The Miss Universe Canada organizers concede Jenna Talackova is a “real girl,” but that doesn’t mean they will let her in their beauty pageant.

Talackova, a native of Vancouver, will not be competing in this year’s Miss Universe Canada pageant because she was born a male.

According to Denis Davila, national director of Miss Universe Canada, the rules set by the Miss Universe franchise state that each contestant must be a “naturally born female.”

    Genetics are genetics, do the test. XX is still different than XY.

    I heard and read about this foolishness. I am not sympathetic. Well folks, we have a stupid Law in Canada. Some of them have lost their sense of common sense if they have any, principle and sin.
    He/she plans to sue. What else is new?
    Types like that are not ashamed of themselves. They will challenge every one and the Law. He was born a boy/masculine gender and this is how God sees him until he dies to eternity.
    St. Paul said, “Remain in the status where God has placed you.”
    Those are godless people. Imagine at the age of four he knew that he was a woman. Such nonsense. The parents are at fault. Then he commenced taking hormone treatment and whatever else at the age of 14. These countries have some very sick people, changing their sex to another one. Taxpayers pay for this including tatoos.
    Now the government is crying that they have a deficit, denying the needy of certain funds, decreasing them and will be laying off staff.
    A mess that we are in due to their over-expenditure and some scandalous spending. I will be writing my MP about that. If they want a sex change they should pay for it. If they also want tattoos and to remove them they should pay for it.
    The Ontario budget will be brought down in a few days. Who knows? There is talk that it may bring the government down. It is in the minority by only “one”. I am eagerly awaiting the result. I used to vote for that party but I no longer support it and will not vote for it.
    Let me further inform you, people must stand up and be counted for what is fair, just and right to do but respectfully and peacefully.
    There are pros and cons but changing one’s gender is not . In the eyes of God it is wrong. This is what happens when some parents sway away from God and do not indoctrinate their children in the faith. God will hold them accountable. Being brought up in that manner, they do not know the difference of right from wrong and expect that others will accept their views and actions. There is a lot of this occurring in those so-called progressive countries. So much for them. A sure Hell for some of them.

    Some people are born with both male and female genitals. You have a young man in Trafalgar just like her. Trust me these people didn’t choose to be different, God made them that way. And he doesn’t make mistakes, try to be a little kinder it could be your family. So much hate and discontent in Dominica can’t we all just get along?

    This world sure is becoming scary!!!
    imagine meeting a her/him(whatever) and thinking that you got lucky when in fact you are being taken for a ride.

    i seriously pity the next generation, and im gonna start praying that my son doesn’t meet one of these confused individuals who would tell him that he is a woman and has been from the age of four.

    God help them

      @ coco

      They would soon find out that she is a he and they would be extremely angry. Some men would be so angry that they would kill her/him if they found out. No matter what, it is not hidden. There are stories about that.

    Can you say that this issue is going to court! Human Rights violation right there!

    • Seriously
      March 26, 2012

      @HR Human what? What gives humans the right for a man to enter a woman’s pageant? If you are a wolf and you put on sheep skin it does not make you a sheep. Going under surgery to become a women does not make you a woman. The rule says naturally born female, it means men stay out, no trannys allowed. Trannys and get their own show. So the pageant people have no rights? stupes, people like you trample on the rights of others to push your agenda.

        Obviously, you guys don’t know much about RIGHTS …. if she is considered a woman by all means, legal and otherwise, then the term “naturally born female” can be discriminatory and exclusive. Get real, stop let all the emotions blind you guys…

        read this story … it may just be taken further
