      Learning to walk in heels is a steep curve. And painful. But women are expected to know how to wear them. It’s hard to go to dressy events and wear something that’s not heels and still look mature

    • @zvzoomin807
      @zvzoomin807 3 роки тому +55

      I believe you can wear anything you want, men can wear pink, crossdress, women can wear whatever they want, heck I can't last in heels for one minute. It's 2020, we all need to wake up, LGBTQ, Straights, People of color, white people, disabled people, abused people, anyone should be treated the same, and instead of sending death threaths we can try to educate those who don't agree. We are all powerful, and we shall all take pride and stand, not just as people, but as a community. We. Are. The. People. Of. Earth. :D

    • @trekadouble757

      Considering how many different types of heels exist, I personnally think that every woman who has normally shaped heels can find a shape that she likes. Not being able to walk in really high heels is no problem when you realise that there are also kitten heels and intermediate heels.

    As a little girl (12) who has done numerous pageants since i was 6, I do think pageants need to be more positive with body positivity and need to ask better questions instead of “what’s some Insecurities you have” they should ask “what defines beauty for you?” Just my opinion

      I think they're awesome when you let the kids make the artistic choices 👏👏😭 sure there was the usual singing and dancing but
      One of my favorite acts was a kid who brought her dog and showed us all of the tricks she trained him to do. It was cute and so funny.

      Baby Blue, well I'm glad you agree with some of what he's doing as President! And to be honest I don't think he's made the best moral decisions in the past. He actually used to be a Democrat too! He's changed a lot! But in reality all he needs to do for America is he a good President. We didn't elect a pastor. We elected our leader. An nd he's doing a marvellous job! But let's just take a moment to look at the type of person you are. You call our president extremely mean names, and most of what you called him are just not true! You most likely got that information from a fake news source. So you are an immature name caller, a person who doesn't check their facts and gets mislead, and you don't seem to think for yourself. You just do what everyone else is doing and be living how terrible he is. You might be an amazing leader too, but as a person you aren't the best right now.

    As a female who has struggled with weight, and height, and seeing other women my age looking amazing and being small and tall. This video helped me. It showed that not everyone has the "perfect body" and no one is perfect to society. I saw another video showing how the social standard changed. It changes almost every 10 years. First people want a butt no boobs, then boobs no butt, then a thicker girl, then a smaller girl, and then they want boobs and butt. Social standards change ALL the time. You aren't the problem the world is. ❤

    I think, people who judge pageants kind of dismiss the hard work all these women invest in preparation and their lifestyles in general. No one becomes fit, confident, accomplished, well-kept, etc. overnight. Even this video required a high level of determination and intentionality! These are things to be admired and celebrated in anyone! There are strong ethics and values motivating people to compete. Instead of seeing the judging as negative, I think it’s helpful to see the pageantry in general as a celebration of all the things these women are collectively, and then one becomes a favorite and an ambassador to represent them all. Win or lose, it’s not like they go home without the value they came with. These are high value individuals highlighting their skills, networking, and ambitiously making gains within their communities.

    I do a pageant called NAM (national american miss) it’s different, it’s not a beauty pageant, u get judged on 4 things
    1-community service
    2-personal introduction
    3-interviews
    4- formal wear. (you get judged on the confidence that you walk not the look)
    the girls are so nice and so many people that look so different have won (ex- latinex, plus sized, very skinny, African American, Indian, Vietnamese are some i’ve seen)
    makeup is not allowed or tall heels and neither is swimsuits. they make it very clear that it is not a beauty pageant and u can even look on the judging rubric and see none of it has to do with looks, it all centers sound confidence

    During the ‘20’s, when beauty pageants where first started, it was considered a feminist statement to participate. Society was coming out of the Victorian/Edwardian era where women were expected to be demure and quiet. They were not supposed to seek attention, show off their bodies, or speak their minds. To enter a pageant ,then, was bucking that mindset. However, as society changed to see these things as normal, acceptable, and even expected the pageants were no longer an example of women empowering themselves and are viewed as outdated and opposing feminism. The thing is, feminism is supposed to be about women being able to be and do whatever they want without hinderances based on gender. That means it should be just as acceptable for a woman to be in a pageant if she chooses to be as it is for her to join the military or be CEO of a large cooperation.

