Here are the sexy photos that have caused a world of controversy for the Miss Universe pageant.
The beauty contest has been rapped for having its contestants strip down -- with some even doffing their bikini tops -- for a series of racy photos that feature them wearing little more than decorative body paint.

"The contestants who compete at Miss Universe are diverse, as they represent more than 82 countries around the globe. Many of their cultures embrace nudity," said a pageant representative.

Many of their cultures embrace child prostitution, selling children into labor or prostitution, FGM, beheading, stoning, terror, kim chi, torture, polygamy, kim chi, and many other affronts to modern society and its respect for feminist rights.

The "beauty" part of these contests has been completely lost. Someone can have a beautiful personality, a beautiful outlook on life, a beautiful intellect. Nothing wrong with having a beautiful body either, but then you take that and exploit it and it loses all sense of modesty, humility, morality. God says our bodies are to be his temples, and that we should respect them. This is not respect, it defies respect. It turns beauty into sex, lust, exploitation, for personal gain. I'd rather see contestants judged on their character, not how much of their body they can reveal.
I'm no prude. If Miss Universe is going to keep going this way I'm not watching at all.
BTW what about the islamic entrants?
Oh the pics aren't bad...SI has been worse. It's just the direction the pageant is going that bothers me.

Haven’t seen a young woman with natural beauty (the kind that softly glows from her face) win any of these contests in years.
I’m not sure what to say other than I like tits......
I thought Kim Chi was the hottest one.
So you don’t like kim chi?
We have rules for a reason.
Miss Slut contest!!
You can buy magazines and DVD’s of under-15’s like that in Japanese shops.
It's probably because they subconsciously remind me of male convicts and gang bangers.
Ya like kim chi do ya?
Yes ... but have you seen her sister Kaa Gogi? She's a real dog!
One thing I have found "interesting" - and I have no idea why - are those delicate "ankle bracelets" or chain thingies.
Poet's shirts as well, but of course generally not in public. Just my wife and me.
Is my celtic heritage showing, LOL?

You’re right. Kim chi is the worst!
I don’t like Kim Chi either. He runs North Korea like a prison. He’s crazy.

Maybe that's because "young women with natural beauty (the kind that softly glows from their face)" are getting rarer and rarer at all.
I don’t find many of the Miss USA contestants attractive anymore. Maybe I just like a “normal” looking girl. Trashy women don’t get more beautiful to me just because they put on a nice gown and a 5 gallon bucket of concealer and other assorted types of makeup.

Some of these "cultures" are anything but!
