Starting next year, what you see may not necessarily be what you get in the Miss Universe Singapore beauty pageant.
The contest, which will be into its 13th year in 2013, will see a major change in the rule books, with transgender participants being allowed to take part alongside natural-born women.
The decision to open the contest to transgender people came after Jenna Talackova, a participant in this year's Miss Universe Canada, was disqualified after organisers found out that she had been born a man and had undergone sex re-assignment surgery four years before the contest.

natural-born women? Was I unnatural born? I did not hatch from an egg, neither I was brought about in a test tube!
This "natural born women" verbiage seems to be the last and fast spreading -like herpes- republican evil invention. A term to demean those who they (the republicans) do not consider natural-born. It bring us back to the scientific-proven fact that your gender identity and sexual orientation happen to naturally occur and reside on your brain, not between your legs. As such all of us so-called "transgender folks" are as natural-born and anybody else
