Swe Zin Htet speaks out on being the first openly gay Miss Universe contestant: 'A majority of people in Myanmar are not accepting of this'
Swe Zin Htet, the reigning Miss Myanmar, is making major progress for both her country and for the Miss Universe pageant as a whole. The 21-year-old told People — who will compete in Miss Universe on Sunday night — that she wants to use her platform to help LGBTQ people in her home country, which is also referred to as Burma.
As People noted, Htet recently came out during an interview with beauty blog Missosology."I believe that not all countries allow same-sex marriage. I want the world to accept the LGBTQ+ community and their right to choose their own path and pursuit of happiness," she told the blog."Love is the most powerful thing and people fall in love with human beings, not gender."
