A
beauty contest, or
beauty pageant, is a competition between people, based largely, though not always entirely, on the
beauty of their
physical appearance. Almost invariably, competitions for men and women are separate events, and those for men are not referred to as
beauty contests except derogatorily. Those for women are more common; for an example of a male beauty contest, see
Mr. Universe. There are also beauty contests for
children; they are controversial, in particular if the term "sexy" is used and/or the children are
dressed in no more than a
swimsuit.
