It did, but the males generally in BB17 were quite strong bar Sam and Alex.

Jackson, Jason, Andy, Hughie, Ryan, Marco all provided something, and in general the Top 6 was one of the strongest ever finals IMO, all 6 characters were stronger than previous finals. With males of a type of BB12-BB16 caliber, they wouldn't have placed above Jayne and Evelyn.
Those 2 would have both come Top 4 in BB15 and BB16 for certain. I reckon it would have been an all female Top 4 in BB15 if that were the case with Helen, Asheeigh, Jayne and Evelyn... it's laughable how BB15 the likes of Ash and Pav made the final, that's how terrble the male lineup was there.... same with BB16.

Maybe I meant more my crowd reaction with certain people, Jayne, Evelyn, Tiffany, Megan, Renee, Casey would have been booed on C4.

Watch C4 evictions again and watch 99% of women being booed, whereas on C5 it's more like 70%. The CBB13 final was one of the most positive ever with 5 of the 6 getting cheers (which included 2 females) and one getting mixed (Luisa). Whereas on C4 from BB4 onwards most females were getting booed in their series.

I don't think the sexism is as strong. An example of strong sexism from viewers was stuff like Rachael being evicted in Week 1 of BB11 where John James was beimg worshiped when he was a monster over Rachael who was harmless. I don't think that would happen again and go completely go in the males favour anymore if someone similar. The fact that an unknown model Casey came out looking better than a famous boyband singer Lee in both crowd reaction and the Vote To Win was certainly a big thing.
