Something that quite annoys me...
Ok so there is obviously a "Miss England" and "Miss Great Britain" competition.. but there is a "Miss Black Britain" So why is there no "Miss White Britain" or "Miss Asian Britain" or anything else. Why is there a "Miss Black Britain" When there is no other compeitions for specific races... |

That sounds really stupid. Who started Miss Black Britain?
I guess anyone can start a Miss pageant these days. We're are the Miss Gay Britain? |

I can see the argument that it encourages segregation rather than integration but if things were more equal maybe they wouldnt have felt the need to do it

Aneka Johnson, event organiser, said: "It's not segregation at all. We are trying to promote black women.
"If there was more of an even reflection of this then I don't think there would be a need for a Miss Black Britain contest in the first place." She added that the contest, set up in November 2006, was born out of the frustration with the lack of black British female role models and pioneers especially in the area of fashion and entertainment. "Miss Great Britain has been dominated by a lot of white girls for a long time and many judges or even the contestants who go ahead for it are mainly white," she said. I just found this from the organiser |

Doesnt make it any different to me that they should be just going in for the same competitions as everyone else why should they been promoting black women just because of their skin colour?
There is some beautiful black women and they should enter the "Miss Great Britain" contest and would do perfectly well.. |

Categorising different races etc. in competitions like this is a step backwards in my opinion at a time when we are trying to promote equality. |
