It's demeaning because the only attribute they bring to those contests is how they look. It makes them no more valuable than an object. The talents parts of the show are there to simply mask the obvious, and even then are usually an embarrassment like with the Miss South Carolina.

Hi there, how is Robot Hell going?

To answer your question I would agree that they are being judged like a meat, juicy or dry. Although elements such as intelligence, wit and academic strength is tested in some of these comps, the ultimate winner is looks and good looks at that.

However, these days with Mr Universe and Mr Hong Kong etc etc, I think its not as demeaning anymore. People enjoy a beautiful body so now its more entertainment than actually focusing on a woman - its focusing on beauty and perfection of both genders

splendor opposition are demeaning. questions are already given to the applicants so they might have greater effective answer. if not given properly the A&Q area may well be a fiasco. this occurs a year in the past while my chum joined a splendor opposition. she's exceedingly and brainy yet she lacks the peak. she became chosen to be interior the magic 5. for the period of the Q&A component, she replied the question fluently and actual, whilst the different stammered and the worst their solutions are some distance fetch. besides she didnt win any award, the winner is definitely this very eye-catching woman, suited face and suited physique yet no brains, she cant even differentiate he from she. while she talks she makes use of he/his while describing a woman, which makes confusing if that guy or woman she's speaking approximately has a unisex call. for the period of the competition while it became her turn to respond to the question, the team grew to grow to be wild and booing. yet besides she did win and the team get wilder and protested with reference to the competition. and from now on in our little city splendor opposition is greater person-friendly as "splendor AND BRAINLESS opposition"

Funny how many feminists demand legalized abortions, claiming that a woman should be able to "choose" what to do with "her own body."

Then the same feminists typically oppose beauty pageants, even though the women in the pageants freely and voluntarily "choose" to use "their own bodies" for the pageant.

Seems very contradictory to me......

I don't care for beauty pageants but if the women want to participate in them, then it's their own choice. As long as they are adults and not little children being pushed into them by their parents, then I have no problem with their participating.

Why do feminist-controlled people insist on judging the value of beauty contests, but at no time judge the value of NFL football?

You have stumbled on the biggest conspiracy ever. Women are being held against their will by agencies like the CIA FBI and made to go in pageants for the entertainment of society.

I think they are, since they barely acknowledge any quality a woman has other than her beauty. But if a certain woman wants to participate in one, it's none of my business.

I do find it a bit demeaning, but it's their choice I suppose

They're scholarship pageants.

And, no, they're not demeaning. Nobody is forcing these young women to do this. They're covered, they're modest, and they're treated with respect. How is that demeaning?
