[> [> [> Subject: Gee, have you not gotten the memo? Those of us who do not have children are 2nd class citizens and some gals/society make no bones about telling us that!! I cannot believe this has not been explained to you before....by some fellow "full of herself" contestant. I remember one time receiving a phone call regarding who won our state pageant Mrs A pageant and the caller made the comment that she was disappointed because the winner did not have any children! No that takes balls!!

[> [> [> [> Subject: That's so ridiculous! My Mrs America state pageant has had an equal amount of women with children as without children. The judging does not include whether they're a MOM or not. In fact, some of them may not be able to conceive a child. How unfair that would be if having children was taken into consideration!
