Sorry, should have added some animated smiley faces as it was posted as humorous.

Can it still be sexist if they have a men's champion?

That's certainly not the sexiest. My girlfriend has a sexier rear by leaps and bounds.
Calling this sexist would be the misapplication of the word.

This competition does not "promote stereotyping of social roles based on gender", especially since a male category was also included.

Now if it was the Hottest Barefoot & Pregnant Mother competition....


On principle I wouldn't shoot this, but I respect the competitors and the competition.
