Perdón ante todo, porque no existen mujeres feas. Pero el dicho dice así, y es gracioso aunque cruel.
Buena suerte y saludos del Oso ¶:^)

he short end of the stick Idiom / Expression
the worst job, the least pay, the least attractive part

Definition / Meaning
When the managers sell half of the company\'s output on their private account, the workers get the short end of the stick.

When Jesus was born in a stable and died on the cross, he took the short end of the stick for himself.

This is an intricate picture: A stick is symmetrical and has no long or short end. The idiom signifies that equality is unrightfully abandoned. (This doesn\'t hold true for the second example where there is no equality: The highest one makes the lowest choice to give us better choices. This example is unusual anyway: Normally, nobody takes the short end of the stick for us, we usually complain about getting it.)
