  6. Had a really interesting long distance phone chat with a Filipino MUA who is currently working on contract in the Phillipines. She's filling me in on how beauty pageants are a huge thing there & it's not limited to women. I didn't know that beauty pageants were so embedded into the cultural fabric in Phillipines. My friend said that Filipino pageant winners are elevated to celebrity/statehood status & filled me in on the good/bad/ugly behind the scenes stuff.

  9. Both Miss USA, Noelia Voigt, and Miss Teen USA, UmaSofia Srivastava, have relinquished their titles this week. Voigt described in a leaked letter a "toxic work environment" within the Miss USA Organization, and Srivastava said her personal values "no longer fully align with the direction of the organization.” Fans soon observed that the capital letters of the first 11 sentences in Voigt's social media post spell out "I am silenced." Vox dives into what the heck is going on, including a look at the pageant's unedifying history. What's your opinion on beauty pageants?

  10. Anyone else think #BeautyPageants are SO last century? Evidently, some contestants and winners are also thinking the same thing as both Miss America and Miss Teenage America give up titles. And as for little kid pageants, well… those are just perverse imo.

  11. I freaking hate #beautypageants. They're sexist and very toxic.

  12. @namark:

    I did not “discard” her opinion. I said I was sceptical that anyone’s subjective experience is very meaningful per se in these matters. That’s why we have peer-reviewed studies, surveys and statistics in the social sciences. If you think I “discarded” her opinion, well, you are now “discarding” mine by expressing disagreement, too.

    I did not criticised her opinion “because she’s pretty”. That is clear to anyone who read my article without prejudice. No-one is responsible for the genes they were dealt, and physique is obviously orthogonal to moral authority and to the quality of one’s reasoning.

    What I did is calling attention to the hypocrisy of denouncing that #girls are unjustly expected to be pretty while at the same time

    • basing one’s career, success and popularity as a woman on always appearing as pretty as possible everywhere (own web site, MSM, SM, LI) through clothing (or lack thereof), make-up, lighting, suggestive poses and careful post production,
    • participating in beauty contests, which as I pointed out are at the very least controversial among #feminists, and definitely an area with enormous #inequality between the sexes, where girls (and only girls) are indeed expected to be (extremely) pretty, by definition,
    • focusing her more recent work (as a coach) around #BeautyPageants, targeting women exclusively and explicitly, and glorifying that career option with her language and promotional material.
