Which is creepier?
I caught VH1’s “Little Beauties” show about the world of little miss pageants. I knew they existed - the whole Jon Benet Ramsey thing - but I’d never really seen much about them. I am now officially horrified that these things exist. The girls look like…well, like dolls. They do this weird swivel walk when they show off their bathing suits, they “flirt” (at the age of 6), they do little girl striptease moves, the whole 9 yards. It was like watching a train wreck, mesmerizing. The pageant was run by this gay man, and you have to wonder how much he must hate women to be shoehorning little girls into this completely manufactured, artificial pre-pubescent version of femininity. And what the hell is wrong with these mothers? It’s just bizarre…I would hate to be the parents of any of these girls when they hit puberty. Oy.
