Brazil and Thailand have had Miss Transsexual pageants for a long time.

CORRECTION: “A MAN made history by becoming the first woman to own the beauty pageant”

The feminist have done this to themselves. They are the ones to blame. Now there is no such thing as “a woman”.

I wonder if Michelle De Pacina is a transgender, considering the way the article is gleefully reported. /spit

Didn’t Donald Trump used to own Miss Universe?

I smell the death of the pageant. I’m sure most of you do as well.

Is it just me, or do those children seem to look very unhappy?

The old pageant form will die...and it will be reborn as a ladyboy contest. It might be even more popular in its reborn form, but it will have a new audience.

Let’s not pretend that transgenderism in Thailand is voluntary and has anything to do with how someone is born, shall we? Thailand is where wealthy Muslims have gone for forever to rape little boys because their society is so sick that they don’t know what women look like, and “boy” equals their sense of forbidden passion.

Yeah, I haven’t watched one in years, perhaps even decades, now. Can’t remember when I actually last watched one. So, it is highly likely that it has been decades now.

I still say this transgender/transhumanism fad is nothing more than a flash in the pan. I believe this woke nonsense will give way to reality, sooner rather than later. I sure hope so at any rate.
