Who's going to be this year's Miss Landmine Queen

Who's going to be this year's Miss Landmine Queen?

I'm trying to use humor to alleviate the shock I'm going through right now. But I'm truly at a loss for words upon reading that the country of Angola will be holding a Miss Landmine competition. With a magazine as well.

Um.
Uh.
??????????????????????????????????????????????

Yeah. It's real.

EDIT: Ok, I was just going to let this stand and not say anything. But this makes absolutely no fucking sense. Yeah. I love the idea that they're supporting these woman and proving to them that they can still be beautiful. That's commendable. And I love how they're trying to spread knowledge. Also awesome.

BUT A BEAUTY PAGEANT????? So they can tell one girl, "You are so beautiful! But not beautiful enough to be LANDMINE QUEEN!!!"

WHAT THE MOTHERFUCKING SHIT????????

	JargonTalk ©: 03/21/2007 11:54 AM Miss Landmine Angola 2007: "Angolan culture has a relaxed and open attitude to physicality and sensuality. Furthermore, beauty pageants are a huge cultural phenomenon and a firm tradition in large parts of sub-Saharan Africa, not least in Angola. A startling contrast to the politicized, often highly controversial atmosphere that surrounds such events in Europe and USA, African beauty contests are most often an uncomplicated celebration of cultural identity, not unlike Brazil’s ca rnival tradition (which is also celebrated in Angola).” This is for those with an ampu tee fetish! Somebody please tell me what 's the difference between Miss Landmine Ango la 2007 and Saartjie Baartman. It's noth ing more than pornography of mutilation for the 21st Century.
