Little boys and plastic toys ...

No matter how much man evolves one thing remains constant: his love for the big-breasted blonde plastic Barbie doll!

Pamela Anderson has been named "TV's Sexiest Woman Ever" according to a list compiled by Internet service provider AOL.

While it's hard to disagree with one AOL writer who said: "A complete knock-out blonde who wears a bathing suit and bounces around as she saves lives - Pamela Anderson took bodacious to a new level" it seems wrong on principle to crown someone so obviously 'improved' as the sexiest ever.

No man alive would vote a toy car as the best ever so why accept any less from your woman?

Don't get me wrong, I get the attraction: huge... curves, pouting lips and big blonde hair. Guaranteed to set a man's pulse racing but you can get the exact same thing from Farrah Fawcett, with the only notable difference being that she looks like it's all real (oh, and she never looked trashy with it) - which makes it even sadder that she came in second!

What kind of message is it sending to young girls growing up these days when their fathers and brothers have set the bar for the sexiest TV woman ever as being plastic with painted-on barely-there clothes? When you look at women like Ali Larter (placed 43rd), Jennifer Aniston (22nd), the two Jessicas (Alba 17th and Biel 26th) - all stunning blondes (ish) with natural looking curves to die for, why would someone as obviously fake and cheap looking as Pamela Anderson win out over all?

Do men value themselves so low that they could never aspire to a real woman or is it just that a real woman might have a real brain which could be a real stumbling block when it comes to accepting advances from an all too real male chauvinist pig?
