THE Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports (MCYS) has started an online hunt for Singapore's top 10 'beautifully imperfect' couples.
The contest, held through popular social networking sight Facebook, has attracted over 14,000 fans and more than 370 couples are vying for the honour.

The contest is part of a campaign to 'inspire singles who desire to settle down to look at their potential life partners not from the perspective of what others would see as perfect, in terms of beauty, wealth, education and family background, but from the perspective of character and personality', said MCYS's director of Communications and International Relations Richard Tan.

This comes after a 2007 study showed that many young Singaporeans put off marriage as they say they have not found their 'Mr or Miss Right'.

Mr Tan added: 'The person who is not perfect as defined by the world around us may turn out to be a perfect husband or wife...'

The ministry will unveil the 10 couples this Saturday.

Short farts and midgets are usually from families that are disfunctional .
The human flaws of such subjects is that their lineage lack noblility and code of conduct .

Which is usually is how they treat others once love wanes !

Women who choose to be ravaged by other "races" live in constant denial !
