Betty. Gwen. Mary Ann. Lana. Bailey. Cei-U! I summon my fantasy little black book! I agree with all of those...except that I don't know who Bailey is.

The '70s equivalent of "Ginger or Mary Ann?" ws "Jennifer or Bailey?."referrig to the characters played by Loni Anderson and Jan Smithers on the classic sitcom WKRP in Cincinnati. I preferred shy, bespectacled Baily over voluptuous blonde bombshell Jennifer, as did most of the guys I knew.
Cei-U! I summon the real Dynamic Duo!

What really surprised me on the WKRP revival was that I wound up liking Nancy Braithwaite (Marla Rubinoff) even more than I had Bailey Quarters. She was nuts, but in a really fun way.

The thing about Jennifer was that she was actually very intelligent and clever as well, so for me it was no contest in her favor.

I sometimes wonder if I'd like Loni Anderson a lot more than Jennifer Elizabeth Marlowe? Jennifer was off-putting by intention. She mostly dated older, often wealthy men, and between seasons 4 & 5 married a rich guy who died on their wedding night (if I recall rightly). Not too long after, she married an actual PRINCE of Monaco, and put down a political coup by his brother OVER THE PHONE. What a woman! Although for most of seasons 2-3, Bailey had a thing for and was involved with Johnny, there was ONE brief scene in a season 1 episode where it was clear she found Andy attractive. This was not followed up on... UNTIL one brief scene in a very late-4th season episode, where for the first time, Andy said something that made it clear HE found her attractive, too. Neither managed a return appearance in the revival (maybe they would have if it had continued longer), but my theory is that whatever circumstances made Andy leave WKRP, he probably took Bailey WITH him.

Oh, I should have known that! Yeah, I prefer Bailey too.

I just thought of it, but Zoey Deschanel (Jessie from 'New Girl) actually looks like like Bailey, and plays a vey similar character

Well since someone already said Reggie, I'd settle for Kevin Keller. The man-Betty to Reggie's man-Veronica.

Myself, I always thought Harry Osborn & Gwen Stacy were made for each other. (Before editorial interference reared its ugly head.)
