Rikkie Valerie Kolle, the first transgender woman to be crowed Miss Netherlands, once saw her success in the pageant as a symbol of her nation's openness. Then she was bombarded with hate online.
The reaction should be questioning the purpose of the pageant if they’re going to be changing the rules just to make a statement. These contestants aren’t props, they’re real people who deserve to all have an equal shot.
To the absolute surprise of… no one.
She’s also really not that pretty compared to the other. She won because she’s Trans. I think most people get that
What I don’t get is why people are getting angry at her… if anything, they should be threatening the organizers and the judges?
Exactly, she did absolutely nothing wrong.

Yup, either they’re bigoted because they didn’t let her compete, or they’re bigoted because she didn’t win. It’s stupid that it’s like this.
