But Definitely Not a Finish
They took away
the swimsuit competition
in a beauty pageant,
and guess who’s
complaining
It’s a way to admire
a well built body, they say,
unaware that the way most
beauty pageant women
get their well built body
is through some combination
of surgery, starvation,
bingeing and purging,
excessive exercise.
Despite opinions to the contrary,
most women don’t come standard
with the Perfect Body
According to Societal Expectations.
How will we really know they’re
worthy of the Miss America title?
Well, maybe we judge her on her mind,
rather than her body.
That’s a start.
