Good news for fat feminists everywhere: you can enter the contest and, rather than be judged on white patriarchal standards of beauty, be judged instead on "talent and brain".
Seems to me this is sending mixed messages to all the "thick" women out there.

Some women are pretty, some are not. Some blokes are handsome, some are not. That's life, get over it and if some want to use their physical attributes to their advantage it's up to them, nothing to do with anyone else and if it gives us mere mortals pleasure to look at their beauty, so what? Everyone of us is happy, leave us all alone!

No, brains are not ‘God given’. Some people are smarter than others, but with hard work and study most people can increase their knowledge on a subject.
Between the ages of 18 and 21 students at university extend their knowledge of their particular subject. They have actively applied themselves to learning.
A pretty 18 year old who is still pretty at 21 owes everything to her genes.

Let's take a comparison shall we?
How many professional footballers get picked on their intellectual acumen as well as their football skills?
How many football fans would prefer their favorite footballers with A-levels.
Come on folks, beauty contests are just that..BEAUTY CONTESTS...the clue being in the title.

I disagree. If it isn’t there to begin with no amount of study – or money - will put it there. If we have any sense at all we make the most of what we have – but even if we do that, it doesn’t follow that every duck becomes a swan nor every determined student an Einstein. It simply doesn't happen.

True.........but are you saying that the professional beauty contestant doesn't have to make sacrifices? Honing their bodies, taking advice from past winners, we don't know what goes on between contests, as it may not be as casual as you may think.
BUT.....I say again.....it is a BEAUTY CONTEST.

Aside from now eating cake for every meal, beauty contestants don’t have to do much to be beautiful.
Taking advice from previous winners???
Yes, I can see how that would work:
“Excuse me, can you tell me how you won last year?”
“Oh yeah, it was pretty easy - I just made sure that the genes my parents gave me were better than anyone else’s. Now if you would excuse me Miss Widdecombe, I’ve got other interviews to do”.

Just about everyone who applies themselves will improve and expand their knowledge of a subject. Not everyone will be an Einstein, but just about everyone can improve their minds.
Judging women on their beauty is archaic.
There’s literally no difference between Miss World and Crufts, apart from the amount of back hair involved.
