I haven't heard too much of Charli XCX but I'm a huge Gwen fan so it's very unlikely I would ever forsake her completely for someone else. But I'll have to check out more of Charli!

Anybody else think that Charli XCX sounds so much like Gwen Stefani it's sort of disturbing? Every time that song comes on I get super excited because I think she's released another solo album and then I'm disappointed. (Although to be fair the disappointment doesn't last because "Fancy" is a jam in its own right.)

SING IT, DODAI!

I sort of hate myself for this, but I laughed.

I would actually specifically point to that show as part of the problem.

Its like a beautiful circle jerk where one hand must always rest upon the member of another male.

And I'm saying that overall, there are more "ugly" or "fat" male survivalists with public exposure than women who look the same.

Look at the physicalities of the males vs the females on these shows. How many of the men are unattractive vs. how many of the women? And the topic here IS the viability of an all-female show, so it's kind of a moot point. What smaller network could you sell this to, do you think? I am honestly asking because the ones…

I'm not trying to feed but I am trying to call attention to the fact that he should be banned based on his idiotic behavior here the past week.

It's in between. There are people who fit both categories but you have to dig around for them, and the rest can be fudged as long as somebody is hot and "sort of" fits the bill.

My point is that 1. the people from Survivor are not necessarily the best in their fields, they're just the most TV-friendly and 2. some of the women who ARE the best would be able to be showcased if only they were hotter.

No, many well-regarded women survivalists don't make it on TV because of their looks, actually.

TV in general, but specifically these types of shows.

Why haven't you been banned yet?

I'm going to assume DudeBro is just really busy making sockpuppets for himself.

Look at the makeup of the men and women on the shows. You'll see a bunch of "hot" women (very few older women) and a bunch of troll-ish looking guys mixed in with a few hot ones. The majority of the shows are both about men and for men.

Seriously. I haven't seen this kind of quick, negative response to anything posted on Jez thus far.

You're an idiot.

You can't get a show like this made for women. I know a fair amount about the industry and execs and networks do not want to put women in these roles, nor do they want to finance shows in which women are survivalists. The view is that the market they're trying to attract is men, and men would rather watch men do these…

Bahahaha. Well, carry on then. I can't argue with that logic.
