 the article is mostly about one of the miss universe contestants that was representing Canada and she was disqualified because she was not actually born a woman and was actually born a man. " Miss Universe Canada officials have banned 23-year-old transsexual Jenna Talackova from participating in the pageant finals to be held in Toronto in May, 2012. The Vancouver contestant was one of sixty-five women chosen to compete in the national contest" and also the article states " Reports say that Denis Davila, national director of Miss Universe Canada, asserts that every contestant must be a "naturally born female." Critics of the decision claim that the rules do not specifically address sex change or plastic surgery." furthermore the article also stated that  “Talackova is calling it a human rights issue. She says that she knew she was a girl by age four, Ms Jenna had sex reassignment surgery at the age of nineteen. Talackova had previously competed in both transsexual and women's beauty pageants, however after this its not going to stop her from continuing her dream of showing the world her destin beauty she dreamed to be at the age of four.from yahoo.com
Discriminating a person just because they were born the opposite gender than what they believe they are or even as like is completely wrong all together , transgender people have feelings and act like us. we’re all human so we should all be treated the same , no different than the other. http://shine.yahoo.com/healthy-living/sex-change-women-allowed-enter-miss-universe-175900662.html today on April 10th the story about Jenna Talackova had been nationalized maybe not as big as trayvon martin but its big . she made her debut on TV on good morning America , because she wasn't allowed to compete in miss universe pageants she has now changed how the world views transgenders participating in miss universe contest, due to her now transgenders are allowed to participate in the miss universe contest.
