"Amid pageantry, a cultural lesson for participants; Ethnic beauty contests teach about heritage" by Maria Sacchetti, Globe Staff | October 6, 2008
LYNN - Organizers from Colombia, India, Cambodia, Vietnam, and other countries are pushing the pageants across the United States as a way to teach contestants about their heritage, inspire them to go to college by awarding scholarships, and pay homage to their immigrant parents, who often work as factory workers, housecleaners, and laborers.
Although critics decry pageants as sexist and superficial, promoters say the ethnic contests offer immigrants a positive outlet amid the contentious national debate over immigration. At the Miss El Salvador pageant, which is for 15- to 23-year-olds, organizers pointed out that most contestants wore skirts for the swimsuit competition to make girls of all sizes feel comfortable. Still, men whistled from the audience and one prize was given out for "best legs."
Hey, it isn't like these guys are potential rapists or CHILD rapists.
"They really do have to be careful because there is such a problem today with girls and young women being pressed into early sexuality and early focus on weight and looks," said Carol Hardy-Fanta, director of the Center for Women in Politics and Public Policy at the University of Massachusetts at Boston.
Of course, the GLOBE PUTS this GLOWING ENDORSEMENT on the FRONT-PAGE!! Yeah, it's not a problem for the agenda-pushing Zionist War Daily -- unless the girls are good Catholic girls from Gloucester. Can't you see why I hate the AmeriKan MSM -- and the Boston Globe -- so much, readers?
López decided to compete after pageant organizer Karla Trigueros spotted her in an East Boston restaurant and complimented her on her makeup. At first, López balked. She is most comfortable in jeans, sneakers, and a ponytail as she shuttles between class at UMass-Boston and her part-time job at Logan Airport. --more--"
Why must this little girl be preyed upon and turned into a whore, readers?
Thanks, agenda-pushing Boston Globe.
Of course, this next item is a front-page story when even the Globe admits it should not be; however, the lying, obfuscating, agenda-pushers aren't interested in DIVIDING PEOPLE or anything like that -- IF it is in SERVICE to THEIR AGENDA!!!!
"Church pressing abortion fight; Many Catholic voters don't rank it top issue"
"Roe v. Wade could hinge on election; Abortion rights at key juncture; Democrats, GOP keep issue at bay"
Really that "urgent," huh?
"The Supreme Court is doing its best to stay out of the spotlight in the final days of the presidential campaign. It opens its new term today with no cases on race, abortion, or other social issues that might split the court and the nation."
I am so sick of the shit shell of fear!
How does it feel to be PIGEON-HOLED, STEREO-TYPED, and CONDESCENDED to, ladies, by the CHAMPION of WOMENS' RIGHTS, the Boston Globe? What Zionist-controlled dirt shit the Boston Globe has turned into!
Of course, turning the election towards the SEX ISSUES -- gays and abortion -- will help SELL the STEAL for McCain -- that is the NARRATIVE the lying, AGENDA-PUSHING MSM is going to shovel our way!!
