Really now why the restriction against ppl with kids...or married women?
Thats like looking at a contestant as pretty as Liya Kebede and saying no you not eligible when she has the face, body, grace and intelligence to compete.
Must be a man that decided these rules cuz only them would want women in a beauty competition that are "unencumbered" ripe for potential liasons.

STEUPS

Anyway is allyuh ting do what yuh like.

Where the winner of this competititon going?
They going any further...at least those others you competing on a world stage and you more at the whim of an int'l org. but with this competition for "nationals" I find its stupid.

Also if they want "moral women" they should also have a mandatory test for virginity in order to be eligible.

I jus here with a headache so in general I'm annoyed and reading the reqs. jus trigger this whole 2 diff. standards for men and women and women in general abiding by dumbass standards set by others.

Right so the ones that have their stretchmarks without the kids are double offenders.
