Transgender woman is crowned Miss Netherlands for the first time in the beauty pageant's history and will now compete for the Miss Universe crown

Because men are better at being women than women are?
Because judges from the Nether Lands are less able to discern vital, distinguishing female traits?
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A woman has been crowned Miss Netherlands for the first time in the beauty pageant's history and is now set to compete for the Miss Universe crown.

Rikkie Valerie Kolle, 22, made history after she won the competition in the country on Sunday.

The new Miss Netherlands wore a red gown as she was overcome by emotion while receiving her crown from her predecessor Ona Moody and reigning Miss Universe R'Bonney Gabriel from the USA.

The model stood victorious with a bouquet of flowers while her competitors applauded. She later took to to exclaim 'I DID IT!'

Miss Universe 2023 will be held in El Salvador in December, although an exact date has not yet been confirmed, and will see contestants from 24 countries battle it out to claim the title.

The star will be the second transgender woman ever to compete in Miss Universe.

In 2018 Angela Ponce from Spain became the first trans woman to compete for the acclaimed Miss Universe title.

She told NBC at the time that she 'never could have imagined' that she would make it to the final stage.

Transgender contestants have been able to compete for the crown since 2012.

Thai businesswoman and advocate Anne Jakrajutatip, who bought the Miss Universe organisation in October 2022, also identifies as transgender.

The pageant system was previously owned by former US president Donald Trump.

Ms Jakrajutatip has promised to continue the pageant's legacy of women empowerment and 'evolve the brand for the next generation.'

And earlier this year Daniela Arroyo González, who is openly transgender, was selected to compete in the Puerto Rico competition.

#3 Because judges from the Nether Lands are less able to discern vital, distinguishing female traits?

Which apparently would still qualify them for a job on SCOTUS like our recent AA hire.

#4 Well, "I can't define it, but I know it when I see it" is a famous SCROTUS alumnus declaration.

#5 Hopefully, the second place prize included a significant amount of counseling.

#6 As has been mentioned before, it's observed that the real females who lost out are just giddy about losing to a male. In fact, most women in general seem ok with this, as in, very few are up to rocking the sisterhoods boat. Hard to muster up even a few Fs for such a crowd.

#7 the real females who lost out are just giddy about losing to a male.

If you want to compete there, you have to make the right noises. There are career benefits for those who place well, even if they don’t go all the way. Remember, the owner is also a fake female.

#8 I question the sanity of anyone that tuned in. It is not even original. Rip Torn did a better parade of a beauty contest for $1.98.

#9 Obviously the Netherlands didn't explore "her" nether regions.

#10 Let's stick to calling the Netherlands "Holland", o.k?
