"Miss America" Succumbs to PC Warriors ..... or something ... no longer has "skin in the game"

Any male should be able to enter regardless of how they identify. We can change the name to "Gender Neutral American".

Good idea.

To hell with that. Just pull the plug on the contest.

Or have others start a new and better contest to bury Miss America.

They might as well have.  I don't think this new version is going to get ratings.



chalk up another institution the left has destroyed or taken control of.

Wouldn't it face mass protests and pressure on sponsors to withdraw support if they allowed a swimsuit competition.

If it went bye bye, I wouldn't notice it was gone.

Same here.  pretty soon though ,they will get to something we do care about.  Although that already happened a bit with me and American football.  it looks like that one might get  taken back though.

Like Fash said, political stands have no business in an arena or stadium. They can do that on their own time.

Sure, but other sponsors would jump at the chance in the right demographics. There's more of us conservatives and libertarians than there are leftists.

Maybe, but social media is owned lock, stock and barrel by prog scum. They dictate public opinion.

Big money has big power and they force the divisive prog agenda down our throats.

COMMENTARY BY

Dennis Prager

As I have documented repeatedly, the left ruins just about everything it touches: the universities, the arts, the elementary schools and high schools, religion, sports, and ordinary, everyday interactions between human beings—especially human beings of different races.



The latest examples—in just the last few weeks—are the Boy Scouts, sculpture, and the Miss America pageant.



The left's decadeslong attempt to radically change the Boy Scouts has ended in triumph. Now that the Boy Scouts is admitting not only older girls but also younger girls—as Cub Scouts—it is dropping "Boy" from its name and becoming Scouts BSA. Thanks to the left, the Boy Scouts, one of the most socially and morally constructive organizations in America, is no longer the Boy Scouts.



The liberal Left continue to push their radical agenda against American values. The good news is there is a solution. Find out more >>



As a result of that, as a result of the decision to admit openly gay males as troop leaders (the Boy Scouts never asked potential troop leaders about their sexual orientation but did not allow openly gay troop leaders) and as a result of factors specific to the Mormon church, the largest sponsor of Boy Scout troops in America, the church has ended its 100-year relationship with the Boy Scouts.



Another victim of the left in recent weeks is the arts.



Last week, The New York Times published a serious "review" on a major new "art work" at the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. The "art work" is a set of four giant piles of sculpted excrement. As described by Times writer Nina Siegal: "I walked into the excrement."



There were four giant turds inside the 16,000 square feet of museum space. One mammoth piece of feces was reminiscent of a long, winding steel sculpture by Richard Serra. One was a brown spiral. Another resembled an enormous chocolate chip. Yet another featured intertwined layers with a gap in between that I could have crawled through ... .



The artistic left is infatuated with feces, urine, and menstrual blood. Last year, New York City's famed Guggenheim Museum featured an all-gold toilet bowl into which visitors were invited to relieve themselves. As the exhibit was titled "America," one could then literally urinate and defecate on America. Why not? The left does that to America and Western civilization every day.



The latest victim of the left is the Miss America contest. The Miss America board announced that contestants will no longer wear swimsuits or evening gowns because Miss America will no longer be about physical beauty. It will be about "the hopes and aspirations" of 52 women contestants.



My first reaction is: Why stop there? To be consistent with its new ideals, the event should no longer be televised but rather broadcast on the radio. Only then will the contestants' looks be truly irrelevant.



The left, which has brought "sex week" to almost every college campus, which has introduced coed dormitories with coed showers and bathrooms, and which has told young women that sex without any commitment should be as much fun for them as it is for men, is now the guardian of modesty at the Miss America contest.



Feminists hate the fact that "society" places greater importance on female beauty than on male beauty. They blame this on "sexism," "misogyny," and "patriarchy." But of course, it is nature that made humans this way (among peacocks, it's the other way around).



In particular, feminists hate it when women try to look sexy, especially in the eyes of men.



One of the left's favorite terms to describe the Miss America swimsuit competition (and even the evening gown competition) is "dehumanizing." In a long article on the Miss America decision, The New York Times quoted Julie Zeilinger, who founded "a feminist blog called FBomb": "in 2018 this organization has realized it's dehumanizing to compare and judge women's bodies in front of a vast, international audience."



This feminist charge is ubiquitous but never explained. Why is it dehumanizing?



One irony is feminists have argued for decades that women should be allowed to walk around topless, just as men can. Another irony is that when non-Muslims argue that Muslim women wearing a chador is dehumanizing, the left charges them with intolerance and Islamophobia. A third irony is women are as interested in seeing beautiful women in swimsuits as men are.



And what about those religious Christians and Jews who agree with the feminists and welcome the end of the swimsuit competition?



I was raised in an Orthodox Jewish home, and I recall my mother and father enjoying the Miss America pageant every year. They would discuss their favorites with each other, both of them perfectly at peace with the proceedings, as was the Christian majority.



Which raises a final irony: When America was far more conservative, far more religious, and far more concerned with daily modesty in dress, and when it insisted that male students and female students reside in separate dorms at college, it celebrated the Miss America pageant with its swimsuit competition. That was a healthier America.



Inside of a few weeks, the left has gravely damaged the Boy Scouts, probably destroyed the Miss America pageant, and pounded another nail into the coffin of art.



That's what the left does best—ruins whatever it touches. That's pretty much all it does.
