!!" another angry fan wrote. "Stupidest thing ever. Are these grown adults or junior high students. What does this have to do with finding a husband. It's so immature and just ruined the season for me," read another comment.
