A scandalous selfie

Maybe I am also just damaged by living on a university campus with a 80% share of females.
Miss Lebanon is smoking hot, though!

And my winner is



Miss China. Tall, feminine, gorgeous. India and Indonesia must be 1st and 2nd runner ups. Indonesia in particular wowed me. It is one thing to see professional pictures on internet, and completely different impression when you see those girls live:



(Poor Miss Georgia really recognisable even on this bad pic due to the lack of tan).

As for the most hilarious national costume many Canadians here must feel proud for their Miss :

^^ Would you believe it? Canada was actually chosen into top 5 National Costume finalists.

Why would it be surprising? It's not like this is a serious competition.

Canada is good at a lot of things! Relish this moment!

You can't always be sorry for everything, eh?

 

[warpus]

It's an immoral parading around of women as objects, nothing to be proud of.

I've never understood why people are so fascinated by this trash. The internet has enough porn as it is.

 

[Terxpahseyton]

I don't think I have ever known someone who is fascinated by it.

 

[Tigranes]

Well, I am. And there's nothing and nobody more beautiful in the universe than a beautiful woman. God LORD Almighty started the Creation with the light (you need that c^2 before you create that E and that m) and He completed the Creation with the Woman. And when it says she was gooood you agnostics better believe it.
Now, who is the most beautiful woman? I asked that the organizer of the first Miss Armenia. Most beautiful woman is the one next by your side, he answered. Get it single guys and stop this talk about objectification!

Of course, He doesn't declare woman, independently, good, just humankind collectively, along with everything else he created on the sixth day.

 

[Tigranes]

Amen, brother! I hope you do realize I was only half serious in this thread.

 

[warpus]

Didn't Satan make women while God made men? Maybe I have my mythology messed up...

 

[Terxpahseyton]

Well, I am.

So you are the one.

More seriously - I can relate to appreciating female forms. Duh, being a heterosexual guy. Those contests just aren't the context in which I like to do so.

Women were made from one of Adam's ribs. Poor Adam.

Best damned restaurant in Chicago.

Calling beauty porn is same as calling porn corn. Miss Universe is a spokesperson for organization that actually helps people, like those hit by typhoon in Philippines. Being bitter never helped anyone including your own soul.

Feeling disappointed with the way Miss Universe is being judged. Very little diversity among judges, only one Asian dude, the rest are European-American. Preliminary judges are different from "celebrity" judges which does not make any sense -- "less" important people end up deciding the fate of 73 girls, while main judges have to work with who's left (top 15)!

To get into top 15 every girl had to pass through one on one interview with judges. How Ukraine passed that stage? She could not even understand the Facebook question. Ukraine's Miss Universe organizer married Trump's 72 y old billionaire friend while in her mid-20s. I can't believe Trump has no say in Miss Universe selection. He does and it shows...
