Ok, so i'm a little pissed off right now. I just read an article about a woman who was disqualified from the miss universe canada contest because she was originally born a man. The national director of the contest said that all contestants had to be "natural born females".....ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!?!?!? WHAT KIND OF BULLSHIT IS THAT?!? I thought we were living in a world were all people were considered equal but aparrently, we're only equal if we're the right gender. Now granted this happened in Canada but still, it's kind of fucked up. Judging by some of the comments i saw, it's obvious that many people think that you should only have actual women compete in beauty contest. Well here's the deal, if she competed in both transsexual and traditional beauty pagents before an no one else had a problem with it, THEN WHAT IS THE BIG FREAKING DEAL? She got the surgery, SHE HAS A VAGINA!!! Which makes her a woman. She took hormone thereapy, SHE HAS ESTROGEN RUNNING THROUGH HER BODY!!!! Which makes her a woman. Now this may just be my opinion and that's cool, but you have to admit it is a little messed up and outdated.
So what do you think? As always your thoughts and comments are always appreciated. Until next time!
