\"\"La canadiense Jenna Talackova no podr\u00e1 participar en el concurso de belleza de Miss Universo por haber nacido como hombre.<\/p>\n

Talackova, de 23 a\u00f1os, fue descalificada del certamen despu\u00e9s de que se descubriera que se hab\u00eda sometido a cirug\u00eda para cambiar de sexo, inform\u00f3 la cadena canadiense CTV.<\/p>\n

Denis D\u00e1vila, director de Miss Universo Canad\u00e1, asegur\u00f3 que consideran a la concursante \u201cuna chica real\u201d pero que las reglas del concurso estipulan que las participantes deben ser \u201cmujeres nacidas de manera natural\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo cumple los requisitos para competir\u201d, ha se\u00f1alado en un comunicado desde Miss Universo Canad\u00e1. \u201cRespetamos sus metas, su determinaci\u00f3n y le deseamos lo mejor\u201c, se puede leer en el texto enviado por la organizaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

En una entrevista en 2010, Talackova explic\u00f3 que supo que era una mujer a los 4 a\u00f1os y empez\u00f3 una terapia hormonal a los 14 a\u00f1os. A los 19 a\u00f1os se someti\u00f3 a la cirug\u00eda para cambiar su sexo.<\/p>\n

Talackova ha asegurado a CTV que no va a \u201cdarse por vencida\u201d y est\u00e1 consultando con un abogado qu\u00e9 acciones puede tomar. Por el momento, Miss Universo Canad\u00e1 ha retirado todas las fotos de su p\u00e1gina web y ha sido reemplazada por otra concursante.<\/p>\n

*Nota de Los Angeles Times
\nJenna Talackova out of Miss Universe Canada for being transgender<\/p>\n

As far as Miss Universe Canada is concerned, it seems the \u00abMiss\u00bb part of the competition has to start at birth \u2014 particularly for ousted contestant Jenna Talackova, who was born male and who said she self-identified as female at age 4 and underwent gender reassignment surgery at 19.<\/p>\n

\u00abJenna Talackova from Vancouver, British Columbia, will not compete in the 2012 Miss Universe Canada competition because she did not meet the requirements to compete despite having stated otherwise on her entry form,\u00bb the pageant organization said Friday in a statement. \u00abWe do, however, respect her goals, determination and wish her the best.\u00bb<\/p>\n

Miss Universe Canada, which is owned by Donald Trump and feeds its winner into the Miss Universe pageant, selected Talackova to be one of its 65 finalists for the 2012 competition, which will see its crown awarded May 19 in Toronto. Eligibility requirements for various feeders into the Miss Universe system indicate that a contestant must be female and never have been married or pregnant. The rules for Miss California, which feeds into Miss USA and then into Miss Universe, include the broad requirement that contestants \u00abmust be of good health and moral character.\u00bb<\/p>\n

Talackova, 23, declined to be interviewed last week by a Canadian news outlet, saying she first had to consult with her lawyer. However, on her now-private Twitter account, she reportedly wrote, \u00abI’m disqualified, however I’m not giving up. I’m not going to just let them disqualify me over discrimination.\u00bb<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
