Poll of the Day > This 26 y/o is the First TRANSGENDER to Compete in Miss Montana USA PAGEANT!!!

(+) Yeah! (+)

26 y/o Anita Green is the first openly transgender woman to compete in the Miss Montana USA pageant as she said it was Trump's victory that motivated her to entering!!

She will compete against 20 others on Sunday night in Missoula as the University of Montana grad who made history last year as the first openly transgender person elected as a national delegate to a nominating convention!!

Anita is also a Democrat who is a member of the executive board of the Missoula County Democrats as she thought about entering the competition in the past but never felt ready...until Trump won

She said "I thought about it for a couple of years but i just wasn't sure i was ready for it. But i can definitely tell you that when Trump was elected into office, i knew that i needed to step up and do this. I was so nervous about this but i knew that i needed to compete. I wanted to be a positive role model in the community and instill a sense of hope within the trans community and give them some positive news."

This comes as Trump banned transgender people from the military, a policy that has since been frozen temporarily by Matti.

Anita also works for an organization of helping people who have development disabilities and has a BA in sociology with an emphasis on Social Justice and Inequality and a minor in Communications

She's a hired pageant coach who worked with Miss Washington USA and practiced walking in heels which Anita said "I would describe my pageant runway walk as being on par with Sandra Bullock's character from Miss Congeniality"

She lost 50 pounds by changing her diet and exercise routine and found that being in a pageant has been good for her lifestyle and has been using youtube tutorials with her makeup. She's also never been in a bathing suit before but she's excited to showcase what she has and although she knows it's a longshot she'll win, just competing has made her stronger as a trans woman and hopes other transgender woman will compete in beauty pageants.

She came out at 17 and began hormone replacement therapy the following eyar and has lived full time as Anita since 19.

Do you support transgender contestants in beauty pageants?.

Mad cuz you can't have her?

Well she ain't gonna win

If they are one of the 1/100000 transgenders who may have so legitimately born in the wrong body that they look like chicks without trying and when they do try are utterly indistinguishable I couldn't care less.


If not they don't belong in the pageant

I figured this person hailed from Missoula before I even entered the topic, lol.

But no; I don't support transgenders in male/female competitions like this, be it beauty or physical. There should be a separate entry for them.

Sure why not. Everyone wants to look fabulous.

I wonder if the other 20 contestants also look fairly average.
