Don't forget a bunch of guys pretending to be women tried to start a women's alliance.

Also this game was awesome, thank you for modding Reck and Drench, I had a lot of fun

Don't worry, usually when guys try to play tropes of women it backfires horribly.

Like Wiggles in Botb who was trying to play a "ditzy girl" and wound up on a tribe of 4 actual women who immediately voted him off.

I don't think it's really been an issue. But it is kinda insulting and that round of Botb encapsulated why.

Also people should know better by now than to base any relationship off percieved gender because people are so often wrong.

The women's alliance in this game was obviously a jokey thing though.

Non-anons are a different story as Matty well knows! <3

Could we not continue spelling it womyn since that's very clearly mockery of the intent of that spelling?

I don't think it's quiet a fair characterization to say they were dumped

because

they were big. They were dumped because of what they were doing. Barbara was big all game. Like really. It was only once she was playing the granites so hard that things started to go sour for her. Even then it was much more that Cruz saw the betrayal coming and that's why she was taken out.

Like despite Rand's claim he was a target when he was paired to Barbara they totally weren't. If people were getting targeted for being big, that pair should have been in huge trouble because the granites didn't care about him except for only the fact he was a granite and Barbara should have made them a huge target right? When in reality her being in the pair took them totattly off the table as a realistic vote.
