Junior Miss Tough Chick

I'm doing my first ever watch through of Farscape and I came across this line said by John Crichton to Chiana in the episode "Through the Looking Glass": "I thought you were Junior Miss Tough Chick of the universe."

At first, I thought this was a reference to the Miss Universe beauty pageant, but then I found out there is also America's Junior Miss (now known as Distinguished Young Women). I know nothing about beauty pageants, so I'm not totally sure which it is here. - Maddox (talk) 22:18, 26 April 2023 (UTC)

I think it's just an all purpose beauty pageant reference. Various high schools and smaller communities have had their own "Junior Miss" contests for years (and it was also the title of a series of New Yorker stories which dated to 1929 and were adapted to film and radio in the 1940s). -- Andrew Emoji-droolAdminsig 22:44, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
Alright, thanks! I figured that might also be a posibility, but like I said, I'm not too familiar with the topic. - Maddox (talk) 22:51, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
