  1. Could it be that too many women can't seem to stay away from tattoos, and they can't field a team of people showing whole body shots anymore? The counterculture is now people who avoid tattoo parlors.

  2. I'm not a fan of bikinis. Not cuz I don't like women showing skin but bcuz I don't think it's that attractive. Athletic wear looks like it captures the body curves better. I like the change but make the swimwear sexy.

  3. This is absurd. Isn't this pageant supposed to highlight women that have the "whole package"… a smart, athletic, well-spoken, elegant, and beautiful female? To take the physical beauty out of the competition is like taking the muscles out of Mr. Olympia. What is so offensive about being physically attractive?

  4. Sexist when probably all their mothers got them started in pageants and most body shaming comes from other women.And why would you judge someone in a bikini is like asking why there's dog shows,you look for the best looking dog you dumb fuck.
