Bachelors Wanted in Brazilian Town Made Up Entirely of Women

Well hi ya! How're you faring today? Okay? Good! Fill your mug with some delicious Brazilian coffee and treat yourself to a virtual muffin or doughnut. You all know the legend of Amazon women, right? Well here's an actual Amazon town!

Noiva do Cordeiro, a picturesque Brazilian town in the hills near Belo Vale, is one of the very few all-female settlements in the world. Its 600-odd female residents are mostly between the ages of 20 and 35. They all live by a strict set of rules that allows only women to dominate society – but now they’ve extended an invitation to potential male suitors.

Of course, that doesn’t mean that the men they choose are welcome to live with them. All men – including husbands and sons above the age of 18 – are banished from Noiva do Corderio. They have to work away from home and can only visit during the weekends. Girl-power rules in this rural community, and women are in charge of every aspect of life including farming, town planning and religion.

It’s a interesting way of life, but the residents of Noiva do Cordeiro believe that it’s the best way to live. “There are lots of things that women do better than men.” said resident Rosalee Fernandes, 49. “Our town is prettier, more organized, and far more harmonious than if men were in charge.”

For any bachelor interested in applying, the first thing they need to be able to do is to say, "Uh huh...you're right...yes, I'm listening...of course dear...anything you say, honey...and, I love you in Brazilian Portuguese!"

See ya, eh!
