As a nation why do we continue to embrace such a throwback as Miss America beauty pageants? Some of us as women want to be considered intelligent, able-bodied human beings. That's why we strive to continually better ourselves and improve on the person we already are. Pageants encourage superficial beauty and youth to be the most valuable trait a woman can have.
A co-worker and I were doing cardio at the gym last night and we saw on the TV how Fox News was doing a feature on Ms. California. They showed clips of her in all her glory prancing around in a swimsuit on a stage and then wearing a tiara. It just looked absolutely ridiculous. Why do we still even HAVE beauty pageants? I remember people saying the contests were obsolete when I was a kid in the 1980's. I don't want to watch those things. They just really make me mad.