  • @kath.5494
    @kath.5494 3 роки тому +7

    As someone who competes in pageants VERY similar to these pageants, let me tell you what it’s all about.
    -The pageants aren’t focused on outer beauty, the whole idea of dressing up in a pretty dress or a bikini (which the swim suit section has been taken out) is to show that you have enough self esteem to be able to strut out there and be confident. Because these girls are almost always mentors to younger girls, we have to be confident in ourselves, before we can encourage other girls to be confident in themselves.
    -this video is a bit outdated, but pageants have gotten much better at including different body types, and different races, I am Chinese, and ive never seen any Chinese person hold a title, but not many East Asians compete in the state’s so, someone has to be the first one right? It teaches your to be a leader, and to set new standards more inclusive ones, that inspire other girls, older and younger.
    -the majority of your score is not how “good you look” in a fancy dress, (even tho we have already established, that’s it’s about self esteem and confidence, not beauty) in fact the majority of your score goes to your private interview, where you can finally display how intelligent you are, and how much research you have done on your platform (or the thing in your community you want to improve) it allows girls to show their intelligence, which because of the sexist world we live in, we don’t get that opportunity very much.
    -pageant queen must live a HEALTHY not, “skinny lifestyle” but a healthy life style, which is what we should all shoot for in general, health is no joke. And since these girls are meant to be good role models, meaning we need to live a healthy lifestyle.
    -what the media shows you is just the bikinis and catty girls. People don’t understand the work that goes behind it. Not just the physical training, but also doing work (that you are not paid to do, you not paid at all in this) in your community. And yes before you ask me, catty girls have definitely slipped though the cracks of pageantry, but that with almost every kind of community, I’ve had cattier girls in my church than in pageantry.
    -in general, pageantry (if you get the right kind of pageantry) can be a great way for a girl to get a scholarship, display her intelligence on current issues, and will be great if you wanna do really any kind of job, because being able to to something this huge, is such an honor and takes such courage.

    An Acquaintance of mine, Tara Teng, entered and won Miss. Canada several years ago. She didn't do it because she wanted to win a beauty pageant. She entered because she was heart broken about human trafficking in Canada and wanted to change what was happening. No one knew what was happening, most people were oblivious to it. So she saw the pageant as a platform to voice the problem and create change. In the year that followed her title major changes started making way in Canada for human trafficking in prostitution, to protect and help victims, and create harsher punishments to those of are responsible. And the changes are still coming. She was the voice that made the first wave.

So yes pageants can be controversial and drama filled but not all of them are. Obviously since middle school ive gotten older but the fact that made it to top 3 has to this day been on of my biggest self worth accomplishments. So pageants are empowering but there are pageants like ms usa that are controversial and sexist. Everything depends on your mind set and the pageant you put ur self through.

      NaKai Jelani My geography teacher taught us about the UN my freshman year after talking about how countries are sometimes in a position geographically to succeed. World history is the next year so some learn even before world history too

      It is just that when you are in front of so many people, it kind of gets hard to think. I feel that girl did a great job especially considering all the pressure.

      thewarriorinred I’ve done pageants and your very right. It’s seriously hard to think under all the pressure. Your performing, trying to hold your poise, while trying to remember a million things, and then having to answer questions, some you may not be prepared for, it takes a lot of practice and the ability to respond to your nerves to do your best.

      Yup, that's Another unspoken rule about beauty pagents. Say What they want to here not what you want to say

    I'm only a young teenager and I'm already 5'9. Watching this really gave me confidence in my upcoming auditions in school. I can be confident just like you and embracing myself and height! Thanks for being awesome.
