I cringed for a lot of this episode.
I did a pageant when I was 8 and did Barbizon at 14. I also have friends who still do pageants.
They aren't all dumb and vain. My friend is a military Captain pursuing a law degree.
The winner of Miss USA is a chemist that works for a division of NASA. She just isn't versed in social justice. She also clarified on Good Morning America the next day. I can see how nerves could have effected her, she even had a nervous laugh in the audio. She is a scientist so she probably doesn't have the same experience speaking in front of crowds as yall comedians. And she was in front of the world.
Just because a girl is into makeup and looking pretty doesn't mean she cant also be smart or that she has some kind of internal conflict.
That false dichotomy is annoying.
