The modern beauty pageant can trace its origin to the Miss America pageant, first held in Atlantic City, New Jersey, in 1921, under the tittle “ InterCity Beauty” contest. The following year, the tittle was renamed Miss America. Nowadays, the two largest and most famous international beauty contests include the yearly Miss World competition ( founded in 1951 ) and Miss Universe ( 1952 ). As women from around the world participate each year in the competitions for these tittles, the organizers of the major beauty contests represent their contests as events of world importance.
While many other people consider beauty contests to be agreeable entertainment events of no great importance, many feminists regard beauty contests for women as degrading to females in general, as well as to the women who compete in them.
