Really? Guess someone doesn't watch syndicated TV.

Mary Ann here, but either one catches my attention.

It's been a while since I've watched Giligan's Island, so I don't know.

But Tom Bombadil was around before Gilligan's Island.

I dont mean to hijack this thread but if you guys want to play a quick game there is one starting in 15 minutes with a 20 point buy in

I'm not hijacking, I'm just giving the link to said game

Anyone picking Mary Ann clearly does not especially want to get a hummer. I figure her for a straight-up missionary style girl, whilst Ginger seems the sort willing to get freaky.

Not that a hummer is especially freaky, but to Mary Ann, it certainly would be.

"I dont mean to hijack this thread ..."

If you don't mean to... then don't do it.

What, no Mrs. Howell option? Ageist!

Why is age discrimination ageist but race discrimination is racist? Shouldn't it be raceist?

Some of us prefer boring straight-up missionary.

I also vote for Mary Ann. Ginger was a ho.

Ginger = Drama Queen
Mary Ann = Happy to please me

I'd go with Mary Ann

Ginger = full of herself

Mary Ann = down to earth

Plus don't judge a book by its cover; you never know who's really going to be freaky.

Mary Ann.

A farmer's daughter = no hummer?
Please. You could totally use your Diplomacy skills to get anything you want from her. She'd be too naive to defend herself from you verbal manipulations. Plus she was way hotter.

... and I stand on years of study of both girls as an adolecent, so I'm not just making this up ;-)

I once heard a dating expert suggest, in all seriousness, this question as a way for women to tell if their dates are secretly gay. Because a gay guy would equate Ginger's glamourousness with beauty and would fail to realize that Mary Ann was actually way hotter, because of her less flashy wardrobe.
And if the guy didn't know who you were talking about he was too young to be dating. Cause I guess you really shouldn't date unless you're over 40.
Anyway it was thoroughly ridiculous.

Sounds like the financial advisor that won't discuss his own portfolio.

Like many such shows, the characters are really rather two-dimensional (obviously) and are more like aspects of a single or maybe two people (I would argue two in this case as Mr. & Mrs. Howell usually took on the roles of villian). Anyway, I'd take Mary Ann's honesty and down to earth qualities, the prof's brains and selflessness (always working for the common good), the skippers utter loyalty (in the face of Gilligan's stupidity and mistakes), and Gilligan's well meaning nature and always assuming the best. Ginger I have no use for. Maybe she's a sort of villain too. This sort of analysis probably "proves" I'm gay to someone.

Yeah, I wouldn't worry about that theory. It's pretty stupid. I think the answer that would indicate someone was gay is if he said "Gilligan".

Skipper and Gilligan really seemed to have a sado-masochism thing going on. I wouldn't be surprised to hear of spankings and such. It's curious that Gilligan slept on top though, I suspect he really wore the pants when the hut door closed.

Ooops that'll teach me to ignore the post before mine :-)

Mary Ann's a farmer's daughter in the late 50s-early 60s. Hell, she probably thought dancing was a little too risque. A small town girl like that worried about her reputation.

As a tangent, this is why I can never understand the whole paradise equates to 72 virgins thing. Seems to me like I'd prefer not to have 72 women who have no idea what the fuck they were doing. You know every last hummer you get from them is going to be toothy to the point of bad pain. Give me 10 women who know what they want and have some clue how to get it over 72 virgins any day.

It amuses me that you specified "bad pain". As opposed to "good pain" I suppose?

Indeed. A little bit of pain during naked time is a good thing. A lot of it is something I'd rather leave to the ball gag set.

Scratching the back and biting the shoulder = Good pain.
Scratching the scrotum and biting the tool = Bad pain.

Oh Damn! MARY ANN! Young and innocent....with a devil inside!!! lol

@Bob....Holy crap! We agree! The whole "72 virgins" bullshit is a *guarantee* that I never strap a bom onto my body. it's bad enough trying to train one woman what her job is, let alone 72 clueless girls who are most likely too prudish..

How about 71 virgin's and a hollywood madam to teach them?

Everyone remember your safety word... OUCH!

The only virgins you'll find these days, and that's if you are "lucky", are nuns, so just one more reason to not want "72 virgins".

Jesus Draug, it's called a *safe* word, not a safety word. What are you, Amish?

I wouldn't know, being married since the 80s and all.

Oh please, there is a significant difference between basic research - in a reference book kind of way, not hands on experience - and adultery

Safety word is perfectly acceptable. I was going to let it go, but you got smart, strat, so here goes:

Mary Ann, for sure. She's way hotter.
