Reminiscent of the banker’s offer in the popular television game show, “Deal or No Deal,” pageant fans have been curiously asking whether or not the participation of transgender women in national beauty competitions will finally be a done deal. As the opening of the 2021 pageant season is expected in the coming weeks and months (the crownings that we have witnessed so far this year were mostly meant for the year 2020, staged belatedly because of the COVID19 pandemic), and with other countries already accepting participation from the sector, pundits are waiting to see if the Philippines is now ready to join in the bandwagon.
