Subject: Feel bad for those women? Really---when they had how many years to compete year after year after year (and probably in multiple of border-hoping states)....they had plenty of chances. Author: By now those born in 1997 should be in graduate school, working jobs and even being married.

Subject Author Date Sure, it should be the same amount of years for EVERYONE. Stop changing it over and over. What if you took time off expecting to have a certain amount of time. It’s disappointing (NT) No name (136-56-73-253.googlefiber.net/136.56.73.253) 12:41:50 03/13/24 Wed Exactly. The 28yo extension was simply a money grab. The girls who compete at that age were typically already in the program, don't have what it takes to win, but feel they have to try 'one last time'. *In a fair state*, if you haven't won in 2-4 state competitions, depending on the size of the state, you won't. And before you post anecdotal stories of how Susie won on her 7th try, don't. We all know the girl who is wonderful, but lacking somehow who keeps hoping she'll win, by only changing her gown. (NT) No name (NoHost/104.28.104.79) 12:47:31 03/13/24 Wed So then make it a state competition limit. TN used to have one that said you could only compete at state a total of 3 times, even if you didn't age out (NT) -- No name, 15:10:34 03/13/24 Wed (072-187-151-082.res.spectrum.com/72.187.151.82) That’s assuming everyone woman got into pageants right at 17/18. If we want to keep brining woman into pageantry we have to stop operating from those assumptions (NT) No name (96-83-118-198-static.hfc.comcastbusiness.net/96.83.118.198) 14:14:15 03/13/24 Wed Seriously, how many of the 26, 27, & 28yo's are new comers to pageantry? It's a money grab by Robin. (NT) -- No name, 16:09:06 03/16/24 Sat (NoHost/104.28.103.81) I know several young woman who got started in their early 20’s (22-23) COVID put a half and are still in their early years at 25,26,27 (NT) -- No name, 23:04:59 03/16/24 Sat (NoHost/104.28.92.201)
