===Physical violence===
Physical violence of any kind is typically not tolerated by the producers. After an incident occurs, producers or cast members are typically given the choice as to whether a violent housemate can stay due to a contract clause that prohibits violence. After an incident during the [[The Real World: Seattle|Seattle]] season in which Stephen Williams slapped [[Irene McGee]] as she moved out,<ref>{{cite episode|series=[[The Real World: Seattle]]|title=Irene Calls It Quits|season=7|number=15|network=MTV}}</ref> a response to the event was debated by the housemates, who did not witness the incident was viewed a videotape of it. The producers, not wanting to be seen condoning violence, gave the housemates the choice of having him leave, but instead the housemates chose to let him stay, and Williams was ordered to attend an [[anger management]] class.<ref name=SlapAftermath>{{cite episode|series=The Real World: Seattle|title=The Aftermath of 'The Slap'|season=7|number=16|network=MTV}}</ref> During the [[The Real World: Las Vegas|2002–2003 Las Vegas]] season, Brynn Smith and [[Steven Hill (model)|Steven Hill]] got into an altercation in which Smith threw a fork at Hill. Hill contacted the producers who notified him that it was up to the cast to decide on Smith's fate. The cast let Hill make the ultimate decision, and he chose that Smith could stay.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.mtv.com/videos/rw-las-vegas-2002-full-episode-ep-6/1559769/playlist.jhtml |title=Hey, Jealousy: Ep. 06: Full Episode Video|publisher=[[MTV]]|url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090822090515/http://www.mtv.com/videos/rw-las-vegas-2002-full-episode-ep-6/1559769/playlist.jhtml |archive-date=2009-08-22}}</ref> During the [[The Real World: Sydney|Sydney]] season, Trisha Cummings shoved Parisa Montazaran to the ground during a heated altercation. Producers gave Montazaran the choice as to whether Cummings could stay or leave, and she chose that Cummings had to leave.<ref>{{cite episode|series=[[The Real World: Sydney]]|title=Enjoy Your Flight|season=19|number=18|network=MTV|airdate=November 28, 2007}}</ref> [[The Real World: Denver|Denver]] housemates Tyrie Ballard and Davis Mallory got into an explosive altercation that required production to intervene on-screen and separate the two before any violence occurred.<ref name=DenverEpisode4>{{cite episode|series=The Real World: Denver|title=Davis vs Tyrie|season=18|number=4|airdate=December 13, 2006|url=http://www.mtv.com/shows/realworld-season18/episode.jhtml?episodeID=104492#moreinfof|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121111145549/http://www.mtv.com/shows/realworld-season18/episode.jhtml?episodeID=104492#moreinfof|url-status=dead|archive-date=November 11, 2012}}</ref> Similarly, Hollywood castmates William Gilbert and Dave Malinosky got into a similar fight with fellow housemate Greg Halstead that also required intervention from production, as well as Gilbert and Malinosky to undergo anger management.<ref>{{cite episode|series=The Real World: Hollywood|title=Get It On|season=20|number=7|network=MTV}}</ref> During the [[The Real World: Portland|Portland]] season, Nia Moore physically attacked Johnny Reilly in retaliation for Reilly purposely throwing a drink on her during a heated altercation, and later got into a physical altercation with Averey Tressler, when Tressler defended Reilly from an attempt by Moore to attack Reilly again with a hair dryer. Unlike most prior seasons where the one assaulted housemate was given the sole choice as to whether the attacker could stay, the Portland cast had its producers decide that only those not involved in the confrontation could decide whether Moore could stay via a majority vote. They chose to let her stay, and producers did not order Moore to anger management, despite subsequent threats to attack other cast members. As a result, Reilly and Tressler chose to leave the loft during that season's final episode.<ref>{{cite episode|title=Welcome to the Sh*t Show!|series=The Real World: Portland|network=MTV|season=28|number=11|airdate=June 5, 2013|url=http://www.mtv.com/videos/real-world-portland-ep-11-welcome-to-the-sht-show/1708490/playlist.jhtml#series=2211&seriesId=39982&channelId=1|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130609151708/http://www.mtv.com/videos/real-world-portland-ep-11-welcome-to-the-sht-show/1708490/playlist.jhtml#series=2211&seriesId=39982&channelId=1|url-status=dead|archive-date=June 9, 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite episode|title=Out With a Bang!|series=The Real World: Portland|network=MTV|season=28|number=12|airdate=June 12, 2013|url=http://www.mtv.com/videos/real-world-portland-ep-12-out-with-a-bang/1708915/playlist.jhtml#series=2211&seriesId=39982&channelId=1|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130616050922/http://www.mtv.com/videos/real-world-portland-ep-12-out-with-a-bang/1708915/playlist.jhtml#series=2211&seriesId=39982&channelId=1|url-status=dead|archive-date=June 16, 2013}}</ref> In the final three episodes of the [[Real World: Go Big or Go Home|''Go Big or Go Home'']] season, castmates Jenna Thomason and Ceejai Jenkins got into two physical altercations while in the house.
