[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter is great at it. I feel silly even typing this out, but my older daughter was saying that "everyone knows" that the girls who play volleyball are "mean girls." I mostly rolled my eyes but a friend in another area said it's the same in their area. Is that really true?[/quote] It kind of is, not to say that all the girls on a team are mean girls, but just that mean girls gravitate toward it, much like cheer. Look at the outfits for volleyball and cheer compared to other girls' sports (except swim) and you will see why it attracts a certain type. Other girls' sports do not have such sexualized outfits. Most of what makes a "mean girl" mean is a desire to fight over the attention of boys.[/quote] That’s interesting. At our school volleyball is full of very competitive popular mean girls while cheer is more for less competitive nicer girls who have backgrounds in dance or gymnastics.[/quote]
