With Sweden, the world comes a full circle

This year, the Swedish were deprived of their annual eye-candy. The feminists, banned Miss Sweden successfully.

The notable fact is, that they banned it quoting "Objectification of women" and "Treating women as sex objects". While in India, we consider beauty pageants as progress, and the opening up of the societal attitude towards women.

A couple of years ago, Miss Afghanistan took part in Miss Universe contest and this was highly acclaimed by the developing world as the new face of a progressive democratic Afghanistan, and the only ones who condemned this were the fanatic islamic clerics.

Isn't it funny that though different in nature, both the feminists and the fanatic clerics have talked about the same thing - a ban of beauty pageants?

I don't really think the pageants are all that bad myself. I wonder if any girl who won a title at one of these competitions, would not agree that it changed her life for the better, forever?

I personally think, all feminists are women who never made it to the pageant themselves. He he.

Just kidding there, but dont ya think the world doesnt really progress or regress, it just goes around in circles? In a few decades, maybe Afghanistan and India will too ban the very 'progressive' pageants in the name of feminist idelogies, and then maybe Sweden will start them all over again, and then... The saga goes on!!!!!!
