Do You Feel Unattractive? Australia Appears to Need You!

If you think that you’ll never attract a man because you’re the real life version of Ugly Betty, or are the proud owner of an anti-Barbie figure, then perhaps a trip to Oz could be in your future.  According to a insensitive and degrading statement (to male and females alike) made by Mount Isa Mayor, John Molony, the women in the town are outnumbered 5 to 1 and so “beauty disadvantaged women should proceed to Mount Isa”.

In a day when size 4 is considered plus sized, and tinsel town beauty comes too regularly via a cosmetic surgeon and dental veneers, real women may well be very tempted to take up Mayor Molony’s challenge, but what will they find there?  Well Mount Isa is located in Queensland – about  1136 miles from Brisbane.  It’s a mining town.  There’s a lot of lonely guys.  I’m guessing there’s no beauty parlor or Rodeo Drive wannabe, but if you’re looking for something different than eharmony.com to bring your romantic dreams to fruition then this could be worth checking out.  Don’t worry, not all the council members have the same idea of women as the Mayor does, another council member Jean Ferris said that Molony’s statement is “an absolute disgrace”.   I couldn’t agree more!

    As the local women said, “The odds are good … but the goods are odd.”
