record to become becomes Miss America’s first ever transgender
as critics accuse the competition of ‘allowing opportunities to be
stolen away from female contestants’.
Brian who is a student of business management become Miss
America’s first-ever transgender contestant to win a local
pageant.
The win from Brían Nguyen’ transgender stirred a lot of criticism from critics who
accused the competition of ‘allowing opportunities to be stolen
away from female contestants’.
Earlier this month, Brían Nguyen, 19, made Miss America history
when she became the first transgender woman to win the Miss
Greater Derry title.
The Miss Greater Derry Scholarship Program, set up by the Miss
America Organization, welcomes contestants between the ages of
17 and 24 who are judged on their ‘their achievements in
scholastic, aptitude, talent, character, community service, and
poise’, according to their website.
In April, the business management student will compete against
other local title holders to become Miss New Hampshire 2023.
The winner of the state round will then proceed to participate in
the wider Miss America pageant later in the year.
Writing for the Daily Fetched, 42-year-old former Miss Great
Britain said:
‘I won the Miss Great Britain competition in 1998 and
aside from all the glitz and glamour on the surface, it involved a
lot of time and effort.
‘Seeing the news that Brían Nguyen won the pageant made me
think how I would feel if I was beaten by a large biological male
after spending months training and preparing for the contest.
‘Winning the competition opened up a world of opportunities to
me, a result of being allowed to fairly compete in an era absent of
woke ideology. Sadly these young women today are not being
given the same chance.’
The former beauty queen went on to accuse the pageant of being
‘desperate to appear woke and inclusive’ to appeal to younger
generations.
She added: ‘Brian Nguyen has just been lucky enough to be born
in the right era.’
‘For the sake of females going forward, we cannot allow this, they
don’t even realize the opportunity that has been stolen from them
by a biological male and it’s out of control.’
Ecstatic about her win, Brían Nguyen’ transgender took to her Instagram page to
celebrate the landmark achievement, stating that words can’s
describe what the win means to her.
She wrote:
“In the 100-year history of Miss America, I have officially become the FIRST transgender titleholder within the Miss America Organization.
‘No words can describe the feeling of having the opportunity to serve my community and represent my community for the very first time at Miss New Hampshire.
‘I am so honored to be crowned your new Miss Greater Derry 2023, and I am thrilled to show you all what I have up my sleeves. This will be an amazing year.”
