Miss World pageant cancels bikini contest to appease Muslims

Miss World contest cuts bikini round to appease Muslim world

The bikini – unabashed celebrant of the female form, cornerstone of global beauty pageants in the modern era and proud cultural legacy of the 1951 Festival of Britain – is to be stripped from this year’s Miss World contest in Indonesia.

The shattering decision, which has been under discussion for some months, is a response to fears that the most traditional element of the competition could enrage the most traditionalist elements of Indonesia’s Muslim community.

Where normally the Miss World finalists would parade in minimalist attire, they will now contest the beachwear section wearing more conservative one-piece costumes and Balinese sarongs

Yes, no more objectification of women. Now fat women may apply to beauty contests.

Miss World pageant nixes bikini competition in face of religious Muslim protest threat

Who’s ready for the world famous and highly anticipated one-piece, conservative beach sarong competition? I can imagine a scenario in which a Western contestant, keen on the kind of nose-thumbing at stuffy cultural norms that lifted the dreary “Little Miss Sunshine” to Oscar commendations and would lift her to viral video fame, rips off her sarong to reveal—gasp!—a shocking two-piece swimsuit

Wonderful Idea. but

she’d probably earn a fatwa along with her fame.

 

Bikinis banned at 2013 Miss World pageant in Indonesia

Clerics of the Indonesian Council of Ulema, or MUI, said they would send a letter to President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono to demand that the beauty pageant be canceled.

"That contest is just an excuse to show women’s body parts that should remain covered," said Mukri Aji, a prominent cleric from West Java province’s MUI branch. "It’s against Islamic teachings."

Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia, a hardline Islamic group, said it planned to stage a protest and called for the competition to be moved elsewhere.

We do agree. If a country does not accept the rules of the contest, it should not cripple the contest but rather not stage it.

What is next? Non-violent boxing world championships in pacifist countries? Shooting championship without bullets? Saudi Arabia prohibits dancing (watch the video at the end of this post)

Nobody pities the poor girls? Watch the following video: the candidates worked out hard, for years, to have a great body. And then, in the Miss World Finals, they might as well gain 10 pounds, as it will not make any difference. Of course, radical feminists will applaud.

Miss Universe Bikini Competition

Most Muslims in Indonesia, a secular country of 240 million people, are moderate, but a small extremist fringe has become more vocal in recent years.

They have pushed through controversial laws — including an anti-pornography bill — and have been known to attack anything perceived as blasphemous, from transvestites and bars to "deviant" religious sects.

Of course, the real wrath of the feminist sexual trade union is aimed at male perverts who would leer with objectifying gaze at the following Miss Brazil Pageant Swimsuit close-ups

 

Lady Gaga was forced to cancel her sold-out concert in Indonesia in May following threats by Islamic hard-liners, who called her a "devil worshipper." Jennifer Lopez toned down her sexy outfits and dance moves during a show in Jakarta last December.

Westerners ought not feel superior. In the USA, in Europe, religion dominates laws on abortion, right to die, prostitution, pornography and often even shop opening hours on holy Sunday. Everywhere, religion interferes with the freedom of all citizens, be they religious or not.

 

 

Miss World pageant calls off bikini contest to respect Indonesian Muslims

One hundred thirty-seven women set to compete in this year’s Miss World beauty pageant in Indonesia reportedly won’t wear bikinis because organizers don’t want to offend locals in the Muslim-majority country. […]

“I don’t want to upset or get anyone in a situation where we are being disrespectful,” Miss World Organization chairwoman Julia Morley told the site.

  1. Well, Indonesia is a muslim country.
    So my question is – is this for this year only or for every year starting from this year?
    Beauty contests should be done in the nude, IMO, like the ancient Olympics.(otherwise it defeats the purpose.)

  2. HS:
    My suspicion is that this ban really was more about appeasing feminists than appeasing Moslems. Indonesia has several beach fronts (like Bali) where nobody’s complained much about bikinis before. I think they’re using the Moslem excuse to see how this pageant fares media ratings before they impose a permanent ban.

    1. P.S. And just to show feminist hypocrisy even further, the femihags are heralding the ‘fatkini’ (a bikini designed for notoriously obese Ameroskanks) as a breakthrough in ‘fat acceptance.’

      LOL—maybe the Indonesians thought that fatkinis would start turning up on their beaches, so this ban was pre-emptive move! LOL
