list begins here.
I think this list is crap. There are no doubts that there are some really cool people on the list (no Tyler Durden), but to say that HAL 9000 was influential is a bit absurd to me. What did said computer influence anyone to do or be?
Also, the Marlboro Man is on the top of the list and farther down the list is The American Cowboy. Isn't The Marlboro Man a American Cowboy?(grammar rules fail me here).
I think I would like to compose my own list of characters most influential to me.
in no particular order..
1. Bugs Bunny
2. Tyler Durden
3. Luke Skywalker
4. Mad Max

On the other hand, they seem to think G.I. Joe is a person, which is foolish. it's a brand name, even if the original doll was called Joe. And who the hell is Mammy? I thought that was just a generic term used for older black women in the culturally-insensitive forties.

I also don't think that many men are actually attracted to stupid and pathetic girls. There is a strong desire to protect women like this though, like you would feel the need to protect a child. However, if she was stupid with big tits then of course men will be powerfully drawn to her.
