Cheerleading and beauty pageantry.
But it is women, and the men who delight in the obstinate overindulgent sensuous feasting on the so called eye candy -with a spin on the pretense of judging not only beauty but also intelligence and charitability- who support this introspective indulgence.

One thing is for sure, that's a sure way to get some more Sarah Palins.
