Men vs Women in the quitting department

[danimalg633]

Does anyone else notice the difference in how Jeff handles male and female players who quit? It seems with the females, he feels a need to coddle them a bit, ask them if they are sure over and over and give them time to rethink quitting. What if the two quitters this season were males? I doubt Jeff would hold their hand, reassure them, and give them time to think about it...Pack your shit, throw your torch in the fire and get the hell off my island. Thats what jeff would do if the quitters were guys!!

With only one male quitter, there's not a large enough sample to draw any conclusions about gender. This time around, I think Jeff gave them "time to think about it" because they needed to fill a whole episode.
