An obese woman has won Miss Alabama, with the organizers of the contest insisting that the intention of the beauty pageant was to “foster a positive self-image.”
Yes, really.
After Sara Milliken learned that she had won the competition and would go on to represent her state at the national level, she hit back at critics who questioned her weight.
“Even something that you type over a screen can have a lasting impression on people,” she told WKRG.
According to a report by the news network, “The purpose of the national American Miss program is to grow confidence and foster a positive self-image.”
This despite the fact that the level of obesity displayed by Milliken is linked with all manner of horrible diseases like diabetes, heart disease, strokes, and certain cancers.
Respondents weren’t very impressed with the result.
“Dang I didn’t realize this was a cattle auction,” wrote one.
“This 500 pound woman is supposed to be a role model to kids,” added another.
The woman who won Miss Alabama is the size of a Buick.
Some expressed gratitude for the fact that at least Milliken is a biological female, unlike the winner of Miss Maryland USA, who is a man.
Maryland has to roll out a man so what does that say about women in MD?Alabama has the 2nd highest rate of obesity in the nation at 40.4% of the population so it appears she is a pretty good example.
See the five states with the highest adult obesity rates.
- West Virginia (40.7%)
- Alabama (40.4%)
- Kentucky (40.3%)
- Oklahoma (39.6%)
- Mississippi (39.2%)
Look at it like men competing in women's sports.It is probably time for beauty pageants to go away honestly... I mean it IS a pretty misogynistic thing.
Having said that - the winner was supposed to be the best example of all the women.
A morbidly obese woman is not exactly that.
You don't understand beauty.It is probably time for beauty pageants to go away honestly... I mean it IS a pretty misogynistic thing.

Kind of just shows the ridiculousness of beauty pageants in general.Maryland has to roll out a man so what does that say about women in MD?
And she was I believe a previous 2 time loser.Kind of just shows the ridiculousness of beauty pageants in general.
I will give the Alabama lady some credit though.
Took a lot of courage to compete in something like that knowing the reaction it would create from some.
As I said on the other thread already started on this topic, beauty pageant's are so 20th century.Well, OK I guess.
And the Maryland winner was a man?
Okie Dokie.
Times a be a changing.

Because Alabama's gone woke!Why is there a thread about this pageant?
They are child abuse. They should be ended and parents should be arrested...
The whole concept is abuse. Beauty pageant? A contest to see who is more beautiful? How bloody stupid is that? And how bloody Republican. Republicans elected a male beauty pageant winner governor of California.They are child abuse. They should be ended and parents should be arrested...
Says someone hiding behind an avatar.^^^^^ Projection maximus ^^^^^^
Agreed'''The whole concept is abuse. Beauty pageant? A contest to see who is more beautiful? How bloody stupid is that?
No idea what a beauty pageant has to do with Politics these days, but you seem to dislike Republicans.And how bloody Republican. Republicans elected a male beauty pageant winner governor of California.
Republicans just surrender their judgement to their fascination with celebrity. I'm a little surprised Kim Kardashian hasn't been nominated yet
