Exactly. He could have and hasn't chosen to.

He's pretty, but rather bland.

He'd probably have more support if he were ugly.

I'm not even gonna lie, I like him because he's good looking

He is just a nice lad...he gets talked over a lot because he doesn't shout or raise his voice...maybe because of his hearing issues.
I think he has been a charming and decent housemate and I would be happy for him to win.

I can respect your honesty.
Thank god someone who can admit to liking someone over looks.
even though feel you may tolerate his personality because of his looks.

Sio what about Jack? What if Jack acted like Cristian, rapped and dressed like him and showed less butt crack? Would you "like" him?

This is one area where I completely applaud him. When Danny told him to shut up for butting into a discussion...Cristian could have called Danny a hypocrite but he took the high road. Prudent move on his part because Danny wound up looking worse.

Yeah he'd still have support just not as much as he has. He only has mass support because of his looks really other than that he's always being really dull or behaving like a prick.

I already like Jack tbh, never understood the hate towards him

I agree that me fancying Cristian is influencing my opinion of his personality lmao but I do think he's a nice guy

This is the exact question that got me permanently banned from Digital Spy.

This unwritten "rule" seems to apply only to men. Women being good looking just gets them into even more trouble, whilst with men it's like, "oh he did that, but he's good looking so that makes up for it." I'm not sure why there is such an inequality in 2015.

But men are also hated because of their looks. Most people just assume Cristian is arrogant because of it.

I also disagree with your other points, above is the one which stood out though.
Cristian has said he is fully deaf in one ear. With respect, you've experienced half deafness in one ear, maybe having no hearing ability in one ear like Cristian makes a big difference which you wouldn't know.

Oh he is def a NICE guy.
I can never dispute that. I disliked him from start because of his blatant attempt to act like a rapper/Justin Bieber character.

It's when he strips that away and has 1 on 1 conversations forgetting the camera's that he stops posing and becomes more relatable.

It just annoys me how good looking woman always go out to jealous boos, whilst men who have exactly the same personality and are also good looking, go out to screams and thirstiness.

To me he's nothing special, he's been pretty forgettable the whole season.

That's why Sophie is my favourite winner. She really managed to turn herself around having gone into the house with a negative crowd reaction, and she is one of the very few housemates to do that.

These days, a lot of voters and viewers are stubborn, and find it difficult to change their perceptions on housemates they have already deemed as their "least favourite". They would find any reason to attack them, lurking around to try and find something that they can use against them, a la Danny's tweets and Chloe's apparent greediness of the prize fund.

If a model goes in that house now and acts like an absolute angel, they'll be hated nonetheless because that seems to be the type that people look down on the most. (that and old people)
