The majority of viewers of Big Brother tend to be female adolescents who tend to hero worship the guys. Also, like other females,they tend to be highly critical of other females. This is probably why in the majority of cases, when a girl goes up against a guy or a number of guys, the girl gets evicted.

The archetypical YEF will put a vote to evict number of any female contestant on speed dial on their cell phones in order to get rid of the brazen hussy who got her grubby mits on the gorgeous guy that the YEF's fantasise about.

I hope this helps

Thanks, great explanation! I work in marketing outside of the UK and so I wasnt familiar with this UK terminology but I quite find it fascinating as it explains alot of my questiosn regarding why all the girls get voted out first... Now I KNOW!! When you think about it, its really quite sad, but even in the adult professional world you find that females tend to go against other females. It is really unfortunate given that we already have odds stacked against us and instead of unifying, we tear eachother down.

Also the YEFs are a good target for advertisers, seeing as they spend more money on entertainment (music, concerts, Justin beaver LOL)

I would make a big brother with all females then LOL.. what happened to Girl Power!!!
