Beauty pageant for female prison wardens in Russia slammed for objectifying women

A beauty pageant for female Russian prison officers has been blasted by activists for 'objectifying women'.
The Miss Penal System Contest 2021 sees female guards from across Russia submit a short video in which they are expected to dance, glamourise their profession, advertise the beauty of their region, and pretend they are a museum object.
They also submit photographs of themselves in their prison uniform and in evening wear that will be judged by a mostly-male panel as well as in an online poll before a winner is picked.
Nastya Krasilnikova, a women's rights campaigner, branded the event 'sad' and said it encourages people to see the contestants as mere objects - 'that can be admired, that can be lusted after, but that are not interesting in any other way.'
