It's not like there are no fat and/or ugly males in the Government, either. :rolleyes:

As far as I know they always choose good looking women as front people,chaps are not supposed to be beautiful.
It is the nature of things!

The appearance of males do in fact get criticized . For a start I can think of: Muldoon, Lange, and the obese Maori MP (will not attempt to spell his name) . Ban-ki Moon is another odd looking person . At the moment I cannot think of a male who looks like he "sucks lemons", but there must be quite a few around! :D

Two facts remain, however:

1 . I cannot think of a male VIP with teeth as bad as Helen's, and teeth can easily be - and - are commonly fixed (unlike some other facial features) . It is not like she cannot afford to have her teeth fixed . The election posters of Helen that have her teeth (smile) Photoshopped show that she can be attractive .

2 . It is the nature of most female animals, including humans, to have beauty as a high priority . I am not saying this is good or bad, and am not wanting to get into a feminist-type discussion; it is simply a fact that is true around the world in any culture or group of people .

Now, have I opened a 'can of worms'? :banana

It was her sole redeeming feature.

Why did they get the blind institute to choose her?
