THE saying is true: the Greeks have known many things first. But when they told the story of the Apple of Discord, I bet they were thinking of us Filipinos.
Millenia after, discord again is defining a civilization—ours. The cause: a title—the most beautiful woman in the universe—was thrown up into the air and our representative failed to catch it.In fact, as records show, we made the winning streak in 12 long, glittering years. We were up there, honey. It did not matter that our economy could never make it to any good list.
We have given so much importance to beauty pageants, we have become blind to the collateral damages that such absurd competitions have caused our mothers and children . Online, we see young girls being trained how to walk on the ramp. The experts call this walk “pasarela,”which in the original refers to the runway but, in the evolution of the beauty contest almanac, indicates the kind of movement made by a contestant from point to point on a ramp.
