Multicultural Women's Beauty a force to reckon with at Beauty Pageants

Miss Venezuelan - Miss Universe 2009 Winner

Rachel Christie, First Black Miss England

Gone are the days when blue-eyed, blonde hogged the beauty titles. As our world becomes more multicultural and unified in a way things are changing for the better. Those beautiful "exotic to white folks" beauties are strutting their stuff and winning big.
Of course we've always known that beauty does not come in one race or colour but is everywhere in nature, if we look with an open mind.

For the first time in the history of British pageant, the title went to a young black Rachel Christie and last evening's Miss universe again went to Miss Venezuela -18 year old Stefania Fernandez the second consecutive win for Venezuela. Most Venezuelans are a cultural mix of European, African and Amerindians descents )even though they may not want to admit it) and many of these women take the best of each cultural groups to their advantage that makes a winning combination. The runner up this year was from the Dominican Republic.

It is refreshing to see that unearned benefits and privileges are becoming less and less in our modern diverse universe where every girl stands a chance of winning based on her qualifications and qualities and specific beauty.
