Episode 34: Hong Kong Beauty Pageants... More Harm than Good?
Update: 2022-03-02
Description
In this episode, Chrystal and Summer discuss the history, process and implications of the Ms Hong Kong Beauty Pageant. They dissect the problematic recruitment and judging process, and the inevitable nature of sexualising female contestants. They also touch upon Hong Kong's gossip culture and how different factors of their lives, from their parents, friends and media contributed to how they see "beauty". All in all, they reflect on the negative impact that these shows have on Hong Kong society's definition of "beauty" and how the greater system further reinforces these toxic beauty standards.
