Of course they are...

It's not like she's posing nude on stage at the pageant..LOL

I agree with her removal because she broke the rules...but the rules are dumb. Let's face it people, the Miss America and state pageants are just pretty contests. They're shallow and demean women at least as much as porn does. 

Or, as I heard it referred to 3 decades ago by someone with an Animal Husbandry degree, a "glorified cattle judging." MOOOO...

 

 I would almost say these T& A contests are even worse than porn, because these things (especially Miss America, which is dying a slow, painful death) pretend to be about "talent" and "scholarship" and "poise" when in reality, it's about the pretty factor. At least with porn, "what you see is what you get."

In this day and age with the internet, yes it is.  And I don't really see what's funny.

I agree with your opinion about this woman being disqualified and I do so for the same reason.  To me, Miss America etc are more demeaning to women in a sense.  At least there is no pretense about porn.  Miss America takes a stereotype of "beauty" and tries to mold the women into June Cleavers with pudding for brains.
