As a transgender myself , it is important to know your limit and respect boundaries. Woman is a woman, man is a man, transwoman is a transwoman, cat is a cat. There should be a clear line between a woman and transwoman. Transgenders should stay in trans pageants or sports . The world needs order and should be based on science and facts. No amount of surgeries and hormones will make us equall to biological women. Lets just be happy and settle being a different kind. Not a man , not a woman but a trans and that we need to respect straight peoples spaces .
Like I said in another comment: this is your belief. For you, being seen as different might be very comfortable. For others, it is not. And no one said trans woman are the same as cisgender women. The trajectory and path in life is very different. But, in this competition, the rules state they are equal. So no need to bring in whatever science you refer to. It's not relevant in this situation. It's just a decision of an organization. Don't like it? Don't watch it. And to respect straight people spaces: Respectful LGBTQIA+ around the world are killed and discriminated against on a daily basis. We have a right to exist in any way or shape we choose, even if it makes other people uncomfortable. The order of the world has been forever changing, and what we know today will change to. I wish you the openness of mind to not limit others because you yourself choose that certain limitations should be applicable to you.
@@angelovanveen601okayyyy buddy (or woman) you said it yourself how one sees themselves may not match with how others see you...just bc YOU feel different doesnt mean the whole world has to follow your delusion..
finally a sane person that accepts being trans is NOT the same as being a woman...if trans folks had this logic, I dont think there would be so much pushback...its the ones wanting to change biology that causes a huge stir and imo, so much anti tran support
@@lotusgrl444 please read again: I said nothing what you quoted. And I'm not asking the world to follow anything. I'm just requesting to let people be without imposing their own beliefs. There's enough division and hatred in the world. Why aim your negativity at people who have done you no harm just because you would not live your life the way they choose to? There are bigger fish to fry, and denying others the decency to live their life as they choose to is just sad.
@@princexyz1663 No, it isn't. It's not the same as saying skinny women, tall women, white women, etc. The prerequisite for being a trans woman is being a biological male. That is a whole other sex category. The only thing that would set them apart from other men is the declaration - the statement that they actually identify as women. And "identifying as a woman" is a very debatable concept. It relies on a spiritual belief that there is such a thing as a female soul in a male body. Women are not female souls in female bodies. They are just female. We are our bodies. Everything else is an ideology you can be believe in, or not believe in, and most of us don't.
Regardless of opinion, people can be classy and respectful in the comments. Shows your character when you comment on this video with hate. Be respectful people
She is a wonderful speaker who is self aware about what’s happening ❤❤❤this is the reason behind her placement in top 20. She truly deserves it she represented all forms of human.
TBH, her answer to "what is the essence of being a woman?" can be applicable for general gender/sex ,not really to specific gender that been stated "being a woman"
Look , I respect her as a human being but I still cannot reconcile authenticity when you change your physical appearance and join an original biological woman's competition. Still, Goodluck to "her".
That's why it's called Miss Universe.. woman of any background. If we can invite women from other planets that would be amazing because we are not the only species of the universe right? 😅 It might hurt religion like Christians and Muslims but we have to accept that there're so many religions in the world and we should respect it so that we can have peace. We should not also force what we believe in to others so that we could also have peace in our hearts and 😢minds. We have to accept that we are individual people. We have different beliefs.
There is no rule that states this pageant is for "original biological women". If that bothers you, turn to the organization, but bullying or belittling the contestant might show your true intention here. Also, if you think changing your physical appearance means you are not authentic, then what do we do with the "original biological women" competing who have dyed their hair, had breast augmentation, have Botox and fillers, wear hair pieces and wear makeup? That's changing one's appearance too. It would leave no "authentic" competitors ;). Change is uncomfortable if it forces you to change your way of thinking. I wish you a broader perspective with more room for diversity. Enjoy the pageant!
@@angelovanveen601it says women not transwomen. There's a clear line between a woman and transwoman. I myself is a transwoman but it is important to know our boundaries. Trans should be in trans pageants.
