I was thinking today about last nights eviction... Lara could have probably stayed in if she was a bit more strategic.
By spruiking about how GREAT you are & how much of a POWERFUL women you are would only fuel fear in some HM's, thinking, she could possibly beat them because she is so physical for her age and head strong. If she had have toned that down a lot and come across as not so cocky or strong she probably would have evaded a few votes.
The other thing that got her votes was her being overly bossy & mother hen, telling the HM's to clean up, make their bed etc.. She lost a few votes with this weak social trait...
Lulu was destined for eviction because of her flip flopping without aligning herself to some alliance - she was always going to be the big target to vote out, & as such it was Lara's game to lose - and she did...
You can stand high on your perch and preach what a great game you played and how you were true to yourself, stood up for your values blah, blah, blah, and all that shit... But at the end of the day - no one will remember you unless you win... Lara won't be referred to in the future as 'That stoic patriarchal women for stood for everything good' ... she'll just be forgotten...
So you might as well play smart, be strategic and when you're being given the $250K cheque at the end - then regurgitate all your value nonsense
