Teen Beauty Pageants, Such as the California Teen Scholarship Pageant
While beauty pageants have gotten a bad name over the years, there are some
great pageants out there that help women further their academic aspirations. The
California Teen Scholarship Pageant is one such pageant that isn't all about
beauty or modeling, it's about helping women further their education, build
confidence, and even give them a leg up on helping in their local community.
These pageants really are much different than your traditional teen pageant or
beauty pageant and are worth looking into for every woman.
The great thing about scholarship pageants is that they don't focus on beauty
alone. Of course, judging does include beauty and poise, but it's not just about
beauty. In fact, these scholarship pageants usually do not have a swimsuit or
talent judging, which is a load off of most girls' minds. In fact, pageants like
the California Teen Scholarship Pageant usually judge on grade point average,
poise, beauty, and overall personality and aspirations. This means that every
teen, whether she has been in pageants all of her life or this is her first one.
In fact, teen pageants such as the California Teen Scholarship Pageant encourage
young women from all backgrounds and all experience levels to get involved. Most
of the teens that get involved with these scholarship pageants are first time
pageant competitors. California pageants report that many of the girls compete
once and come back the next year with a couple friends so that they can all
compete and hopefully win a scholarship to help them to go the school of their
choice. The great thing about this is that good portions of the teens are on an
even playing field, so that anyone truly can win. You don't have to be the most
beautiful teen in the state to win this pageant, because it's about so much more
than that.
Most of the teen scholarship pageants allow girls to register for the
competition online or through the mail. You'll usually be required to send a
picture and an essay or completed questionnaire in ahead of time and then a
judging panel will determine who will go on to compete in the actual pageant.
Teens that do not get into the pageant the first time they apply should not be
deterred; instead they should plan to apply again the following year. These
scholarship pageants really are a great way to help pay for school, which we all
know is extraordinarily expensive.
If there is a teen in your life that needs to build some self-confidence or
could use some help paying for college, a pageant such as the California Teen
Scholarship Pageant is a great idea. This pageant is all about rewarding the
girl that is going places, to make college more affordable and reward her for
all of her hard work. The most traditional aspect of these pageants is the
evening gown round, which only requires that the teens wear a long dress. The
teen can pick any type of dress that she wants, so she feels comfortable and is
able to portray her personality. The evening gown round is done to help the
judges determine the teen that is able to carry herself well in every situation.
Many teens are looking for a way to get noticed, to pay for college, and help
build their resume and self-confidence. Pageants such as the California Teen
Scholarship Pageant can help a teen do all of these things, and more. These
scholarship pageants really are a confidence builder, and can be the one thing
that catapults a young woman to a place where she can succeed and do the very
best at whatever it is she wants to do.

Why the beauty pageants should not be banned?
plz express views "for" this topic not takin children beauty pageant into
consideration...as a general topic..
I think beauty pageants are boring, inane crap BUT as long as there are women
happy to be judged, and people willing to do the judging, I really don't see any
problem in their doing so. What I DO object to, however, are the children's
pageants, popular in the States, which turn pretty little girls into
self-obsessed mini-teens swinging their non-existent hips and little flat chests
to provocative music while made up like your average streetwalker.
Appearance, edicate, and confidence are all things that are admirable to
everyone; and pagents promote these things. Pagents promote good health,
personality, and give scholarships to the deserving winners. It encourages girls
and women to be well-rounded ladys. It takes work, but what you learn is worth
it
I am actually "pro" pageants for teens and older because I chose to participate
in them when I was younger and found they gave me confidence, public speaking
skills, comfortable doing interviews and the ability to smile for hours on end
:)
From what I observed, pageants were a choice. NOONE forced their teenage
daughters into it (now children pageants are different and I won't address that)
but I have seen high budget and low budget pageants and did not see a reason for
them to be banned. Ofcourse the people who did poorly in them would probably
state otherwise |
