These Female Engineers Rocks!
People have often argued whether beauty pageants are degrading or empowering.
Beautiful women who wear their swimsuits and strut around the stage wearing their elegant long gowns are often seen as beautiful only. That’s it.
But contrary to popular belief, beauty pageants such as Miss Universe have always had an agenda in the program.
What most people ignore is the idea that whoever gets chosen as the winner has the opportunity to fight for an advocacy one believes in and prove that being a beauty queen isn’t shallow at all.
But how often do you hear female engineers joining a beauty pageant?
If you find female engineers rare, you probably think that they look and act just like men.
This may surprise you but a lot of women who pursue engineering are beautiful, smart and carry themselves with grace.
Some of them even enter beauty pageants and win.
You see, female engineers are not only capable of making engineering marvels, they’re also capable of showing off their beauty, brains and fight for an advocacy they believe in.
Here are women who have won in beauty pageants over the years.
