Only if no character-based discussion was allowed in this forum. This thread is about discussing Parvati's flirting strategy and position in the tribe.

Sucks threads like "Asian Support," "Oh My God Candice makes me sick," and "Irrational Sundra Hate" fit the club definition much better. And it's you Riliss, who post all over Spec and Spoilers about the young women as if you were posting in a hate club.

I'm not comparing Parvati to Ami, Deena, and Steph (S11). They are the only 3 females to make a go of being outfront tribal leaders who called the boots, took charge in challenges etc. If you aren't on an all-female tribe, or aren't an idolized returning player, that a hard game for a women to play. Note the fate of Jolanda, Kathy's trouble early in S4, and so on.

Parvati is more of a stealth leader who manages to pplace herself in the social centre of the tribe. (like Tina W, Jenna M, Danni, and Cirie). She's the person with allies who can decide which way the vote goes. Those pushing to boot someone aren't necessary best positioned. On Raro nobody has consistently controlled the boot, but Parvati has always been among the deciders.

ep4 Rebecca\Jenny (vs Nate\JP) - P\A\B in middle. It seems contrary to A\B's interest to boot JP, so I'm betting if Parvati wanted to keep him he'd have stayed. We know Brad voted for Jenny in ep.6, so I doubt she swayed his vote.
ep5 Nate\Brad (vs Steph) - consensus
ep6 Adam\Jenny (vs Brad\Cristina) - P\N in middle

Parvati game was to get in with Adam\Nate\Brad. JP was a rival for control of the boys, he left. No big deal what order Steph\Cristina left, since P got along with them and wasn't a target. Parvati\Adam are the only original tribemates to always vote together 3/3 times.
