Except that married women 40+ don't want to be Ms. I'm proud of being over 40 and I'm proud of being married for 20+ years and don't want to be labeled Ms. I agree with the other posters that the "woman" on the end is odd. Of course I'm a woman, do I really need it added to a title? This pageant does sound fun, but the great thing is that there are are pageants for everyone and being labeled a Ms. Woman is just not for me. -- New Unofficial La La Pageantry Forum

Well that is certainly understandable, and maybe that is something the director might consider, and that is to have a Mrs. division, there are several pageants that forget about Ms all together and skip right into Mrs, my statement was truly just speaking about those of us who have not had the opportunity to be blessed in holy matrimony, at least I thought that's what we were talking about.

The Mrs. category ends at 39, thus the Ms. Woman for any woman 40 and up. Great concept and love that older women are included regardless of their marital status, but the age limit for married women is quite young. But then again, there are married women over 40 who freak out at the thought of competing against married women 21 and up so it's a toss up as to how to handle it. Either way, I think this pageant sounds great and I thank the Director for listening to everyone's opinions. We're all competitors, married or ms. over 40 or under and we all want a great event and title we can be proud to represent. I'm hoping to join the Universal family in 2013.

I agree! Hoping to join the WU family as well in 2013, the communication from the director is amazing!!! (NT) -- Becoming a WU Fan!, 11:13:08 08/07/12 Tue

What does the state crown and sash look like? (NT) -- Interested, 16:37:37 08/07/12 Tue

The sash is gorgeous! It's trimmed in silver with white on the inside and black lettering with rhinestone banding. The state crown is ab stones...very pretty and the international crown will be revealed on Sept 29th. It's a new crown....befitting an international queen. I will say that if you visit the facebook page and look at the crowns there, you will see it...you just won't know which one it is until Sept. Also, the next 10 ladies who makes their deposits of $100.00 will receive a special promotion of a total entry fee of only $200.00. Make sure you reserve your state/country title today! This offer ends on August 17th!!! You'll love the new crown! Trust me!!!! :) (NT) -- Director, 21:01:36 08/07/12 Tue
The state sash doesn't have the rhinestone banding...sorry, that's for the international winners. Here's a photo of one of my queens with her sash. The crown is changing. -- Director, 21:06:57 08/07/12 Tue

Thumbs Up! -- I'm in!!!, 23:47:12 08/07/12 Tue
