I told you I could probably write an article a day about males erasing females.
Bailey Anne Kennedy, a male, will represent Maryland at the Miss USA competition in August.
Kennedy is the first transgender, Asian-American, and military officer’s spouse to win Maryland.
From DC News Now:
Anne told morning anchor Cory James her history-making win was her first pageant. She said the moment she learned she won was a “whirlwind because I knew it was bigger than me. I knew that it was going to mean a lot for all the LGBTQ kids out there who might feel like they don’t belong in a box – like me growing up.”Anne hopes her win will encourage LGBTQ+ kids to be themselves. When asked if she had to overcome any fears of being the only trans woman in the pageant, Anne said she did not and felt supported by the “sisterhood” of women competing with her on stage.“I felt confident in my own skin at 31, which is past the old age limit, which is 28 — as you know Miss Universe Organization lift the restriction now — so every woman of all ages can compete.”
When Kataluna Enriquez won Miss Nevada in 2021, he became the first male to compete for Miss USA.
In 2022, Brian (pronounced Bree-Ann) Nguyen won Miss Greater Derry 2023 and a spot in the Miss New Hampshire pageant. Yeah, he won the local pageant.
In 2023, two men competed for Miss Universe. A male won Miss Portugal and Miss Netherlands.
Miss Italy organizers have banned males from the competition:
“Since it was born, my competition has foreseen in its regulation the clarification according to which one must be a woman from birth,” Miss Italy Official Patron Patrizia Mirigliani said during an interview with a local outlet and reported by Newsweek.”Probably because, even then, it was foreseen that beauty could undergo modifications, or that women could undergo modifications, or that men could become women,” she added.
