I'm still trying very hard to understand why a transvestite would win an award made for one gender. These are some of the things that need to be fully addressed, why it's called the best female dress award and how come a transgender was giving the award I need to make that clear anyway, congratulations to her

I'm still trying very hard to understand why a transvestite would win an award made for one gender.

Try harder.

Rikkie Valerie Kolle has made history as the first transgender woman to win Miss Netherlands.

It's the first time in the Dutch pageant's 94-year history that a trans woman has been crowned winner.

It means the 22-year-old will be the second openly trans competitor to take part in Miss Universe in December this year.

She's been speaking to BBC Newsbeat about beauty, backlash and breaking boundaries.

From the moment her name was called as the winner, Rikkie says she simply couldn't believe it.

"I was in full disbelief the moment they called my name, I was like 'oh my god, is this really happening'?" she says.

"You're living through a really intense but also energising period. And you just want to finish the great final with other contestants.

"I just enjoyed every single moment of it."

'I want to thank all the haters'
Rikkie says she dreamed of winning pageants like this as a child.

"The journey started as a super insecure little boy," she tells Newsbeat.

"And now I'm standing here as a strong and empowering and confident woman. I'm really proud of that.

"And that I always got the support around me from my family and my friends and my chosen queer family. I know a lot of people don't have that."

These things go beyond what we see.
There are powerful people and forces who will do anything possible to promote LGBTQ and other evil agenda. Most of the time they are the ones sponsoring these awards and the winners are always predestined for this purpose.
