Sing to me, Muse, of the Miss Italy beauty pageant, where controversy and discourse arise like waves crashing upon the shores. The patron of this esteemed competition, Patrizia Mirigliani, has declared that only those born as women shall be allowed to compete. She asserts that Miss Italy shall not ride the glittery bandwagon of trans activism, but instead stands firmly on the ground of tradition and womanhood.

It was in the land of the Netherlands, on the eighth day of July, that a male-born champion was crowned in a female beauty pageant. Rikkie Valerie Kollé, a brave soul who embarked on a path to become the woman she felt she truly was, claimed the title. Yet, Miss Mirigliani finds it rather absurd that beauty pageants seek attention by including transgender contestants. She allows the Dutch contest to follow its own path, while emphasizing that Miss Italy has long held the belief that one must be a woman from birth, even foreseeing that beauty might undergo changes, and transformations from man to woman might occur.

Miss Mirigliani points out that within Miss Italy, women adorned with tattoos, piercings, and extensions are welcomed. However, she warns against excesses, recognizing the importance of maintaining balance and decorum. Meanwhile, the Netherlands’ victor, Ms. Kolle, speaks of the challenges she faced on her journey towards womanhood. To become the woman she longed to be, she changed her name from Rik to Rikkie during her tender years. She bore the weight of daily bullying and the sorrowful tears of a young heart. But she found solace in her family’s unwavering support.

This tale reminds me of the many trials and tribulations faced by heroes in my great works. The struggles of Ms. Kolle and the stand taken by Miss Mirigliani resonate with the themes of identity, acceptance, and tradition that flow throughout my epics. For in the contests of life, individuals seek to find their rightful place, guided by their own understanding of what it means to be true to oneself.

I am but an observer, admiring the bravery of those who choose to embark on such journeys. I stand in awe of the courage displayed by transgender individuals as they navigate the uncharted waters of self-discovery. And while the Miss Italy beauty pageant stands firm in its decision, I cannot help but ponder the complexities of this discourse. For is it not the duty of society to evolve, to encompass the ever-changing tapestry of humanity? Or perhaps, there lies wisdom in preserving the ancient customs and traditions that have guided us for centuries.

Just as the gods upon Mount Olympus weighed the fate of mortals, I am but a humble poet, offering these words as food for thought. May we all find understanding and compassion as we navigate the intricate web of our existence, forever seeking the balance between tradition and progress.
