A group of former beauty queens held a press conference at the Karachi Press Club on June 23, 2023, to encourage young girls to join pageants. The former beauty queens, who represented Pakistan at various international pageants, spoke about the positive experiences they had as pageant contestants and how pageants can help young girls develop confidence, poise, and public speaking skills.
The former beauty queens also addressed some concerns about pageants, such as the potential for sexualization and the pressure to conform to unrealistic beauty standards. They said that pageants can be a positive experience for young girls if done in a safe and supportive environment.
The Miss Pakistan World pageant organization organized the press conference. The organization's founder, Nadia Hussain, wanted to dispel some myths about pageants and encourage young girls to see them as a positive opportunity.
"Pageants are not just about beauty," Hussain said. "They are about empowering young women and teaching them to be confident and independent."
The press conference was well-attended by young girls and their parents. Many girls said that the former beauty queens inspired them and considered joining a pageant.
"I think pageants are a great way to build confidence and learn new skills," said 16-year-old Ayesha Khan. "I'm definitely considering joining one."
The press conference was a positive step in dispelling some of the myths about pageants and encouraging young girls to see them as a positive opportunity. It is important to note that pageants can be a positive experience for young girls, but it is important to choose a safe and appropriate pageant for them. Parents should also be involved in the decision-making process and should talk to their daughters about their expectations for the pageant.
