Ngenkathi uGretchen Carlson, ongusihlalo webhodi labaqondisi be-Miss America, ememezela ukuthi lo mncintiswano ngeke usaba yingxenye yokubhukuda, wahlangatshezwa yindumiso nokubuyela emuva. NgeSonto, u-Nia Imani Franklin waseNew York uwine umncintiswano wokuqala ongenazo izingubo zokubhukuda. Ngesikhathi ekhuluma nabezindaba ngemuva kwalokho, wakhuluma ngokushintshwa kwakamuva emqhudelwaneni kazwelonke, ebiza isinqumo sokuhoxiswa komncintiswano wezingubo zokubhukuda.

"Ngicabanga ukuthi lezi zinguquko zizoba zinhle enhlanganweni yethu," kusho uFranklin, ngokusho kwe I-Associated Press. "Sengibonile abesifazane abaningi abasebasha bezama ukufinyelela kimi njengoMiss New York, bebuza ukuthi bangazibandakanya kanjani ngoba ngicabanga ukuthi bazizwa benamandla amakhulu ukuthi akudingeki benze izinto ezinjengokuhamba ngesudi yokubhukuda Futhi ngiyajabula ngokuthi bekungadingeki ngenze njalo ukuze nginqobe lesi sicoco namuhla kusihlwa ngoba ngingaphezu kwalokho nje. Futhi bonke laba besifazane esiteji bangaphezu kwalokho nje." (Kuhlobene: UMikayla Holmgren Uba Umuntu Wokuqala One-Down Syndrome Ukuncintisana Ku-Miss Minnesota USA)

ICYMI, uCarlson umemezele izinguquko ezizoholela ku-"Miss America 2.0" on I-Good Morning America emuva ngoJuni. Kusukela lapha kuye phambili, uthe, abahluleli ngeke "bahlulele abazongenela ukhetho lwethu ngokubukeka kwabo kwangaphandle." Ngaphezu kokusuka ekwehluleleni abangenele umncintiswano ngokusekelwe ekubukekeni kwabo, babenethemba lokugcizelela kakhulu ingxenye yethalente neyokufunda. "Kuwo wonke umncintiswano, abazongenela ukhetho bazoba namathuba okumela izinhlelo zabo zenhlalo," kufundeka indawo kaMiss America ebuyekeziwe. "Futhi ukukhombisa ukuthi bakulungele kanjani ukuthola umsebenzi othokozisayo, onselele wezinsuku ezingama-365 weMiss America." Lolu shintsho ngumzamo wokuletha umncintiswano usesikhathini ngesikhathi se- # MeToo, kusho uCarlson esitatimendeni, ngokusho kuka I-CNN. (Nansi indlela inhlangano ye-#MeToo esakaza ngayo ukuqwashisa ngokuhlukunyezwa ngokocansi.)

NjengoFranklin, ngeke sithi siyaxolisa ukubona ingxenye ye-swimsuit ihamba. Sekuyisikhathi sokuthi laba besifazane (noma yimuphi owesifazane ngaleyo ndaba) bangahlulelwa (ingasaphathwa eyokuthola amaphuzu!) ngokusekelwe endleleni ababukeka ngayo begqoke ibhikini noma ngenye indlela. Laba baqhudelana abahlakaniphile nabaqhutshwa manje sebengabaluleka ngamathalente abo kanye nezinto abazithandayo, hhayi ukunikezwa isikhundla sokuthi izinqe zabo zibukeka kanjani ezingxenyeni ezimbili ezikhazimulayo.
