Did you miss this bit? a contest billed as the world's largest transgender pageant.

I'm sorry, but 1st runner up, "Miss" Brazil is just damn UGLY!

First runner up? Got a head like a dropped pie. Nothing female about that face. Looks like it could do with a shave too. Look better in a singlet and thongs (flip flops for the ignorant) working on a building site.

After 30+ years in Asia, I really don't need lessons in identifying genders thank you.

Isn't part of the point of holding these pageants to prove that transgenders, kratoeys etc are more beautiful than 'real women'? Reading between the lines here is what's called for. I had seen it done it and ticked it off LONG ago, so walking in the areas you indicate has been a thing of the past for many years now.

Looks like she sure could pack a punch.

Is the one to her right Michael Obama?

In for a sword fight is more like it.

It was close, but the judges went in the back office and decided to coin a flip. errr..flip a coin, I meant.

There should be a law against men impersonating women or vice versa.

I always will take the vice over the versa.

They are beautiful, admit it.
