Not sure if “that’s huge” is a reference to the news or to the size of next year’s candidates.

Nobody will watch Miss America without the swimsuit competition, the best part. That would be like trying to sell Oreos sans the cream in the middle. Feminists and the #metoo crowd are out of control.

This is crazy....

Some designers would fight to get the chance to show case there swim wear for these events. It the older ones in the years past it was crazy all the different styles in the early 90's.

Sounds like laying the groundwork to drop the "contests must be female" requirement to be announced in 2019. A man-bulge in a swimsuit would make it a bit too real.

The swimsuit contest will be replaced by a parade of contestants wearing pajamas with their hair in curlers.

It's a sign of the times - pretty-soon we're gonna be relegated to only fucking inflatable dolls - even those advanced AI female robots are gonna be programmed with a #MeToo attitude

Sad news. It’s another reason why that pageant will fade into obscurity. Is the pageant really watchable now?

Outside of when Vanessa Williams won - it’s not been very something I care about.

Is this the pageant where Steve Harvey fucked up the winner’s announcement? If not - then it’s not been relevant in 30 years.

If a "Beauty Pageant" is no longer judging the participants on their beauty what do we call it?

A personality pageant?
Femenist propaganda?
A waste of time?

i tell her to try me and i anint no bitch.

It is currently undergoing transition.

Once the women with penises have crowded out the female contestants, we will call it a dick measuring contest.

In unrelated news, ABC will have to pay companies to run advertisements for their "Miss America 2019" pageant.

BTW, this Gretchen Carlson bitch was Bill O'Reilly's most outspoken accuser.

^^^ I agree in the sense that Miss America is too conservative, to normative.

Better to have "Stripper Of The Year", or something like that. Or best porno movie sex scene. So it is already beyond the pale from the start.

Movie about such pageants:

imdb.com

youtube.com

So really about all this kind of stuff, I've long ignored it.

Those swimsuits weren't very flattering any way and the rarely showed good ass shots. I would prefer they switch to yoga pants.

If they are going to accept any woman regardless of attractiveness, it's over.

Why do you even worry about it? Do you watch 4H Club Pig Contests?

You could be helping to organize a pole dancing amateur contest at your local strip club, and you know that would attract hookers.

Not watched Miss America or Miss Universe in over 35 years.

Lots of better stuff to do than watch television.

Maybe now they can show foreign contests in swimsuits and not bother to show the us show . Most people won't be interested in the us show without swimsuits

I was hearing the show has been struggling with ratings over the last couple of years, I'm sure they are now gonna knock it out of the park.

I'm willing to bet if they actually put them in g-strings the ratings would be way higher.

Look at it this way, they can save tons of money. As I heard on TV, just have the event on the radio. :)

Good chance it'll turn into a circle-jerk about women's rights and how awesome women are

The reason that there is a feminist conflict with Miss USA is that it is presented as being normative, rather than only for those who make the choice.

So just ignore Miss USA. And what is shown in that should not be normative. That is not how women should be judged, and their social and civil standing should not depend on such things.

Instead, look to things completely beyond the pale, like the Sunnyvale Brass Rail Banana Eating Contest.

Or like this, women choosing to do something sexual, rather than being automatically expected to measure up to a standard.

If they aren't judging by outward physical appearance are they planning to use a dildocam?

Ignore things like Miss America. Women should not be judged that way.

Instead go to things beyond the pale, where they might indeed use a dildocam.
