Is anyone else annoyed that the women had to choose between a beauty pagent and basically an interior design job? Why do the men get these big huge real estate projects? It just seems a little strange to me.

Re: Apprentice viewers
Yes I do!! Sounds like Trump thinks all his woman should look pretty and not worry their little heads about big projects like building a building!!

Re: Apprentice viewers
I see no harm in it.
Bill did get a huge job...but Kelly has his hands in many different aspects of the trump organization....he doesn't have 1 big project like Bill.
The Pagent would have required alot of work. From my understanding there are many aspects of planning a pagent...besides the actaul event.
As far as the Redesign is concerned....Im sure that there is alot to it that we don't realize...just think how much work is involved in just redoing one room in your house.
and on a side note...I'm pretty sure that most of the male contestants would have loved the oppurtunity to run the pagent

Re: Apprentice viewers
I was thinking the same thing! The esate is a big job but it does not come close to the projects that Bill and Kelly have.

Re: Apprentice viewers
Althought I missed it, I definitely think it's absoultely sexist.
If there had been a woman against a guy, he would have picked a man again.

Re: Apprentice viewers
please keep in mind that if Trump wanted another man...he would have fired the woman and kept the men. It after all was him who made all final decisions.

Re: Apprentice viewers
Yeah that really annnoyed me.
It also annoyed me that he basically told Kendra he hates crying..
that bothers me- I know you have to keep emotion in check, but I also think there is a time & a place for it in management.

Re: Apprentice viewers
I totally agree --- they seemed like "lesser" jobs, although I am sure they require lots and lots of hard work, talent and knowledge.

YES! I thought it was just me. The men get these huge jobs supervising construction of these HUGE and amazing buildings and the women had to choose between two jobs that were MUCH simpler. The beauty pageant option was a complete joke and I actually lost a bit of respect (like I had much left anyway ) for Tana when she chose it.

While I agree with this. He's been getting a LOT of crap for not choosing women in the past and has been called sexist for a long time. He may have just went with women to change everybody's opinions about him.

I have to disagree, I don't think this was a huge joke...anyone who has ever had to deal in international business can you tell you this.
It Takes A LOT to coordinate an event like this.

I'm not saying it was a joke because it wasn't a lot of work. I'm saying it was a joke because it's so stereotypical to give the beauty pageant option to women. They never would have had that as an option if a man had been up there.
ETA: I should've worded it better

That's kind of how I feel about it. I'm not saying that the pagent is not hard work but I wonder if it was offered because women were in the finale. I just don't know that the choices would have been the same if it were 2 men.

Re: Apprentice viewers
I honestly didn't think about it until I read this. I think it is a bit sexist. His comment to Kendra about crying was uncalled for. She had an great comeback!
He never said anything to Chris who blubbered when he got fired.
