I could not understand why girls are more favored to win in the Pinoy Big Brother. Are we more biased for the girls. From Nene to Keanna to Kim and now Bea, hey they are all girls. Does this mean guys have a little chance to be a Big Winner in the PBB? Or texters who are majority women also prefer women to vote for?
What do you think?

Another possibility is that Pinoys now a days are really fond of Chinese-like or Chinese-looking people.. I think the cause of this craze to the Chinese-type is that more shows shown on TV are chinese/japanese/korean films. Or maybe a big percent of the viewers of PBB are feminist.

I would say there is some truth to what you said. There seems to be a trend that we are shifting from favoring a chinese looking pinoys than what we had used to several decades ago where Pinoys prefer a spanish looking mestizas. Nowadays the chinita look is becoming a new criteria for beauty.
As for Bea and Kim and we may include our former Korean turned pinoy star krung-krung. They all have the same beauty chinitas. As an added trivia I have heard from my fellow bicolanos that even the bicol business chinese chamber did made an effort to really vote and campaign Bea during the Final round that is why she won the PBB.

Thank you rsa101 for understanding my comment about this, that I just posted a possibility not a fact.
Not all people look "only" at the personality of a person. Of course, people also look at the physical aspects of a person. It's like when you buy a product.. You look at it first before you buy diba? Kasi, looks matters. But when you experience the product, the question in your mind will be: will you go for the other or will you be loyal to it?..
Isn't it obvious that there is a large number of pinoy TV-viewers nowadays who are really fond of chinita-type people? I mean any person who looks beautifully unique is more interesting than the typical type especially if that unique person is having a very interesting life story. And why are TV channels still shows Chinese/Japanese/Korean TV shows? Because there is a big audience for it.
So it's wrong to say that there is "nothing to do" with the gender and the looks because it also matters. I'm not saying that my statement is all correct because it's not a fact, just possibilities.

it is simply because more women are viewing television than men and probably men are a little bit skeptical in showing interest by texting and losing their load he he he!!

I agree to you! I think men are wiser when it is about money and where to use it.

Don't get too much disappointed about it. It maybe a coincidence. My mother always votes for mickey and some of my girl friends wants mickey to win, so it's just a coincidence.

We are not bias with this matter. Its just happened that girls are more for the previous season as well as season 2. People votes for their favorite its really not a matter if it is a girl or boy. Depends on the voter.

I think ur right, there seems to be preference for female winners..i noticed that too last night when keanna nene and kim was on stage..i immediately went into the conclusion that bea will be the winner.
I don't know the psychology or science behind this though.
