Miss America scrapping its swimsuit competition is like a beauty contest on radio.

You could put 3 guys at a table, give them pitchers of beer and lots of chips, and they’d pick a lot better looking finalist than ever were picked on those shows.
Miss America has always been someone who women would pick rather than men. Often there are Miss America contestants that have weird smiles or are classically beautiful but not in the least sexy.
Playboy understands that small women are sexy. Most of their models are quite short. Victoria secret understands that hips and a chest are important too. So their models usually have both. The female equivalent to Mr. Universe pageants understand that muscles can be sexy too.
But Miss America has been generally understood to be the women that women aspire to be. Rather than the women that men crave.

Of course this gives way to transvestites becoming contestants. Wait a year or two for that.

Kathy Morningside: Twenty-five years of bitching beauty queens, and what do I get? Fired! They steal my life, they steal my beauty pageant...
Gracie Hart: Hey, hey! It is not a beauty pageant, it is a scholarship program.
Kathy Morningside: Yeah, yeah.

The "get her a cheeseburger" crowd rejoices.
Fat chicks now have a chance. A new cooking competition or all you can eat?

Precisely. As a pubescent male in a three-channel universe you'd watch because it was just about your only opportunity to see scores of scantily clad young women. Today, not so much.

Miss America is scrapping its swimsuit competition and will no longer judge contestants based on physical appearance, the organization announced Tuesday. "We will no longer be watching your show," all heterosexual American males then announced.
To: Pollster1
After all this time I can still hear her saying that.
IIRC, she was heart-stoppingly gorgeous so finding a well to do husband to take care of her would be no problem.

Envy is the green eyed demon.
Ugly hags hate people who are actually pretty.
FemiNazis generally ARE the ugly hateful types
The truth is is the ugly had their own pageants even the leftards/libtards who forced themselves to watch would want to throw up.

They’ll be competing with Joey Chestnut at a hot dog eating contest, before walking the runway.

And they are should participation trophies so no one will feel less about themselves. Afterwards they can all participate in the NFL cheerleader’s competition and all will be accepted receiving minimum wage.
The PC Feminist crap is already revolting so I guess it is time for a revolution.

Maybe they could call it the Betty Friedan Memorial Pageant, since Betty is no longer with us to compete.

This will severly damage the pageant!

Ellen withdrew her offer in protest after they got rid of the swimsuit portion.
