In this day and age of the liberated woman (who's been around for far longer than I've been alive), the whole institution of the beauty pageant seems pathetically archaic. Now, I'm all for archaic things, but I thought that parading around for the scrutiny of men in positions of power had lost its relevancy the same day that women realized they had more potential than just landing a rich husband to eke out the rest of her days as a homemaker.
Political Correctness is the idea that you can foster tolerance in a diverse world through the intolerance of anything that strays from a clinical standard.
