To the Bone...

Tellin' it like it is:

An Australian outback mayor's plea for lovelorn female "ugly ducklings" to move to a remote mining town to reverse a shortage of eligible women has won him the country's yearly award for outrageous sexism.

Mount Isa Mayor John Malony infuriated women in August with a suggestion that "with five blokes to every girl, may I suggest that beauty-disadvantaged women should proceed to Mount Isa," in northwest Queensland state.

Geez, you try to help the ugly chicks get laid, and look what happens... It just doesn't pay to be a good Samaritan anymore. But all's well that ends well; he got them back:

Malony earned his top golden Ernie award with a defense that "The protesters are blaming me for their looks."
