Wow, I have never been called a self righteous bitter and twisted post-modern feminist before, I love it!, errr yes, when they joined Ansett they were young a beautiful as well, and if TAA wanted some the opportunity was the same, and yes some did not get in, but what they had in common was that they all had the same experience when they applied....NONE.
Now I wonder if a major airline had fallen over and had around 2,500 F/A's available and were looking for a job and Ansett and TAA was recruiting, how would that have be handled at that time, so I hope you never get old as you are coming up for a rude awakening.
The difference between you Sexual Chocolate and the rejected ex AN girls is that they got to that age first, wish you luck when you get old, you'll be amazed how quickly it will happen.
