Nowhere in this thread do I see anyone praising the location of the pageant. Selecting Nigeria or any other locale with religious zealots, particularly those that restrict women's rights or punish or maim them for simply being female, was a major tactical blunder by the pageant's organizers. That's the only thing I see satirized by the message poster.
I see no one defending the pageant, either. So where are you coming from, Napolean? What's your beef with the members of this forum?
Do you assume that all westerners believe women should be paraded in front of an audience? Or do you simply have a problem with women dressed in appropriate beachwear per the posted photo? Yes, that's right, I think they're dressed well, and no, I don't have any immoral thoughts about them. I have no desire to go to or even see a pageant on television. Hey, I even missed Victoria's Secret the other night!
However, to encourage and facilitate reproduction, it does help that women are generally shaped in such a visually pleasing manner.
Evil? No way! It's God's or Allah's way or a genetically passed hormonally generated instinct to ensure continuation of the species. Just be sure to respect the rights of all women along the way; their right of choice of friends and companions, the right to an education and career, and the right to say no.
Thank God for the young and healthy and the natural urge to mate! They're the ones who can reproduce and parent more little boys and girls who grow up to be teachers, doctors, scientists, airline pilots, ministers, counselors, ambassadors, heads of state, astronauts, paramedics, fire control specialists, police officers, soldiers.....oh, and lawyers! Well, they can't all be perfect!
Let me tell you about my career experience with women. I have found that women have an innate feel for flying. They have the ingrained potential to handle an airplane far smoother than most men. Women also make excellent air traffic controllers and supervisors and facility chiefs. As a matter of fact, they do most everything equally as well if not better than men.
I take issue with your statement that we westerners are out to demoralize the minds and souls of the young everywhere. I believe that the Taliban and a few other fundamentalist organizations and governments hold that mandate.