@@nikita5662the organization has decided that trans women, like all other women, are eligible and welcome to compete. It's great that you feel like there should be a line, where there in reality is not one. If you want to limit your reality based on your personal beliefs, that's ok. It's not ok to limit others because of your beliefs or opinions. The organization created this room and inclusivity, don't scold the contestants for using that room, and playing by the rules. I wish Marina all the luck. She deserves it.
Im a portuguese man and i feel ashmed for a man representing portugal, theres a lote of interesting and beautiful real woman in my country, he must compet in trans universe not in womans universe, he born biologicaly a man so its a man, please respect woman kind, to me this is a crime
A crime is all what you said. I am Portuguese myself and I support her. She’s smart, she’s obviously beautiful and if the Miss Universe Organization permits it, then it is perfectly fine with me. A única vergonha aqui és tu.
No doubt she has all the beauty and class and deserves to compete on equal levels! Women deserve to also compete on equal and fair levels, same with competing in women sports not fair😮
I am Portuguese and Salvadorena. I have gorgeous, classy, educated female cousins in Portugal that would better represent Portuguese WOMEN. This person is not a woman. Although this person may be a good person, kind person, etc. etc. etc., the requirement is to be a woman. Transpeople are welcome to make their own trans competitions. No one would have an issue with that. Respect women and stay out of our spaces and competitions. I don't even like Miss Universe and beauty pageants but rules and science are just that. Respect them. El Salvador is doing such wonderful things right now and I am so happy and proud but this is NOT one of them. Women will not be hoodwinked or erased.
As a Portuguese woman I feel totally disgusted with men stealing women's titles. I thought there was more common sense, but sense is not common any more.
Luis..... Why Miss Universe and Miss World Pagents are including Married women, Trans people, and all that in such beauty pageants..??.. (BTW, I am from the community ) but still don't like the fact it's including everything in one platform.... We have well respected and recognised separate beauty pageant for LGBT and Married women... Miss Trans International, Mrs World.. Mrs International and all other.... What's the logic behind showing how loving and inclusive they are ??? Let's Keep everything separate...and that's the beauty of each competitions and it's representatives/ contestants... That's the thrill of the each competition.... .. Because they do have separate competitions for all segments of the World... Otherwise then stop and cancel all other pagents and make only one big pagent... Miss Universe....
She has cute small ears and a really nice face. I think the Miss Universe organization did a good job pairing her up with Miss Spain, I wonder if they did the same with all the other women... Best of luck to her.
I'm glad we're finally evolving to the point we're all equals with equal opportunity without gender boundaries. We need to make every competition open to any gender and nongender. Every sport and every competition will be open to anyone. We'll finally get rid of men's and women's sports and everyone will be happy. The military too. If we have a draft to send soldiers to the front lines, let's not discriminate!
Finally men can dominate this competition too, just like they do every other competition. 😂😂😂. Women are being replaced by men all the time and the feminists are not speaking up. 😂😂
If ones story from childhood was once a boy then HE cannot include that in his story. His story starts when HE became a trans with all the plastic surgeries... Without it HE will look like a MAN forever. 😢😢😢
Kung ganito nlang manyayari sa Mix Universe.. Pasalihin din nila ang ibang trans, naku kung sa ganda at talino di papatalo ang trans na pinay... Babaeng babae pa kesa sa kanya.😅

It's not hate if you believe that a man should not take a woman's place in a competition. This is a man, in a women's competition. Period
Agree. A true woman is not a man. Not born man. Period.@@SethHainly
Seems like you really hate women
She’s eloquent, spontaneous and really expresses good english command.
Exactly what I wanted to say ! She can be in the Top 20 with a good Prelim performance because her interview might be stunning !
And a man, don’t forget that 😂
Not interesting story, it’s a sick story. So many beautiful deserving women in Portugal.
Hater
Doesn't seem like a hater. Its reality, this is a man in a competition for women. Why take away from REAL women? @msalbert5617
