The hypocrisy of beauty pageants

If you can’t win, or don’t compete in, your own city’s beauty pageant, Duncanvillean Rebecca Robinson, you shouldn’t be Miss Texas, I don’t think. (A Coppell resident won this year’s Miss Duncanville qualifying pageant.)

Just saying.

Of course, this shows the materialist orientation of these pageants, with contestants shopping themselves around all over the place, their “causes” in their service-dedication speeches at said pageants aside.
