Miss America pageant will allow men to compete

As of early 2026, the Miss America organization has updated its eligibility requirements to include transgender women who have undergone specific medical procedures, a policy change that has drawn controversy and legal challenges.

Updated contracts for the 2025 competition season define “female” as either a person born female or an individual who has “fully completed Sex Reassignment Surgery via Vaginoplasty (from male to female) with supporting medical documentation and records”.

Surgical Requirement: The policy specifies that only vaginoplasty is acceptable to meet the requirement; no other gender-affirming surgeries will suffice.

This country has gone to Hell.
