    Australian plea for 'ugly' women

    Australian plea for 'ugly' women



    The mayor of a remote Australian mining town has come under fire after saying that female "ugly ducklings" might benefit from its shortage of women.

    John Molony told a newspaper last week that "with five blokes to every girl, may I suggest that beauty-disadvantaged women should proceed to Mount Isa".

    The council has since been swamped with complaints from both men and women.
    But Mr Molony has refused to apologise for the remarks, saying he was "telling it like it is" in the Queensland town.

    Located 1,829km (1,136 miles) from Brisbane, Mount Isa is home to one of the world's biggest underground mines.

    In 2006, there were just 819 women aged 20-24 living there out of a total population of 21,421, according to the most recent census.


    'Lonely women'

    In an interview with the Townsville Bulletin last week, Mr Molony proposed a novel solution to Mount Isa's shortage of eligible women.

    "Quite often you will see walking down the street a lass who is not so attractive with a wide smile on her face. Whether it is recollection of something previous or anticipation for the next evening, there is a degree of happiness," he said.

    "Some, in other places in Australia, need to proceed to Mount Isa where happiness awaits. Really, beauty is only skin deep. Isn't there a fairy tale about an ugly duckling that evolves into a beautiful swan," he added.

    A fellow councillor, Jean Ferris, said the invitation to "beauty-disadvantaged women" had caused consternation among both sexes.

    "It's an absolute disgrace," she told the Courier Mail. "It's not council's view and it's not mine. It's hard when you've got to defend something someone else has said. We're definitely appalled."

    Mr Molony has since refused to retract his marks and insisted he is "a bloke who respects women".

    "I believe we should look after women," he said. "I'm told men outnumber women here by five to one. If that's the case, then perhaps it's an opportunity for some lonely women."




    he should have asked for sheepish not ugly women

    Strange how sometimes the truth hurts.

    Yes beauty is only skin deep (and I am living walking proof of that fact) but really I would imagine there is a lot of lonely less than beautiful ladies who will sit up and take notice. Plus Townsville and Mount Isa is a beautiful part of the world.

    Better keep this article away from the Pattaya whoremongers down in walking street because if they find out that street will be clear with all the fugleys on their way to Mount Isa.

    That guy obviously makes good sense, I bet the only people really taking offense are the ugly girls already there and their hansum boyfriends, having to explain their lack of taste (or plain desperation..) but certainly the rest will profit from the influx of women... (and since everyone knows australian girls are all a bit beauty-disadvantaged it's not even discriminatory !)

    It's good to hear that at least someone, somewhere in the world is telling it like it is.
    You need honest answers to plain as day sights.
    A mate of mine from CM came from there and he said nearly exactly the same thing.

    not everyone finds suzy nemo attractive nawty.

    I spose I might weigh in on this

    I spent 5 years in the isa - where I learned my trade - if you had an attractive girlfriend/wife you were best to keep her locked up at home

    an insult between a few of us there was " you were born and bred in the isa"

    happiness is Mt isa in the rear vision mirror

    though I have worked at worse places - roxby / olympic dam - " there is no such thing as an ugly woman in roxby"

    Ballera , stage 2 - unballerable - " there is a beautiful woman behind every tree in ballera "

    Working at roxby we were doing 12 day fortnights , so every second weekend a couple of us straight after work would jump into a car and drive the 600k to Adelaide , just to get a couple of nights out where there were wimmin.

    you would listen to talkback radio with women phoning in lamenting that all the men who were not taken in Adelaide were gay , and then be thinking , these wenches if they had any nouse would get a carload and head up to roxby for the weekend and have the whole weekend paid for by their choice of man.

    the isa mayor might be a bit of a fcukstick , but he is correct with this one
    If you torture data for enough time , you can get it to say what you want.
