I loved the responses from the beauty pageant comments made earlier. Wow! Talk about a hotly debated topic.?

Beauty pageant is a misnomer at worst and a cliche at best. Talent show is a more descriptive terms these days. Skimpy bathing suits are employed to show that all the accouterments are real and not fake. This is for the fashion industry to display their wares without a hint of chicanery as the winner tours .
