OK, this is probably WAY controversal.
I saw on the internet an article about a "beauty contest" being held at a nudist camp. They were judging - all females - in 4 catagories, based on age. None over age 30... Youngest group was not yet celebrating teenage, if you get my drift..
One one hand, I read that women want to stop being looked at as "sex objects," and being more accepted in society, and on another hand, I read that people who frequent nudist camps, do so "because everyone is equal."
What kind of "equal" or "acceptance" is being created when they have "beauty contests?"
I am not sure if the word "double standard" is appropriate here, but this does make me wonder....
OK, please try to control the anger. I would like to hear your calm and honest opinions.
