The Masters Tournament is a single annual event that is hosted by Augusta. Their choice to host this event should not have to change their charter. The Miss America Beauty Pageant is a national spectacle. Should they be forced to allow men to participate? This will never make sense to me. Why would any woman want to be a part of a men's club? This melding of the sexes is part of the erosion of the core values of this country.
