Beauty pageants are so fucking cringe and should be deleted in their entirety.
Yeah, they are cringe, but these are adults, not children. It’s the same as a bodybuilder competition, as far as I’m concerned. Not for me, but as long as people aren’t getting hurt, it’s just entertainment. Just keep the kids out of it.
I speak for society as a whole. People enjoy dog fights and other unethical and toxic entertainment yet that’s not an excuse to allow it. We’re better off without it objectively speaking.
Both promote suffering for entertainment. In both cases that means both contestants and societal impact.
In dog fights, dogs get killed and people seeing them normalized get desensitized towards animal cruelty.
In pageants, models are incentivized to starve themselves and to subject themselves to cosmetic surgery, and people seeing that normalized feel like they need to do the same because of body image issues.
How? I genuinely believe there’s no real value in shallow events like this. I’m from Thailand and their kinda big deal here but nothing positive ever came from one other than some memes. Fortunately pageants are in extreme decline and they’ll be gone without any particular effort from us.
The only way these things can stay relevant. Beauty pageants are so fucking cringe and should be deleted in their entirety.

Don’t yuck someone else’s yum.
So? Some yums deserved to be yucked. It’s nasty and outdated and toxic - we don’t want it.
Fuck the abusive mysgonstic comments. You’re absolutely correct.

I think the comparison is pretty spot on.
This is the first I’ve heard of the cosmetic surgery! I’m surprised they don’t treat that like steroids in major sporting competitions.

tbh I’m more afraid of people who speak the truth on behalf of ‘us’
Sorry for being a part of my community and society I guess?
