I'm not so sure I like beauty pageants as they focus so much on physical attributes
I agree with you! I'm not a big fan of beauty pageants. Women and girls are so much more than just a face and body
And those kid pageants!!!  They wear fake teeth, false eyelashes, hair extensions and provacative outfits.
yes, it's terrible! I can't stand when little girls are dressed  provocative
And apparently spray tanning and waxing are also common - I think that borders on child abuse.
waxing??? They wax little girls?? that's ridiculous
Exactly!  If child abuse covers physical harm and exploitation, then I think this qualifies.
It definitely does! And then these girls grow up thinking that their looks is all they got. That's so sad
We have a local one that focuses on talent and intelligence and NO SWIM SUITS!  The girls get scholarships - it's a bit better.
I agree! I thing those are good!
