[quote=Anonymous]I was a cheeerleader in high school and college. It was really fun. I also ran track and cross-country in high school and college, and all of the other girls on my high school squad and many of them in college played another sport or two. I am uncomfortable with the skimpy uniforms & makeup some of the squads seem to wear now, especially for really young girls, so I would have a problem with DD being on one of those squads. The activity itself is fine, although I confess, I have had the discussion with some of my old high school friends about the sexist elements of it. As a PP mentioned, though, we did think of the games as practice for the competitions, which was the real focus. Overall, I would say it was a confidence-building, enjoyable athletic endeavor. I am now an educated, successful feminist working mom. If you think I'm trash, that's your problem.[/quote]
