Funny thing about beauty contests, especially those for youths or very
young children: rather than celebrate diversity it seems that the aim
for most contestants (presumably fuelled by the choices of the judges)
is to be as homogeneous as possible. Sexualizing young girls with
makeup, "adult-looking" hair and skimpy outfits seems to win contests.
Full, red, pouty lips and great big velvet-painting-like eyes seem to
be a goal. These horrendous photoshop monstrosities are simply taking
these goals to their extreme. Obviously they're being used for
promotional material for these professional beauty pageant entrants.
cheers,

I believe this bears repeating:
