Are beauty contests corrupting society? (Who are we to measure beauty?)
To start with, beauty contests have never been part of our country’s culture - not even our race’s culture. The first modern beauty pageant was held in 1854 by P.T. Barnum, but was closed down by public demand. I guess they had more sense than we do now. And then when Miss America was held in 1921, we also decided to copy and paste it in Africa.
