Why was Woo called a weasel?

Answered by Frank Schwing

Woo was given the nickname “Weasel Woo” by Jefra Bland, a fellow contestant on the reality TV show Survivor. According to Jefra, Woo earned this nickname due to his behavior on the show. She described him as a little weasel, constantly running around and doing whatever Tony, another contestant, would say.

The nickname “Weasel Woo” implies that Woo was seen as sneaky, cunning, and untrustworthy. Jefra felt that Woo lacked respect from the tribe because he seemed to blindly follow Tony’s instructions and would instigate things to further Tony’s plans.

In Survivor, trust and loyalty are crucial factors in forming alliances and making strategic moves. Woo’s actions, as perceived by Jefra, suggested that he was not acting independently but rather acting as Tony’s puppet. This lack of independence and personal decision-making may have contributed to his nickname.

Additionally, the term “weasel” often carries negative connotations, implying deceitfulness and slyness. By labeling Woo as a weasel, Jefra was likely highlighting his perceived lack of honesty and integrity.

It is important to note that this is Jefra’s perspective, and different contestants may have had different opinions of Woo. However, Jefra’s comments shed light on why she and potentially others saw him as a weasel.
