"There is a world of difference between true beauty and mere physical attractiveness."
-- Master Doh-San

Are 'beauty' pageants an anachronism?

Should they be done away with? Have they outlived whatever "usefulness" they might ever have had?

Or could we maybe make some changes?

How about these:

-- No more swimsuit competition.

-- Amend the evening gown part to stipulate that all gowns must cover the same areas as temple garments.

-- The questioning part would consist of a jar containing pre-approved questions written on slips of paper. Each contestant selects a question at random. If she doesn't like that question, she can select another, but she's stuck with that one.

-- During the question part, contestants would not be allowed to wear any make-up.

-- The chief judge would be Simon Cowell.

-- The five finalists have to meet me back in the Green Room for a NCMO session. (OK, I'm just kidding about that one.)

I like your suggestions and they make more sense than what goes on now.

I also think they should have some kind of cook-off.

Years ago they used to let the ladies draw their questions from a jar....Maybe each lady could answer the same question......

If they had a cook-off no one would win.....lol.

I could win the cook-off, but I look lousy in an evening dress.

Maybe they could have the cook off on the Mr. America competition... lol. Muscles bulging and an apron on cooking green chilies.... That would be a sight.
