Not to get all pissy, but how do you know that neither of the girls “needed” the scholarship? Because they won beauty pagents? :rolleyes:

Actually, if she has a vagina a woman can get pretty much anything she wants. Men are sluts.

PS As a former model and a university graduate I would like to say that being pretty and having brains helps but makes no difference when the railing comes off the balcony and you fall one and a half stories onto said railing, while simultaneously breaking the fall of the guy who fell off after you. 😑

I don’t want to appear pedantic here but I thought that all women had vaginas.  
Tits as well, but that’s another matter 🙂

That is Jessica Simpson on the cover of Rollingstones magazine. And yes everyone needs to be a little smart.
