British People Among World’s Ugliest [Norwegian Women Rank #1]

Ummm. Wrong.
Read the article. And ask for a headline edit:
[Norwegian Women Rank #1 AS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL]
I heard that Eskimos were the most pure race because of this.

But it would be more accurate to say, that Norwegians who think they are good-looking are more likely to be correct than Britons who think they are good-looking. Or, Britons are optimistic, while Norwegians have a more realistic attitude.

something tells me I’ll visit this thread more than once...
And the Name Is.......?

See? I’m not the only one who’s confused.
The subject is ugly people. As in the British are the most ugly people.
Then you add in parenthesis that Norwegians are #1. As in the #1 (remember the subject) of ugly peoples.
I’m no grammer police- beleive me. And English Composition is not my strong suit, but...

She may act as though she doesn’t know me, being the coy person she is.
YOU LIE!
Yes- there is room for confusion.
I don’t know if the British are the ugliest, but I do believe they have the silliest walks.
Q: What do you call a beautiful woman in London?
A: A foreigner.
