The only exception might be Kate Lawler who won because people just wanted a girl to win that year and the other option was Jade. But she only became popular when she broke down and cried after losing her mates Alison and Spencer and spent 3 weeks on the poor side.

If you're headstrong and have a bit of saviness about you like Hazel last year and Ashleigh this year, you tend to gain support, but also a lot of detractors and get voted out.

As long as it is vote to evict a woman who displays strength will never win BB imo.

This. No-one wants to admit it but no-one (or not a lot of people) like/s like strong women; the attitude is that women should "know their place", whereas you can have arrogant...sorry I should've said strong men like Rex (the chef), victor, his mate jason or derek laud looking down their noses at people and generally throwing their weight around and no-one bats an eyelid.
