The Argentine town of Chivilcoy has banned all beauty pageants, saying they were racist and supported violence against women.
It said they encouraged an obsession with physical beauty and illnesses like bulimia and anorexia.
The town’s council said that from now on Chivilcoy’s festivities and anniversaries would be celebrated by recognising the achievements of young people.
They said the contests will be replaced with carnival mask competitions and prizes for volunteering.
