Thinking this is a raise or fold situation seems to be a bit of a macho thing. I assume this is in a limit game. I got ridiculed by a fairly good player for doing this in a no limit game, where I think there are perhaps more situations where it's appropriate.

I'm sure it depends on the player in the BB. Off the top of my head, if they would never fold for a raise, but would only raise with their best hands, and otherwise play very passively on the flop, there have to be some hands that would be worth seeing the flop cheap, but you wouldn't want to call a raise from this player with. A naked king, perhaps.
