To be perfectly honest, I see nothing wrong with pageants. Yes, they are seen as beauty pageants, and probably always will be, but there is more to them than that. A large reason that you don't see the "ugly" people in the pageants is that they don't try out, or when they do, they feel out of place. Pageants, despite what you may believe, are less about beauty than they are about confidence and poise. You can have the most beautiful girl in the world who isn't sure of herself next to the ugliest girl in the world who is, and your attention will go to the ugly girl because of the way she holds herself.
Beyond that, take a look at some of these threads? So many people on this board, and in the Greek community, are concerned with the "look" of their organization. Does it not surprise you that these are the same women who try winning pageant titles?
