Is there irrefutable evidence that the viewers will not allow black women to win? No, not really.

You put 9 out of 10 white people in a house with a black person, and how likely is it the black person will win? An even slimmer chance when 50% of them are floaters.
Can't really predict this stuff but who knows, but things happen and get judged differently and a black female never winning is going to get people discussing, yes Raph talks about this and did stats about it but he isn't the only one like Vicky said it's common on tibb, Pete even made a thread about it and people agreed with what he said.

Raph isn't in the best position to be making that kind of claim. He's biased as the person "robbed" of the winning title.
Raph never said he was the rightful winner he was talking about Deborah as i said. The isabelle issue is recent months later and it seems it's mostly Chanelle who has the bigger issue with Isabelle. So her winning being an issue seems unlikely

Were you not aware that well-groomed half-Asians who come from affluent upbringings have a historically bad track record on BBUK?!?!?!

you have to ask him, first asian american male to be final 2 who knows idk, not going to assume stuff because it could not be true and some fans like bb odds stuff but what Raph says is an opinion hold by some of TIBB and it's no big deal and i guess you will have to wait to see if this Isabelle stuff is actually true and keep an eye on their twitters for more and they all still follow each other.

Raph's the only (partially) Asian-American male to have even been on the show, there weren't any "odds" for him to defy

First American-Asian final 2 and also the first American-Asian altogether?

That's a pretty impressive track record.

I think you'll find that Mandy defied the odds by being the first ever randy person to be evicted first

because most of the cast are white

but this was a diverse season and Deborah did tell Hannah they beat the stats etc and the odds did break by Hannah not getting evicted on VTE when some of tibb think she was obviously going.

Also I loved Chanelle but unless you lick her arsehole I imagine she complains so just cause Issy isn’t obsessed with her she probably got the hump!

Exactly you can’t complain on a show that’s so messy anyone could be evicted at anytime they did well to make it as far as they did and to say they didn’t win because of the colour of their skin takes away their achievements

Not surprising in a country that is 80% white.

A black person making the final 3 more often than not is more impressive than it sounds.

Let’s face it anyway it’s better to be iconic than win and most of the iconic housemates were black

6/18 not really often. A black female winning will be big deal on tibb which was going to be Lateysha and by super fans international.
