"I read that one contestant will not wear makeup ..
Will that put her at an advantage of disadvantage ?"
Absolute advantage. You don't want to wake up with a nightmare. |

It's a contestant in Ms UK that has decided not to wear makeup.
It might put her at a disadvantage, but I think that the point she's making is more important. There's far too much expectation for women to look a certain way. More women in thd public eye who buck these expectations, the better. |

Isn’t pageantry all based on make up, and what you wear and how you handle yourself?
So I think she will be at a disadvantage… also the other girls will be stunning to begin with, it’s not like a miss would be pig ugly with no make up on, so the make is only gonna give her a little bit of an advantage.

"I didn't know miss world was still going  "
It's haunted by the ghost of Bruce Forsyth. Although as someone pointed out the story isn't about Miss World but Miss UK instead. |

I'd personally like to see all make up banned at all pageants.
And that's only because I can't get pageants banned worldwide immediately  .
Seriously, it is 2021. Male or female pageantry, should have died 1.5 millenia ago  |

Yep. Silly, shallow, superficial,and damaging.
Yet at the same time it's an ideal microcosm of what drives so much of popular culture. And values in society. I'd agree with dumping it, for obvious reasons, yet everywhere you look 'beauty& is worshipped, obssessed over, and fetishised.

A couple of times in in the past I've semi half not really, yet half non seriously(..)considered how much simpler life would be if there was no sex drive.
Thing is I love perving, hard ons, orgasms, and the beauties of the flesh, and passion, and fucking too much too.
Argh.
Again.waddaayagonnado?!?

Yes its right up there with tbe dude that stood in front of the tanks in Tiananmen Square. No make up....on someone that looks wise is already hot shit, lets see if she matches it with sweat pants and a t-shirt otherwise wearing all those outfits will kinda kills any point.
Frankly what's she's doing to me seems condescending to women and isnt making any statement. She's saying somethihg that 99% of the worlds population has known and agreed with for years, and she's doing it on the platform that no one has ever taken seriously or gives a shit so it will change nothing as most women are ahead of this issue anyway.

100% … we grow up bombarded with images of high Beaty standards … in a nice world it doesn’t matter but In the world we live in, the beauty card will get you places… (maybe take you only so far but it is inevitable to say that being beautiful and attractive gives peeps quite an advantage) x |

"PR stunt
What hapoened to the Goodwill to all people?
If it is, it's one I'm in favour of. "
I’m all about that sentiment too, but why not just go make-up free without and not speak to the media about it?
I’m probably being too harsh, after all it does set a good example to impressionable young girls that they don’t need to wear make-up to be beautiful. Then again, a contest in which women are judged mostly on their looks is not a good example to set in my opinion, given the misogynistic attitudes towards women that’s steeped in society.
The contestant, in my opinion, looks stunning without make-up so good for her. |

This!
It definitely shouldn't put her at an advantage to show natural beauty. |
