Of course they want a well-rounded woman as their winner.

That’s why they had a swimsuit competition.

especially since the people who watch at home want a well-rounded, relatable human being as their winner

Well, that's one vote.

I guess we will find out what the other millions of votes look like (oops, is that sexist? ;-) ).

It’s about whether or not you fit a certain, antiquated ideal of the “perfect woman.”


Pssst. It’s not antiquated.

I was never a fan of the pageant and saw it as “soft porn” for all intents and purposes, so I get her complaint. Still, it’s a bit like saying she’s glad the strip club she used to work in won’t have strippers any more.

Of course, it also means it will go out of business.

***WARNING***

NBC = Nothing But Counterfeit; Nothing But Crap

Please, more Leftist bull sh#t.

Don’t believe these Lying Leftist Media outlets that proved themselves during the 2016 campaign to be operatives of the DNC and intentional liars. They are presumed to be lying and we should presume what they publish is a lie. The presumption can only be rebutted with the outlet providing clear and convincing evidence they are not lying.

If this story is true and has some redeeming value, at least get the story from a reasonably reliable source, not from a known Lying Leftist operative posing as a “news” organization. You’ve done the Patriotic Right a service. Much better than the mindless repetition of lying sources and their lying headlines.

If we’re told a lie, don’t repeat it. Neutralize the lie by speaking the truth. Lies aren’t defeated by repeating the lie. Lies are defeated by repeating the truth. We should have our eyes on the prize - in this case, politically, what it takes to recover our Free Constitutional Republic. That should be what we major on and focus on.

Antiquated? I think not. Like the Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart said in 1964 about pornography, I may not be able to define the perfect woman, but I know it when I see it.

Only a matter of time until there is a 200 lb. transgender crowned Miss America. Maybe they will change the name to “It America”.

...correct. Sex sells dumbass. People will not watch a bunch of fat lesbos with hairy arm pits no matter how much “inner beauty” they have.

Pageants should state what the alleged attributes of contestants are and how those alleged attributes are objectively measred to determine winners.

No one is forcing these zipperheads to do anything. As far as I know, being in a pageant is voluntary.

They should hold the contest on radio.

Oh bullsh*t!! It’s all about t & a. Men like looking at attractive, skimpily clad women... it’s NORMAL!!

The pageant idiots will lose a huge part of their audience and that means less revenue for the networks carrying it and for the pageant itself.

My late wife used to love watching them. It does seem they were prettier back in the 60s.

I can remember watching several state’s representative and thinking, “there were girls in my high school prettier than her”.

Imagine that, a women’s beauty pageant that judges a woman’s body. How cruel can you get!

I don't know what talent or positive personality trait this demonstrates, but it would look better in a bikini.

Free beer and a wet t-shirt contest would be a good replacement!

Sorry but political correctness manages to violate Darwinian law as well as divine law. An appreciation for an attractive woman is hard wired into the brain of men. “Beauty contests” were at their core an acknowledgement and manifestation of that biological reality. When such events have devolved into politically correct public interviews of essentially unattractive women, few will care or watch.
