Lesbian Beauty Queen, 19, With Mexican Father and African-American Mother Competes for Miss South Carolina Crown Annalouisa Valenica has won the title in her local town of Lyman She came out in the 9th grade and has been in a relationship for 3 years South Carolina does not recognize same-sex marriage or hate-crime protections for gay people By DAILY MAIL REPORTER 11 April 2013
A teenage lesbian with a Mexican father and an African-American mother is hoping to win the Miss Carolina crown when she competes at the contest this summer.
Analouisa Valencia, 19, is hoping to rattle the pageant stereotypes by becoming the first lesbian in her conservative home state to take the crown, before heading to the national competition.
She has already scored the title in her home town of Lyman and believes it was a victory for equality. Now she wants to take the issues center stage in the state competition in July.
'I want to show the judges who I really am,' she told CNN. 'I want to show them how passionate I am about my platform, how passionate I am for being an advocate for equality.'
Valencia, who has a long-time girlfriend, came out in the ninth grade to mixed responses from her parents. 'My mom at first said, "Well, I don’t support it, but I love you so I’ll support you." She's OK with it now, but it's been a couple of years,' she told Advocate.

Just what the young woman of South Carolina need, a pervert as a role model. <\Sarcasm>
I have major #gayfatigue
She’s a very pretty girl but I bet that she is a really rotten narcissist. The majority of homosexuals are and there is nothing that can change that.
I don’t buy it any more. Too many perks, too many breaks, and too much notoriety to be gained by being gay or lesbian these days.
As my niece called them in college. “LUGs” Lesbian until graduation.
It sounds like she’s going to “fight” for sexual deviancy instead of “world peace” and “making the world a better place”.
Conservatives don’t make an issue of an individual’s sexual preference. It is always the homosexuals who throw it out there hoping for special consideration. They don’t want equality. They want to be put on a pedestal and have heterosexuals bow down and worship their “pride”. Perverse.
She is very pretty. Too bad she bats for the other team.
This is ridiculous.
I do not care what you do in the bedroom who ever you are - just shut up!
If beauty has any weight in the selection process, she doesn’t have a prayer.
Sorry, just saying...she ain’t got it.
She’s a beauty queen???!!!!
That's an excellent way of explaining all this. Thank you very much.
From the original article;
“Yet she knows she still has a long way to go: They reside in a state which bans same-sex marriage and does not give employment, housing or hate-crime protections for LGBT people.”
So no special privileges coming from this Conservative state? What a shock.
Why was my comment removed? She looks gangsterish in her photos. Very tough & in your face.
Then move somewhere that welcomes queers...may I suggest New England?
I will put a case of beer that she will be happily married in five to seven years...to a HUSBAND.
The gay community will forget about it.
There will be no debate of the gay lifestyle CHOICE.
It doesn’t fit the meme.
This is a lose-lose. If she wins, we will see nothing but stories about how backwards, racist, homophobic South Carolina just joined the 21st century. For a point of reference, see the coverage of Niki Haley’s election as governor; they all started, “in the birthplace of the confederacy . . .” If she loses, we will see nothing but stories about how we are STILL racist, homophobic yahoos.
