Ms. Woman United States is 40 and over, Single, Divorced, Widowed, Separated (NT) contact me at MrsUnitedStates1999@yahoo.com 08/23/14 Sat

thanks, but I"m married, so I have to stick with the "regular" Mrs US and compete with 20 somethings. (NT) sigh 08/25/14 Mon

United America has an Elite division that is 40+ for any marital status. Pageant is in Austin, TX in June. Great director, supportive contestants. (NT) www.unitedamericapageant.com 08/28/14 Thu

Well, I am hoping that the Owner of Mrs. US keep hearing this, and I can make Ms. Woman US for single OR married 40+ Let the National office know! (NT) Janice 08/29/14 Fri

Will never happen (NT) -- ITK, 08/30/14 Sat

Re: Are there enough over 40 year olds who are not married to even make this work? I can see it being over 40 any marital status, but limiting it to unmarried is too small of a market to make a go of it. (NT) -- My thought, 08/31/14 Sun

Yes -- and I'm one of them. Single, widowed, divorced -- there are a lot of us. And we can't compete in Mrs. pageants. (NT) -- Nice United States is welcoming us!, 08/31/14 Sun

What?? How are YOU in the know? I am the National Director. Please do not make comments that you know nothing about. (NT) -- Janice McQueen Ward, 08/31/14 Sun

Come on, we all know how Isabella feels about the Mrs. division of US. This was her first . She believes that if you are married, you should compete with other married women regardless of your age. There are single, divorced women over 40 and if they wish to compete, they will. (NT) Just have to wait and see how it goes 09/01/14 Mon

Janice, I will climb on board and speak out to Isabella. There are so many of us over 40 that just cannot keep up with a 20 year old body. Marital status shouldn' t matter! (NT) -- thanks for support, 09/02/14 Tue

Re: I'm on board for the 40 and over any marital status as well. There are soooo many women who would jump to compete. Just not enough of unmarried only women out there to field a pageant and keep it going. (NT) -- In for the over 40, 09/02/14 Tue

I will speak to Izzy, as well because anyone with half a brain knows that there are very few women over 40 competing at Mrs. US. It's not like Izzy is going to lose 20 or 30 contestants if she allows marriewd women to compete in the MS system. She may lose 4 or 5 but that is about the most she will lose. How many over 40 competed this year? (NT) -- JMHO, 09/03/14 Wed

there were some. I think at or over 40 were DC, MA, SD, VA, VI, VT and possibly FL, RI, WI (NT) -- there are a good number of in shape over 40 ladies every year, 09/03/14 Wed

Re:And none of them won. I agree with the over 40 any marital status as your list is a case in point of women want to compete who are over 40 and married as well as not married (NT) -- Good luck Janice!, 09/04/14 Thu

Regardless, the over 40 is never going to be significant enough to hurt the Mrs US if the MS allowed married women. (NT) -- TRUTH!, 09/04/14 Thu

Let's do this!!Speak out and speak up. I would love to have Ms. Woman United States as beautiful women 40 and over...single and married. What a wonderful pageant that would be!!! Keep trying and don't give up! I won't :-) (NT) -- Janice, 09/05/14 Fri

We both know she wouldn't allow married women in the Ms. Woman Division, even though I had a signed contract with her to allow them. That's why I cancelled my agreement with her. I do hope she allows you to change it up, but I don't think she will any time soon. I am hopeful too! (NT) -- All the best! Pam, 09/06/14 Sat

A girl's gotta dream! (NT) -- Janice, 09/07/14 Sun

And hope and pray! (NT) -- Luv ya!!!! Pam, 09/08/14 Mon

you also have to ask yourself how many ladies on that list would take a Ms title over the more prestigious Mrs one? In many states theres a big difference in recognition, some people have heard of Mrs Whatever State but not Ms or Woman. I think theres a market for it but not as big as for the Mrs. Most over 40 women who have the cajones to compete at that age are going to go after th (NT) the bigger title 09/04/14 Thu

All I ask is that you give...me...time....in a few years, we will be big if given the chance. (NT) -- Gotta try. Janice, 09/05/14 Fri
There is nothing more prestigious about a Mrs title verses a Ms title. LOVE Ms titles!!! (NT) -- Mrs but love Ms, 09/05/14 Fri

Im in. I certainly have no problem being a Ms over a Mrs. In the real world Ms is a catch all for a woman of marriageable age who may or may not be married. (NT) -- Ms or Mrs doesn't negate my beautiful 20 yr marriage., 09/05/14 Fri

I would really like to do a competitive Ms. pageant for 40+. Married women of all ages have several pageants to chose from. (NT) Not married 09/08/14 Mon

Look into International they are gaining state directors everyday 21-56 age division 09/13/14 Sat

DO NOT look into International. They are crooked as a snake, and, yes, I would testify to this under oath. -- Run away, 09/14/14 Sun

Completey agree. -- jm, 10/11/14 Sat
