I still can’t believe this is really real.
https://therightnews.substack.com/p/obese-man-wins-miss-greater-derryI first saw it at the Bee. No satire there at all.
https://babylonbee.com/news/patriarchy-wins-beauty-pageantYou all know I support TRUE transgenders. If this guy is true I have no problem with his existing or transitioning. I have a huge problem with him receiving an award he does not deserve. A beauty pageant is for beauty, and “beauty” is an objective standard.
You can protest all you want. It is an OBJECTIVE STANDARD. This is beyond dispute, and has been demonstrated by scientific studies. Beauty is a mathematical symmetry in your facial structure as well as other objectively measurable features and this applies across races and cultures. It also involves youth and physical fitness. Yes there are those with fat fetishes, or Daddy fetishes - that’s not “beauty” as universally defined.
“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” Nice words but not literally true.
“Beauty is what you are on the inside.” You might be beautiful on the inside but this doesn’t mean you’re objectively beautiful on the outside.
Beauty is important. Beauty is the number one feature in females that males seek for sex. For women seeking men, it’s number two (ability to provide resources is number one). Beauty has evolved to draw the sexes together for reproduction. It is the prime directive of every human’s biological programming. Find something beautiful to fuck. It’s what we all want. We all seek beauty, if not to mate with, then to at least look at, because doing so elevates feel good chemicals in our brains.
Wokeness shames that! But it’s nature, from millions of years of evolution. Our physical beauty is mostly genetic. We cannot control our inherited bone structure, though we can enhance ourselves with makeup, stay in physical shape, even surgical modifications. But beauty pageants began as a way to celebrate natural female beauty- the number one sought after quality in females by males. It celebrates the core dynamics of the propagation of our species.
I understand that accomplishments, talent, etc., are part of the beauty pageant but the standard remains that it’s about beauty. It’s not fair that most of it is what you were born with that you didn’t earn. But that was never the point. Nature isn’t fair.
First, feminism criticized it for “objectifying” women. Of course it objectifies women. Men are visual. They are turned on by outward appearances. That doesn’t mean they don’t care about what’s on the inside and it doesn’t mean that’s the only reason they mate and marry, but it’s the first thing that draws them. Can they love an ugly woman? Of course. There really is beauty on the inside. But that’s not what these pageants are supposed to celebrate.
Now, the feminists don’t need to worry about men objectifying women. They’re doing it themselves, shoving aside all the female contestants as if they were objects. And upholding an extremely ugly man to ostensibly represent the pinnacle of female beauty. The most bizarre the-emperor-has-no-clothes moment I’ve ever seen in my life.
Were he a trans who had actually achieved extreme female beauty aligned with universally accepted standards I would be okay with him winning, if he truly were the most objectively beautiful, but that person is the very opposite of outward physical female beauty. Obese, masculine, lacking facial structure. This was a participation trophy, and he was used as a vehicle for woke virtue signaling, as well as a big “fuck you” to male appreciation of female beauty.
