It might be because I spend too much time in the realm of fiction (reading novels, watching movies, obsessing over tv), but I’ve been known to spend more than my fair share of time considering the pros and cons of men that don’t actually exist. The good. The bad. What they do right. What they do wrong. Why I can’t actually meet the men that Carrie Bradshaw dated.  And that’s probably partly because it’s easier to figure out the reasoning behind fictional characters than it is to figure out the reasoning of actual men. But that’s another story, for another day.

The point is that I know my fiction. I know my movies. And I know the men in those movies. And that’s why I feel perfectly justified in my list of the top ten most eligible movie men out there…

10. Richie Rich. Granted he’s a little young (Or at least he was back in the day when this film first came out.) but what he lacks in age he makes up for in cash. I mean the boy has a McDonalds in his mansion. If that doesn’t get you on this list, nothing will.

09. Harry Potter. He’s the savior of the wizarding world. Enough said.

08. Zack Mayo.  Of An Officer and a Gentleman. The one with Richard Gere. If you don’t know what I’m talking about go rent this movie right now…But back to the point. He may not be the richest or most prestigious guy on the list, but you’ve got to love a man in uniform, right? Right.

Let’s talk about credit card debt.

Spotted: Posh Spice on Gossip Girl!

This must be the son of Superman.

So, if you haven’t already heard, the new cover girl of Playboy magazine is…wait for it….Marge Simpson. Not the first person we think of when considering sexy women. But I suppose those long legs, that voluminous hair and those big alluring eyes could do the trick.

This got us thinking: if men can ogle cartoon women then we sure as hell can drool over some hunky cartoon men. And there are plenty to choose from.

Be careful though, at the end of the day they are fantasy, and they may have our actual prospects looking a little less then desirable. But hey, a girl can dream, right? Read More »

[It's pretty obvious that the average CollegeCandy reader has some very strong opinions. Opinions that she likes to share with everyone on the site.  We love a strong woman, so we thought we'd give her a real forum to discuss her thoughts, feelings, and perspectives. Every Friday I'll be featuring a hot topic (like the romper!) and leaving it up to you, the readers, to duke it out. So, read it and get your debate on in the comments section below!]

We all grew up wanting to be supergirls – maybe not with all of the superpowers – but to be strong, smart, independent chicks who could handle themselves and still wear rockin’ heels. But the world of the superhero has always been a boys club (Wonder Woman famously started out as the Justice League’s secretary). Next week one of the most famous comics in history will have a female hero for the first time; and not just your run-of-the-mill, butt-kicking woman; but a hot, rich, Jewish, lesbian, butt-kicking woman.

But is this kind of character a blow for women’s rights, or are comics really just holding back the female image?

One of the concerns over women in comics has always been that they are hyper-sexualized, which some say gives many of the people (especially men) who read them, the wrong idea about women’s bodies and their functions in the world. And it’s definitely true that the world of superheros seems to be populated by a race of  supermodels with Barbie-doll proportions and a propensity for leather. Catwoman is practically the poster girl for fetish garb, and even the great Wonder Woman can’t get rid of the freaking bustier (no matter how hard her writers try)! I mean, have you ever seen Powergirl? Apparently her “powers” are housed in her cleavage. Read More »
