My favorite season of Survivor was the season that Parvati had her bitch brigade all the way til the end. I love all female finals. It was brilliant.

This isn't about girl power though, I love all of the outsiders, especially adam and lauren. So i;'m not going girl-power on this one. The girls havn't made any kind of girl power alliance, so i don't think it would be fair for the girls to gang up against Adam and Luke A and Scott at this point, i think the outsiders alliance has nothing to do with gender.

Deana, Caroline and Lauren are worthy girls for the final. Sara will most likely make the final too.

Yup!, a few years ago it would have been inconcievable for a girl to survive against a male (Benedict vs Lauren) and even more for 2 females to survive against 2 males... (Becky and Deana surviving)

[Sophiee]

I think so definitely. I can see the final consisting of lauren, deana and sara for sure.

I don't ever find myself caring. I think of them as only random figures.

That was a good survior, but I hated Parvatti so much.... Her phony smile drove me insane. Survivor has been ****ty recently, the last 4 seasons have been crap. I think the Russell seasons where the last good ones.

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???

Has there ever been a black person in the final?

No black females though. I dunno if that means anything.

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

No, I just know better than to cheapen the mass slaughter of so many people by equating it to someone disgreeing with you on the internet. Nazism has nothing to do with wondering if for the first time ever, women will outnumber men at the end of a reality show, any more than Nazism has to do with noticing when a school has its first transgender prom queen or a woman gets promoted to CEO of a company that has never had a female executive higher than a VP.

Perhaps you should just give us all a list of what is acceptable to discuss and what is not? So far, calling people a Nazi is ok, but acknowledging women doing something for the first time is not?

we were well off topic by the time i said yu had racist teachers, stop trying to twist the conversation back to square one, you can't go back in time dude. It might be convenient for you, but i'm not that stupid. We were not talking about women in BB when i made that comment and you know it.

If you can't keep up with the conversation then i give up, yu obviously have no intellectual integrity.

[WCR1942]

Although his/her comments are harmless, I do think LostAlex is confused. You cannot refer to minorities like race/sexuality and then lump them together with a (slight) majority like women.
I also cannot see what stereotyping has to do with this topic at all.

I'm not a dude, sorry if that inconveniences you. That doesn't change that the professors of all the universities in the world that teach Sociology are not Nazis, even if that also inconveniences you.
