Default Less intelligent housemates.

Is it me, or does it seem that the British BB has more than it's fair share of thicko's?
I have watched all the series and whilst there are always two or three intelligent housemates in every series, the sheer ignorance of the majority of them makes me despair.
I have watched all the US and Canadian BB's and some of the Australian and Danish BB's, but it seems, either they are more choosy with their selection of housemates, or the ones that apply are better educated.
What do you think?

I don't mind a few blond moment we all have those it's just when someone is just ridiculously thick that I find it annoying. An example is when Ashleigh (bb13) didn't know where eggs came from... Like wtf.

There are plenty of celebrities that weren't afforded a decent education and others that are clearly educationally challenged. Should we discriminate those sort of people?

My opinion is that those less educated amongst us will always discriminate those they see as less educated than themselves.

Allow, support, manage, furnish, assist, supply, provide, benefit.

Many parents don't support, manage, assist or benefit their children with the right school or homework even when that child is clearly struggling.

A lot of these "thickos" were intelligent but they know that the GBP hate people that they perceive to be more intelligent than them so the contestants play thick to keep the public onside.

I mean I don't mean to sound arrogant here but it's one of the reasons why I would never do good on BB is because amongst some of the sex talk that I would do, I would also come up with ideas and guessing twists like Dan from BB14, and I would be hated and voted off purely for that reason alone.
