Miss Iceland announced she is quitting the Miss Grand International beauty contest in Las Vegas after being told she has “too much fat.” Arna Ýr Jónsdóttir wrote a letter to the organization informing them of her decision after she was told to lose weight if she wanted to stand a chance to win.

The 20-year old shared the letter on Instagram. “I am a very strong woman, but sometimes my strength isn’t enough,” it read.

The fags who run these pageants want the women to look like little boys.

Only somebody who wants their girls to look like boys would say something like that.

She's nearly perfect.

she is stunning.

the pageant handlers probably did not like her real beauty because they could not make money somehow. The fashion police design for mannequins not humans.

It would be interesting to see if the personality matches the cover.

She is probably a bit too blond and beautiful for the new paradigm dictating what beauty is these days.

I would accept her and see her true inner beauty. Her fat doesn’t bother me in the least.

Oh WOW. This is one of those cool trick photos. If you stare at it for several minutes, eventually you can see the ocean right behind her.

as long as it is a genetic woman, what excuse could they really be trying to cover up?

This is one of those cases where a truly beautiful woman doesn’t conform to the body type that is currently in vogue.

Some of the contestants make the sacrifice they need to make to meet the body image of the contest. This is fine. The competition is fierce. I admire drive and dedication. But, most girls (and people) are not in such competition, at least not for long. And, besides, the image currently in vogue in beauty pageants is not the only truly beautiful image. So, regarding body type, within the range of what is healthy, it is important to be happy with who you are, work with what you have, not have to continue indefinitely with the regimen you may need when in competition, but have a healthy balance in your life.

The single biggest genetic heritage in Iceland is Irish.

The fewer Viking overlords took all their Irish servants with them when Iceland was settled.

This is ‘glory gay-ifcation’ of the beauty standard: now the judges are gay boys like Perez who want skinny boy/girls with boobs.

What was Trump thinking when he hired him?

You’re welcome. In his 40s, he was so beautiful it hurt to look at him.
