Love this!
Swe Zin Htet may not have been crowned Miss Universe at this weekend’s pageant in Atlanta, but she’s hoping to use her platform to make a global impact regardless.
The 21-year-old, who hails from Myanmar (formerly Burma), is the competition’s first contestant to publicly identify as a lesbian in its 67-year history. Htet first opened up about her sexuality in an interview with the beauty blog Missosology last month.
“I want the world to accept the LGBTQ+ community and their right to choose their own path and pursuit of happiness,” she told Missosology. “Love is the most powerful thing and people fall in love with human beings, not gender. We should always have the freedom of choice and promote equality.”
Paula Shugart, president of The Miss Universe Organization, told People the group was “honored to give a platform to strong, inspirational women” like Htet. “Miss Universe will always champion women to be proud of who they are,” Shugart said.
