Let's face it: Maxim doesn't cater to lesbians. In fact, you could say it flies in the face of all that we hold dear, especially when it declares Lindsay Lohan the hottest of them all, as it did when it published The Maxim Hot 100 List last month. So we asked you, our readers, to create your own list of hotties, and you came out in droves to nominate the women you think deserve to be on the AfterEllen.com Hot 100 List. Thousands of votes later, we have the results.

What a surprise. The list has ugly women with attitude, the entire cast of "The L Word" and Kate Winslet, who is somewhere in between. Men, never ask a lesbian to find you a date.

Did it go like this:

"Well, ok, Viki, I guess I gotta."

I have a friend that used to have sex with this girl who later became a lesbian. A while after the switchover, we were all at a party. They got to talking about sex, and he told her that she was no good at oral pleasuring. She begged to differ, and he challenged her to prove him wrong. Off they went, and he came back a while later with a smile on his face.

Eh. I think Kate is kinda cute. And Natalie is hot but way too young. But if she asked me out I wouldn't say no.
And even you, Cash, can't say Semla Hayek isn't.

But Tina Fey and Jennifer Beals? Pass.

Tina Fey is funny. Funny is always good so it gives her a pass on her slightly large ass. Jennifer Beals wasn't all that cute when she was young though I think she looks much better now.

Isn't Selma Hayek pregnant? I don't do preggers - unless I made them that way.

You might drink Thunderbird at your age too. However, as your tastes become more elegant and refined and lots of other words that make me sound superior, you will basically only want to date hot women.

Kate Beckinsale - yes.
Kate Winslet - no.

P.S. And, if you are truly discerning, hot women who can bake pies.

Cash- I would very much enjoy holding and comforting Kate Winslet, when she comes crying that you don't consider her attractive. *Breaking down in tears, her arms find comfort around my neck*
There, there, Kate. *her racking sobs and heaving chest, pressing me against the my étagere- her hot, salty wet tears running down my neck.*
*our vulnerabilities and unexpected physical responses leaves us surprised, stunned for the moment, and searching for something reciprocal in each other's eyes*
Everything is as it should be, Kate. Don't let the mean scientist make you sad.

Wait, wait, wait:

11. Eliza Dushku
Her butchy turn as a former gymnast-turned-cheerleader in Bring It On (2000) gave chain wallets a good name, but Eliza's role as Faith on Buffy the Vampire Slayer — with all of her swagger and deadly, seductive skill — firmly cemented her role as a lesbian icon.

Seriously? The infinitely cuter Alyson Hannigan who actually played a smart lesbian was beat out by the chick character who @!$%#ed any man she laid eyes on and liked to hit things? I just don't get the Eliza Dushku thing.

All things considered, I think they did a better job than Maxim. There are a few I wouldn't have put on the list (you know who they are), but overall, I think they were much better judges. My only real problem is with Angelina at number 2. I just don't get what people find so hot about her. Kate Winslet, on the other hand, her posing for that sketch in Titanic will forever be etched in my mind. :)

Hey. I can't really down lesbians for picking their list. I'm a lesbian too.

Most of that list I wouldn't kick out of bed (if they happened to venture in it), but there were a few I'd have to ask to leave. I can think of a couple there that'd I'd have to invite... like Jolie.

Shawn's joke brings to mind this joke:

A cowboy enters a town and sees a pretty lady leaving it. He hasn't seen a woman in months. He asks her to dinner.
She tells him she's a lesbian.
'What's that?" he asks.
"I like women."
"Well, hell, pardner, I like women too. Guess I'm one of them lesbians too. Let's go into town now and find us some more of them lesbians."

First of all most of you apes are judging Kate by that photo, it probably isn't the best photo of her. Second of all, most of the comments you make are classically construed criticisms based on archetypes of the 'male desiring of women'. It takes one look and you can tell whether or not you want to spend your life with them.

I love that list, its thousands of times better than Maxim.
