Ginger or MaryAnne

[tifftg]

I was listening to Mike and Mike in the Morning on ESPN this morning and they were talking about crushes during their youth and rating who they liked more from the show Gilligan's Isle--Ginger or MaryAnne. Of course my head went to which style do I want to adopt for my femme self. I am more comfortable trying to be the girl next door rather than the long lanky sexy woman.

Which style is more you?

For you youngsters wondering what this show is it helps to be at least in your mid to late 40's, I am late 50's-that's a different story.

Oh for me most defiantly Mary Ann, loved her looks and who can forget her short shorts something I love to wear still.

[pantynhoseman]

MaryAnn all the way. Loved those shorts.

Well, Gilligan's Isle wasn't big (or even on at all..) this side of the pond until satellite opened up decades of outdated, generally poor quality, network pulp to be screened 24/7 and repeated quarterly until... well, I digress.

Ginger for me - but then I am fatally attracted to redheads and freckles and the long legs are just a bonus

I'd like to present like Ginger, but date MaryAnne.
I love the way they look in this episode.

Definitely Mary Anne I like the more average type of girl. And yes to the short shorts!

[Donna June]

I'm small and brunette so MaryAnne and she was so cute. I did like Ginger's sexiness and her gowns though.

[Krististeph]

Mrs. Howell of course, she is one sexy fox!

Just like American Pie was movie that popularized the term "MILF", Mrs Howell is the one who popularized the term "GILF". And those outfits of hers- haute couture has nothing on her. Pity though, since she never posed for a centerfold. :-(

And notice her diet on the show-- lots of salads / greens-- I guess she eats like a rabbit too!

day to day, i have to say Marry Anne all the way, but when i go out, then Ginger is my role model.

If I could combine both Ginger & Mary Anne that would be a fun wardrobe......grew up in the Midwest so farmer's daughter would be great during the day but styling at Ginger at night would boost the glam!

[StephanieDragg]

I guess my style is usually in between the two but I loved Mary Anne best!! but I love dressing up like Ginger too , lol, they brought all those outfits and heels for a three hour cruise? lol and their make up should have run out about a month into the first season let alone the razors to keep their legs so nice and smooth!

[tifftg]

Stephanie, remember suspend disbelief.

[Jorja]

defiantly MaryAnn on a normal day. Ginger when I am going out but it usually ends up as Mrs. Howell.

[Mistyjo]

For me Mary Anne with a touch of Ginger

[5150 Girl]

The recipe for me, Start with 2 1/2cups of Mary Ann, add a cup of Ginger, and a 1 1/2 cups of Mrs Howell and a tablespoon of the Professor (I have a knack for fixing things)... Mix thoroughly and bake.

[Beverley Sims]

I do like Ginger.

[BrendaJane]

For me, Team Mary Anne all the way.

[Kate Simmons]

Geez, tough one. I've done all of them, Mary Ann, Ginger, Mr. and Mrs. Howell, the Skipper, Gilligan and the Prof in imitation. That boat must have been a TARDIS to fit all the junk they used on the island though. Think they were all Time Lords.

[stephNE]

I'd like to be MaryAnne.
No wonder the ship wrecked, they obviously had too much stuff on there.
No one has mentioned it, but I guess you all realize this came up because Russell Johnson (the professor) died yesterday. Now Tina Louise (Ginger) and Dawn Wells (Maryanne) are the only ones still living.

[Jocee]

Ginger for sure...... with a bit of Mrs Howell

[tracigirl_tv]

Ginger for me....with a bit of more Ginger

[Jocelyn Quivers]

Mary Anne, if I remember from a recent wikipedia article I read, polling back in the day, the majority of GM found Marry Anne the more attractive of the 2. Something about her overall down home girl next door beauty that just really stands out.

[Kristy 56]

Ginger for me. For some reason the name does it for me. Makes me wonder now why I never chose it for myself.

[Lexi Moralas]

Mary Anne for sure

[lovetobedani]

MaryAnne for sure.
