BB2 Elizabeth - Scottish: sophisiticated, articulate and worldly, not drunkard etc
BB2 Dean: Black/ mixed: professional, intellectual and geeky, not into rap or gangster culture, not homophobic

Almost every black male since BB2 Dean (bar legend Derek BB6 and John Tickle BB4) has been a rap-loving 'urban' stereotype.

Found BB2 Brian D annoying as a camp cliche of a gay man, but I presume thered me masculine gay men in later series, never happened.
Yes, BB does like it's stereotypes. They really seem to do a disservice to black women too, with people like Charlie and that one that got kicked out for making threats.

I think that BB do an excellent job of picking the very worst of each and every type of stereotypical type - and I mean as in gender, sexuality, race, culture, you name it: they manage to find the very worst - and then for good measure: they throw in one or two normal everyday type people - just to see how well the 'normal everyday' ones can handle it.

Seriously.

BB6 Vanessa - no descript but bitchy
BB6 Makosi - a diva but had have some charisma. Most successful coming 3rd despite awful boos and hate filled interview with Davina
BB7 Dawn - moany mother figure who wanted to leave and apparently stank of BO
BB8 Charley - aggressive and argumentative
BB8 Kara Louise - shy forgetable new HM who added nothing to the mix
BB9 Alex - extremely aggressive and kicked out
BB9 Sylvia - snidey and bitchy
BB10 Sofia - started of likeable but got into a mega bitch war with Saffia
BB10 Noirin - sexy minx who everyone fancied but was arrogant enjoyed playing with people's emotions

You can't lay all the blame at the doors of thuggish yoof though...Leigh Francis (a.k.a. Keith Lemon) frequently refers to "smashing the back doors in" of Holly or Fern on his show

It's called new misogyny disguised as sexual banter when it's really designed to put women in their sexual place.

Agree - Jay is not a youth. He's 30 in about just over 2 1/2 years

yup lets be clear here. His talk about women and sex is nothing to do with being from the North East.

Keith Lemon has a lot to answer for with his smash her back doors in, it's started a whole new way in which men talk about women.
