It's hard to lump all women who enter beauty pageant into one category. Obviously, a lot of the competition is very superficial, but I think it would be cool to have the bragging rights to a woman like Kate Shindle (former Miss America from Northwestern). She is the only beauty queen who has really ever stood out in my mind -- her platform issue was AIDS. And she talked to students and young people about safe sex and other stuff that was viewed as "controversial" by some people in the pageant business. If every beauty queen was like her, it's definitely worth bragging about.
