Mrs. Chennai

[swathy]

Mini survey to know your opinion on Mrs. Chennai

[Shakthiprabha.]

I had attended MRS.chennai recently(2005). It was good as an entertainment.

As a matter of fact, when so many things are beyond our control, its a waste to argue on SUCH TRIVIAL things.

Yet as my personal opinion, I find its not very useful, esp SINCE beauty is rated skin deep (rated for looks too).

This is ONLY MY opinion in general to these competition, i DONT condemn ANY PARTIPANT or any person who hold such competition AS ITS THEIR ROYAL right to participate or conduct such.

One thing I don't quite appreciate is tat even here the contestants r made to dress in revealing ways......in the Mrs. India contest telecast last yr, the kind of Sarees they wore & the way they wore them was simply appalling! And this is wats claimed to be "modern"....!

Miss Chennai/Miss World/Miss Universe all needed..Hey we wont get ppl like Aishwarya,Sushmitha,Diya Mirza,Priyanka Chopra if they drop the idea of conducting these competitions Just for fun! As long it wont spoil the decorum of Indian culture all these kind of competions are gud!

But if it is Mrs. competition it is the headache of Mr of that Mrs....

OTOH, there'd prob. be nothing wrong if the Mrs. competitions were held in terms of real beauty (which is NOT dressing up in a "sexy" way like the "Miss" ones! ).......like, surely the contestatns cud be made to appear just as they normally look in everyday life (which wud judge more effectively how beautiful they really are!), cudn't they?
But the organisers of such contests tend to go by the gltz/glamour & "bare n dare" lines of the West jus for their own publicity....they don't care if it clashes w/ our culture or nething.......!

Why do u ppl agree MISS ones can dress up anyway they want?

Is MISS ones that the right way to judge beauty?

To be honest, I don't agree they shud be allowed to dress tat way either.....but didn't want to go overboard by sounding overly conservative or nething like tat! Also was speaking from wat I reckoned to be the viewpoint of the general society.......ie., it wud seem all the more inappropriate for married women to dress up in tat way, when they r sumone's wives & maybe even mothers (hence my comparison w/ "MISS" ones! ) ......

[Shakthiprabha.]

ok lambretta.

But yes, this is not from conservative point of view i say this, but from LOGICAL POINT OF VIEW.

how the hell can they assess beauty based on hour-glass figure or flashy smile?

Funny ideas, values.... (like I said so many cultprits to the society)

Reg....Someone else's wife or mother, its is their problem. As long as the hus is not having a problem, we need not bother bout it. (There I go again....... dont I? sorry bout it)

True......but wat I was saying was, ok, if they found no "restrictions" (for lack of a better term) for an unmarried gal to dress the way she did, they shud atleast hav sum for married women......but tats my POV!

how the hell can they assess beauty based on hour-glass figure or flashy smile?

Exactly! As I said, this is all promoting their own publicity & their own West-inspired glitz & glamour section of society.......its difficult -or even impossible- for 99% of the avg. Indian women to even attempt shaping their features & "figures" up for such contests!

Reg....Someone else's wife or mother, its is their problem. As long as the hus is not having a problem, we need not bother bout it.

I daresay there lives a MANDANGI in such hubbies......?! :P

(There I go again....... dont I? sorry bout it)

Its ok......I know u too well by now!

Most times when I watch a Miss/Mrs contest..I ponder the need for such contests.Its my opinion that the organisers have a more commercial outlook on the whole thing.That seems the more logical reason than any urgent need to find out who the most "beautiful" person in the area is.
