Well I think it's more down to BB's choice of casting; they had three dimensional women in the BB3 house (Kate and Jade) who were massively popular but then BB4 was just a massive failure so from BB5 onwards they chose caricatures for housemates and as a result there's a typecast for the bitch and a typecast for the romance and a typecast for the dullard. BB just needs to put in some normal looking girls who have something to say for themselves but aren't malicious - there are plenty of those women out there, most women I know don't fit into any of the categories BB has cast for female housemates, I don't know why they don't put some of them in. This series of CBB has shown there's a funny way to go about being a bitch (Luisa) that the public will warm to and an unappealing way to go about being a bitch (Linda) that the public won't warm to.
