The Miss America Organization and a related operation, the Miss Florida Scholarship Program, have been accused of failing to live up to an oral contract, misstating science and ignoring state law in their pro-LGBT ideology.
The dispute erupted because the organizations entered into an oral agreement with Kayleigh Bush when she won the Miss North Florida title, “where there had been no mention or public-facing materials put forth by the organization indicating they subscribed to this ‘false’ definition of ‘female,’” then submitted a paper contract for her to sign that violates her faith and defies science and the law.
In fact, according to the science, being male or female is embedded in the human body to the DNA level, and does not change.
The report is according to Liberty Counsel, which twice has asked the organizations to alter their contract, and twice has been refused.
Mat Staver, Liberty Counsel chief, said, “We commend Kayleigh Bush for taking a stand and refusing to sign the Miss America Organization’s contract that is infused with false gender ideology. A contract that defines ‘female’ to include boys 14-18 who have been medically castrated is an abandonment of reality and an endorsement of harming children. Kayleigh Bush should have her crown restored and these types of reprehensible contracts must be stopped.”
The pageant corporations were told by Liberty Counsel, “Miss Florida, Inc. is in apparent breach of its oral agreement with [Bush], over terms that are void under Florida law and public policy.”
The letter states the MAO contract “contradicts Florida’s legal definition of ‘sex’, which classifies people as ‘either male or female’ based on the human body’s ‘specific reproductive role,’ including ‘sex chromosomes, naturally occurring sex hormones, and internal and external genitalia present at birth.’”
Further, Liberty Counsel explained, the contract’s definition of “female” “ignores current, enforceable Florida law prohibiting sterilization and castration of minors under the guise of ‘sex-reassignment prescriptions or procedures.’”
“A contract which violates a provision of the Florida Constitution or a Florida statute is void and illegal, and will not be enforced in Florida courts,” the legal team told the corporations.
The report notes Attorney General Pam Bondi released only days ago a “scathing memorandum” criticizing the “‘barbaric practice’ of chemically castrating and surgically mutilating children.”
That aligns with President Donald Trump’s January executive order that withdraws all federal funding for puberty blockers, hormones, or irreversible mutilating surgeries for minors, and directs rigorous enforcement of all laws to protect children from these destructive and life-altering procedures, the report said.
Transgender ideologies are “junk science,” Bondi confirmed.
Confronted with the transgender ideology is a pageant contract, which wildly insists that “castrated males” are, in fact, “females,” Bush refused to sign, and the corporations then stripped her of her title.
In fact, “The contract requires female beauty candidates to agree to compete against biological males – who have been subjected to medical mutilation as minor boys – and agree that these mutilated males are ‘female,’” the report said.
The legal team also pointed out such requirements were not in the oral agreement, and a pageant participant “would not expect to be presented with an overtly false definition of ‘female’ after otherwise performing all other conditions to the oral agreement.”
