I went to college in the 80s - my students assumed I HAD to have done drugs - uh, no. Not even a cigarette. So I'd hate to make a blanket statement either way about a group of 52 young women. I hope "updating" the pageant doesn't mean going the way of slutty Miss USA.

Oh, I'm not saying it's impossible that some of these women may very well be virgins. However, given that they range in age from 19-23 or 24, the odds are probably slimmer than if this was taking place eons ago (also assuming all the women were still unmarried at said point eons ago). I don't think the intent of updating the pagaent is to make them all fullblown sluts, I think it's to make them more authentic, and bring them out of the late 80s/early 90s.
