Subject: Thank you poster because I would hate to think that anyone labels a pageant as prestigious just because you are only allowed to compete at their nationals one time. Those days are coming to a close for the Mrs. America system, too. Sorry, but you could never sell that "prestigious" line to most pageant women, we are not blind or stupid. And stop with the "it's such a prestigious pageant because you can only compete one time at nationals". That just sounds so ridiculous and makes zero sense. Author: Keeping it real!

BUT, I think it's the general public who actually think it's prestigious. The general public doesn't know about the gazillions of pageants that are out there. Most of them know about 4... Miss America... Miss USA.... Miss Universe... and Mrs. America. I know those are the only ones my non-pageant friends know about. So when you tell them you are Mrs. "State" America they are happy for you. They affiliate it with the others where you can only compete once. That's just my take on it. As pageant girls we know that this system has gone down-hill." on 10/14/14 Tue [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
