Miss America

[yomotalking]

So for years now, the Miss America people have been playing up the "scholarship" angle of the pageant, showcasing "beautiful, idealistic" women with college degrees. But then this year, to boost ratings, the swimsuits are WAY skimpy, despite some protests from the contestants. I think this shows the nature of the contest pretty clearly - honestly, it's 82 years old I think it's time to ditch it and get real here. The finals air tomorrow, complete with the swimsuits, which the pageant people say "display physical fitness." This is a joke.

I think the Pop shows are just a waste of money.

Yomo, you are really pulling out the old ones huh? Giving us something else to talk about. Well, I like the Miss America Pagents. My cousin does the Miss New Hampshire and Miss Teen USA Pagents. She has her first two years of college paid for from doing these.

C'mon! There are plenty of guys who like to watch pageant because they admire a girl's brains........BOTH OF THEM!

The bikini is possibly the western world's highest cultural attainment.

I stopped allowing these pagents to be watched in my house......

even thou some may not have problems watching these scantily clad women walking up and down the stage, ( maybe it is cause they ahve been desensitized to the sights) they do burn their image into the back of the eyes ( brain ) and then can be recalled at a moments notice..... I choose not to allow that to become part of my life, and i do not need anymore pollution entering my body then absolutely required...

there is enough stuff that i have no control over, just like a guy this past week, at a convienence store, was standing in line, when some one called out "Hey, (persons name), look at this.... and as every one in the store turned around, he dropped open the centerfold of a smut magazine...... everyone there now has that image burned into their minds.... there was no warning, it was a deliberate act against anyone that has any morals at all..... nothing was done to this guy....

he did not care if there were children present or not.... totally barberic....

no, those images of those girls, will be in the minds of the people that have seen them.... .and then there are some that will fanticize over them....

not in my house..... not now, not ever.....

I want my wedding garments as white as snow at all times.... i do not want to be as those that are not dressed for the wedding and cast out of the house into the dark, where there will be gnashing of teeth and wailing and and and... I want to enjoy the wedding feast....

I have competed in fitness pagents and my attire was "skimpy" because it is about your physique. Now, I can't stop people from fantasizing or staring at me or any other female up there on stage but, I do hope that they are there watching because they love the sport and competition and not just there to gawk. Either way, I could care less. I know why I do it.

I thought it was an oldie prog.
