I thought liberals were FOR a woman's right to choose what she does with her body.

If a woman WANTS to enter a beauty pageant, that is HER choice.

They are easily confused.
I'm not confused. Liberals, just like Conservatives, are all individuals. Some might not care and some do care.

Apparently, that woman on the show cared. Do I care that she cares? No, I do not care that she cares. She, too, is allowed to care or not care.

Do you care that she cares? I'm guessing that you really don't care, right?

IOW, silly thread! (in my opinion, of course)

Agreed. Most non-celebrity Democrat women either aren't very attractive or look like men. The tranny dems are often more attractive Dem "women" than the biological ones

Same here.

Suppose they gave one of these contests and nobody attended?

I guess that's what happened with the male beauty contests, because there aren't any.

Actually there are. We certainly have male models, bodybuilding and more attractive males put on tv/movies. Isn't anything based on looks a beauty pageant in a way?

So why the dislike of beauty pageants? It seems hypocritical considering looks matter in many other ways that people are ok with.

Much easier to ignore them now that there is the internet and lots of Victoria's Secret commercials.

Back in the day, it wasn't as easy to grab mental images when regrouting the shower.

I'm female and straight so I don't look at women that way.

The coastal liberal elite which now rules the Democratic Party no longer participates in them the way they did in the mid 20th century. Now they're looked upon as something for "plebs" by the elitists.

They should have male pageants for the female viewing pleasure. And then theh can have females tell the male contestants to lose weight. See how the men of America like being called fat.



Are you telling me that women never judge or comment on men's looks?

Ha ha ha. I don't know what world you live in
