We, the signed, belive that women in socitey are benig objectified and not reaching their full potential in socitey due to beauty pageants like Miss America. Women would be less objectified if the swimsuit was taken out of the pageant and replaced with a full interview. In the contest now, the interview counts for 10\% of the total score and happens behind the scenes. So we, the audience, only sees the evening wear, talent and swimsuit. If we acutally we able to meet the contestants and learn more about them through an interview, the TV ratings might possibly rise from 9.8 million up to 15.1 million or higher. So I ask you to sign this petition and agree with me that the swimsuit should be replaced with a full interview.
