Danielle Hazel, a 25-year-old mother from New York, has filed a discrimination complaint with the New York City Human Rights Commission against the Miss America and Miss World beauty pageants. The complaint, supported by prominent women's rights attorney Gloria Allred, challenges the long-standing rules that disqualify mothers from participating. Hazel argues that these rules are based on outdated stereotypes and deny mothers important business and cultural opportunities. Allred, who has successfully challenged similar rules in the past, contends that being a parent should not exclude individuals from such opportunities and that the rules are discriminatory. The complaint was announced at a press conference in Central Park, where Hazel shared her son's reaction to the rules, deeming them 'stupid' and unjust. Representatives for the pageant organizations have not yet commented on the complaint.
