For the first time, an openly transgender woman has announced her intention to compete for the Miss Georgia USA title.
The article from KNOE 8 News discusses how Kasey Stewart, a 22-year-old from Georgia, is set to become the first transgender woman to compete in the Miss Georgia USA pageant. Stewart, who has been involved in pageantry since she was 16, expressed her excitement about the opportunity to represent her community and inspire others. She has been preparing for the competition by focusing on her physical fitness, mental health, and community service, particularly through her work with the Miss Monroe organization. The Miss Georgia USA pageant, which is part of the Miss USA and Miss Universe systems, has recently updated its eligibility rules to be more inclusive, allowing Stewart to participate. Her participation marks a significant moment for transgender visibility and acceptance in traditional beauty pageants.
