5. Monica Bellucci

If you have seen this woman, then I really don’t need to explain myself. In her mid-forties, she could kick almost any ingenue’s boney little ass with the sheer force of her heavy-lidded sexuality. She could probably snap Keira Knightley in half with a glance.

4. Kristen Bell

Usually I like my women with a little more meat on them, but Bell is just so damn cute and sassy that I can make an exception. She’s a master of comic timing, a self proclaimed “nerd”, and was named one of the world’s sexiest vegetarians in 2006. Also, Veronica Mars.

3. Gillian Anderson

Any actress voted “Most Likely to Be Arrested” and “Most Bizarre Girl” in her graduating class is alright in my book. Her level of badass is compounded, however, by being the star of one of the best television shows of all time, The X-Files. That her real personality and on screen persona are obviously so different just speaks to her range and ability as an actress. Also, she’s just generally amazing looking. How could you not love this woman?

2. Eva Green

This former bond girl is shrouded in a Gallic mystery that’s made her a wildly sought after actress after only having appeared in five movies (only two of them good). Also, she knows, better than any actress today, IMHO, how to sport the red lipstick. It just so happens that People Magazine has named her the World’s Worst Dresser. Obviously, People Magazine’s level of class is not to be questioned–just look at the cover of their Best/Worst Dressed issue. Anyway, the way she dresses is one of the things I like best about her. Like Chloe Sevigny, she’s not afraid to be odd and express her oddness through fashion. I‘m all for Eva being herself, pink frilly kimono and all.

1. Rosario Dawson

She might be the perfect woman, with a killer combination of brains, bod, beauty and balls. Not only do I appreciate how perfect looking she is, more than anything she appeals to my inner geek. She’s sexy and frisky but she’s not afraid to get down and dirty in films like The Devil’s Rejects, Grindhouse and Sin City. At the same time, she can hold her own in lighter fare like Clerks II (which she was persuaded to do with the inclusion of the infamous donkey show scene).

Also, the woman has created her own comic book. How badass is that?

[Got your own lady crush you'd switch for? Let us know!]

So you go to your professor and she explains what you did wrong, where you missed the mark. And while you are frustrated, you move on because hey, it’s Thursday night and so why not get drunk now and just remember what to fix for next time?

When you finish a crossword or sudoku puzzle, you head for most important part: the answer key. Because how annoying would it be to spend two hours on a mind game and not get any sort of validation that you did it right? (A blatant waste of time, in my opinion)

And of course, when Britney Spears makes the Worst Dressed list week after week, she doesn’t have to sit and ponder as to why she’s on there. If her poor taste in fashion isn’t obvious enough (last time I checked, fedoras and printed pajama bottoms wasn’t what they meant by “mix and match”) at least there is some comedian explaining what makes her outfit so comically tragic.

In all of these cases, there is an answer to what went askew, a reasoning behind the actions.

So why is it that when you go on a date that you think went well and then hear not-a-thing… there is nothing you can do about it?

There is no written report as to where you went wrong. There is no answer key. There is no comedian making a snide comment as to how lame that joke was you made and that (you poor girl) is why he is not calling.

I am new to this dating game. In fact, I think I voiced my qualms about it a few times right here on this very site.

I don’t wear my heart on my sleeve, I’m not on a desperate quest for love, and while I may be forthcoming here, I am actually pretty shy. I’m sure I’ve had my fair share of awkward moves or sent a few (and by few I mean quite a lot) mixed signals. And I get that you’re not going to click with everyone and they aren’t always going to click with you… so why do I feel so unsettled with the lack of feedback?

It’s like when you try out for the high school musical and someone else gets cast as the lead. Although at least there, you know it’s because that other person was just better at singing “Oklahoma!” than you. (And if that’s not enough, you can always go to your music teacher at have her tell you to your face, lip-synching is more your thing)

How come in the dating world, you are forced to accept no answer as your only answer. No “hey, I had fun, but I’m just not feelin it” even, “I would have rather shove a freshly sharpened pencil in my eye than go out with you again” would be better than nothing back at all.

I’ve been on dates that have gone bad. Trust me. Dates where I didn’t expect the guy to call and dates where I prayed to every lord there is that he would never call me again. But I haven’t been on a date (until recently) where it went seemingly well both in the few weeks leading up to and during the date (minus a few mixed sigs on my part…) and then…nothing.

I can handle a bruised ego- is it wrong to want to know at what point he was thinking “check please?”

But there is nothing I can do about it. Except (not by choice) turn into “that girl”…the girl that everyone dreads of becoming (and I prided myself on never-ever being)…you know the one. She sits and tries to keep busy but can’t help staring at her email or phone and wondering what the hell went wrong.

I don’t need a report with nice cursive handwriting and a scratch and sniff sticker like my second grade teacher used to give me saying “A for effort but lets work on your penmanship!”… But some sort of feedback?

If B. Spears gets it, I think I should too.
