Congratulation miss universe 🎊🎊

Holy Cow !

Women Scientist and Engineers deserve to be crowned, not these useless contestants.

Women complain of sexism & misogyny yet compete in these beauty pageants where they’re judged for their body and looks.

Why doesn’t this air on television anymore Wtfff?

You can only win if you are beautiful, it doesn’t matter how smart you are or what your ideas are. This competition is useless.

At least she’s actually pretty, and not a 600lb blimp.

“Ugh..”

NO ONE CARES

Meanwhile this is the reality for women in the U.S.👇🏼 'We have spent our whole lives working towards our futures, and without our consent or input, our control over our futures has been stripped away from us.'

Proud of you, Harnaaz🇮🇳
