Are beauty contests degrading womanhood?

Hmm. I'm a Nigerian the different ways you viewed these are the ways two close tribes in Nigeria viewed it. I'm a Yoruba, I hardly see a girl from my side doing this they consider it irrelevant even the extraordinarily beauties among them always seems not to be aware of it existence, they always live this contest to their younger juniors in high school. Ibos they are the closest to us and they live all across the crone and cranny of location but they believed seriously in beauty contest, even among the Yorubas this have now made them believe that they are the most attractive in the country. NO2 the ibos due to their high rate of pageant have made them the most rash in term of ladies esteem why they are the highest in terms of prostitution, husband & wife quarrel, the highest rate on girls displaying their body on the TV and so on I'm not backlashing tribe but I'm just relating it to my environment.

Not at all beauty contest is specially performed foe physical beauty. They have every right to look beautiful and what for is that beauty blessed by god you must show their physical beauty. But this I was talking about in other context and that beauty when a lady under normal conditions looks automatically beautiful and lovable that is a universal fact and truth behind this phenomen—author or jane Austin in her novel Mr. Darcy fell in love with an ordinary look but why she likes is described as the innocence on Elizabeth Benne and how beautifully she hatolded about the ultimate character. You are mistaken when I talk about the expressions describing the overall individuality. So far, beauty contest is all about your figure or shaping the facial response of the viewers. So I never say that beauty contests are degrading womanhood. Thanks.

In my point of view beauty contest does not degrade the womanhood, why because beauty is not regarding to physical appearance right? so every one has their own dreams they have to approach them, no one can restrict anybody.

According to me beauty contests are not degrading womanhood. This is opportunity to the woman expressing their views and show their capability but its not for physical appearance it's not a fashion show to show different type of dresses, it's just a test for inner beauty and mental maturity over society. This is not a contest of fairness and beauty of woman it is about inner beauty and fairness of woman. According to me its a total maturity, talent, capability, behavior.

Hi friends,

These topic has both the advantages with in the limits and above these it would be disadvantages.

In my point of view there are some ladies, there are showing there talents and give jobs to others, but some are just only for beauty contests wasting times and money such that they are not even helpful their husbands. So one should have beauty not only by external but also in their character.

I am not fully agreed with this that beauty contest degrading the womanhood, it gives opportunity to women to show their talent self confidence and about wearing their costumes we all know that what the designer design for them they have to represent in front of respected audience. How broad mindedness show by the audience and society to their wearing, talent and representation.

In everything there is a negative & positive points. Because in fashion field the models are trying to do their job. But the viewers who doesnt know anything about this field are trying to watch in another way which you can understand. Through the contest every women are showing their talents in a different way. And our nation always want a winner so those models who come back are all in a well respected position.

I think beauty contest is good for woman they can show off her self on the platform of film industry & can get lot of offer by filmy sectors & reality shows. woman can show there her hdn talent and also can show confidence level and way of talking communication skill & more & more thing can show there so think beauty contest is good for our culture and we can show our culture to foreign countries.

As per my view I think its not degrading the woman's prestigious. Because woman's are the important part of this earth. Some things are to be explored by woman's only like that some by men. But mens have to required change their mentality towards women's on ramp. They are exploring the things with great manner which men can't.

Beauty contest is not degrading womanhood, Everyone in the world wants to look smart and now in modern time every one is conscious about his or her dressing sense. Even a girl child wants to wear new and fashionable dress and what's wrong with that these modern outfit boosts a sense of confidence to you. Then why there is issues are made on this topic as far womanhood is concerned it depends on upbringing and culture of society which reflects beauty of a woman.
