Miss Universe Pageant Organizers File for Bankruptcy After Embracing Transgender Contestants

It turns out that viewers do not want to see men competing in a women's pageant. Who could have guessed?

According to Fox Business, the JKN Global Group filed for bankruptcy last week in Thailand.

JKN owns the Miss Universe pageant, which this year will feature two transgender contestants: "Miss" Portugal and "Miss" Netherlands.

"Miss" Spain -- the first transgender contestant in pageant history -- competed in 2018. He did not advance to the finals, however, no doubt due to transphobia.

Thankfully, a new owner means a remedy for that vile "fear" of men pretending to be women.

The JKN Global Group's CEO -- a transgender activist from Thailand who calls himself "Anne" Jakrajutatip -- purchased the Miss Universe pageant for $20 million in 2022. Now, multiple transgender contestants means multiple chances for men to parade around in women's swimwear.

Despite the bankruptcy, the 2023 pageant will go on as scheduled this Saturday in San Salvador, capital of El Salvador. In the U.S., interested viewers can tune in beginning at 8 p.m. EST on Roku and Telemundo.

If they do, they probably will see some of the world's most beautiful women saying ridiculous things and pretending that two European men can be women.

Indeed, like Cultural Revolution-era Chinese people who carried a copy of "Quotations from Chairman Mao Zedong" out of sheer terror at the prospect of getting caught without one, any pageant contestants who think men should not participate in women's events will be sure to conceal their objections and simply nod along with the rest of the mob.

Otherwise, they run the risk of experiencing what Riley Gaines and other brave women and girls have experienced.

As for the organization's financial situation, the precise reason for the bankruptcy has not been reported.

A year ago the Miss Universe Pageant made headlines after a Thai business tycoon, transgender activist and biological male named Jakapong Jakrajutatip purchased the organization for $20 million. The CEO is the biggest shareholder of JKN Global Group and was made popular after appearing on Thai versions of television shows such as Shark Tank and Project Runway.

Now known as “Anne” Jakrajutatip, the new pageant owner raised eyebrows when he declared himself the “first female owner” of Miss Universe, and gave a speech at the event about “female empowerment.” Critics noted that Jakrajutatip is actually not a woman and knows nothing of female empowerment, but in the midst of the woke movement's war on biological reality the first casualties are words and their meanings.

I dont like men pretending to be women OR women pretending to be men.

Only one of these is encouraged and embraced by gynosocieties since the 1960s however. And that is responsible for destroying the family unit as we know it.

The reality is that men pretending to be women didnt destroy our societies and is why we are in the mess we are today. Its the result of women pretending to be men and leaving their traditional roles over everything else because what they wanted to do was most important over everything else. They still wanted traditional men while rejecting anything traditional female. The result is broken families, women who aren’t marriage-able anymore that men don’t want because they want wives not competitors, and women who are more unhappy and stressed and having mental problemd now, than they ever had in prior generations of women.

A tomato can call itself a vegetable but it's still a fruit.
