BB8 was by far the most girl-centric house imo. they occupied the house from the beginning and they ruled it til the end.

but anyway, i just think it's bad news to keep these kinds of counts. I think this is a great series so far, and i don't think it has anyhting to do with girl/boy gay/str8 or races, i think it's an amazing diverse cast this year and they are all such individuals, i think we're kind of poisoning it by trying to analyze it based on groups or stereotypes. i think it's great that it's a diverse cast, but i think they are diverse because of their personalities, not because of the actual minority status of any of them.

this is a great cast because of the personalities, not because of any obvious stereotypes imo.

Because it reflects a trend in the viewing audience. Men perform better on Big Brother than women. In 22 series, there has never been a majority of women in the finale.

Sociology bores you, you don't want know nothing about it. We get it. Considering it's brought up by the show every single time that a woman always goes first, it's a statistic of interest.

You obviously don't know anything about sociology, or you have a very racist sexist homophobic sociology teacher, because sociology has nothing to do with minority status.

Sociology is about how groups of people get along, which has nothing at all to do with their skin color, gender or sexuality, so please explain to me how sociology has anything to do with what i said??
If you've ever taken a sociology course then the first thing you'd learn is that you can't generalize about people based on their minority status.
Maybe you are taking sociology from a Nazi???

More like I've actually taken a social statistic class, devoted entirely to the study of behavior as it's categorized by either subjective or objective groups. For example, are men more likely than women to work from home. Do older people drink more or less frequently than younger people. If you think an entire branch of sociology does not exist, that's on you. I think you'll find most major universities disagree with you.

Incidentally - why do you automatically equate "female" to "minority status"?

I'm not saying that kind of study doesn't exist, i'm just shocked that yur paying to learn that crap. any behavioral study based on minority status has long been discredited by every serious educational body. If you can find any major educational institution that's wiling to say "black people behave this way, and women behave this way" i'll pay you 100 bucks, sounds like you go to a very poor school.

Right, IU, Purdue and Notre Dame are just TERRIBLE. You're the one who keeps twisting this into a "minority" thing, and I've been polite in ignoring that you've already lost this argument under Godwin's anyway. Really, a Nazi reference? Tres tacky.

Whether you like it or not, human beings come in both male and female varieties. There are physiological differences and chemical differences between those two varieties, hence issues like Klinefelters's, where a combination of 3 sex chromosomes instead of 2 leads to all kinds of hormone-related issues. The fact that people study these difference does not make them Mengele, it makes them sociologists.

yea, so tacky, referencing the most important event of the 20th century, so tacky. Anyone who actually is so brainwashed as to be convinced that it's tacky to refernce the Nazi's, well keep on being a sheep dude. You prolly learned that from the Anti-semetic far left teachers who can't win an an argument so they have to make stupid rules like "don't talk about WW2" in order to have a case.

Maybe you should think for yourself instead of letting Godwin place rules on you, ever think of that?? Last time i checked WW2 was a pretty important lesson for the world, so i think it's hilarious that you've been brainwashed into thinking that it';s wrong to talk about it.

European appeasement is making a comeback i guess.

Maybe we shouldn't talk about slavery or women's lib eigther! It would be tacky??? lol
