A dude pretending to be a woman has won the Miss Portugal beauty pageant for the first time and will compete with another transgender woman for the Miss Universe title in El Salvador, Portuguese media reported Friday.
Marina Machete, a 28-year-old flight attendant, was awarded the Miss Portugal title on Thursday in Borba, in the southeastern Evora region.
"Proud to be the first trans woman to compete for the title of Miss Universe Portugal," she wrote on social media before winning the title.
