US Marine Tells Australian Girls To Cover Up, Offends Nation

A letter from a US Marine captain criticizing Australian women's
clothing, or lack thereof, has prompted angry rebukes from Aussie men
and women.

The trouble began when the marine, named Capt. John Campbell, went on a
night out in Darwin, Northern Territory. During this night out, he was
shocked at the skimpy clothing being worn by Australian females. Unable
to contain his outrage, he wrote a letter to the local newspaper, the
Northern Territory News.

"It's about having standards, ladies," he wrote.

"What are standards? Well, it can begin by dressing in a manner that
leaves something to the imagination, to say the least."

The letter has provoked nation-wide outrage in a country where a
comfortable climate, not to mention a laid-back attitude, permits many
to wear as little as they want.

The Northern Territory News reported that it had been flooded with
negative responses to the article. They interviewed one girl, a
19-year-old Darwin dancer named Lana Sandic, who said, 'Most Territory
girls would say 'Put it where the sun doesn't shine'."

Other responses were even less charitable:

"Another bloody American trying to educate the world," a Nightcliff
resident said. "Mate, look at your women in the US - Rosanne (Barr) to
Britney (Spears). At least we have a bar to raise."

Another reader wrote: "Leave your opinions in the USA. PS: You
didn't vote for Bush by chance?"

As the spat threatened to become an international incident, the US
consulate responded that they could not find a serving US Marine with
that name in Australia, and Northern Territory News confirmed they had
been unable to contact the Marine since the letter had been received,
thus furthering the mystery.

Keen to have the final word on the issue, however, the Northern
Territory News posted a link to an online gallery called "Beautiful
Territory" that shows off some of the more skimpy Aussie fashions. What
do you think?


Who really gives a **** about the opinions of these jerks in uniforms?

shameful.

Some of the right-wing "boys" here are made nervous by photos of
attractive women...our boy justhate, for example, goes absolutely
ripship...maybe because the girls in the photos are "of-age" and
therefore older than the skimpily dressed females he prefers.

local paper published reports of US sailors escapades with australian
hookers.
