Dude, Shane. These are my opinions, I made that clear, or tried to. You can't tell me how I felt about Kim if you felt she was the same as one of the guys. Sure, the rankings are definitely one sided, but they aren't usually. I just did not click with any of the guys, except maybe Jonas. The difference with the ax and the chickens is the order of events. I'm not so gender blind that I wouldn't have put blame on the girls if they took it first. The issue about the ax was not that it was against the game rules, but a moral issue. If I were in the same situation, I would not have taken the ax. Heck, I probably would have given it back to them if someone on my team took it, even if it killed my chances in the game. Stealing is stealing. In my eyes, they should have made a deal to make up for it. If you think that their trying to take fire from the guys was stealing, for example, (though I didn't notice your saying that) the difference is fire is sharable without either losing it. You need fire to survive, not a chicken. The guys, admittedly, did that when they reasoned that they don't need a chicken to survive, but you do need fire, which they tried to withhold from the women using the competition as an excuse to do so, never mind humanity.

And where you say the frat boy alliance is smart, and alliance are smart, but shutting yourselves out of the group dynamic by forming a clique isn't. You still need to be amiable to ones not in the alliance to not make it so entirely obvious. That deals with the social side of things, obviously.

But anyway, these are my observations and opinions. I'm sorry they got you so heated up. That wasn't my intent. I just like the girls better. Also, I do try to keep in mind that editing is part of storytelling with Survivor. Events can be molded to make a better story of it. I'm not really judging anyone, just doing the rankings for fun.

Also, I didn't notice anyone listening to Jeff (accidentally typed Chris, again XD) by crossing their arms. Maybe it was an oversight on my part. I know he explained it before the challenge, but they were observing each other, and must have forgot, or omitted his instructions. My point was that after they landed he would remind them. Not before they were preparing to jump.
