University of Washington removes cheerleader infographic after outcry
FOX News ^ | April 28, 2016

Posted on 04/28/2016 7:20:19 AM PDT by ConservativeStatement

The University of Washington removed an infographic Tuesday that gave prospective cheerleaders tips on how to do their hair and makeup for tryouts after strong social media backlash.

The graphic advised women to wear their hair “straight or curled” along with “false eyelashes” and “flattering eye shadow.” It discouraged women from wearing “distracting fingernail polish” or “tops that cover the midriff.”

The Seattle Times reported the advice along with a photo of a white woman in blond hair posing in a black sports bra was posted on the cheerleading team’s Facebook page. The post was removed before 9 a.m. Tuesday.

"White woman in blond hair..."

That is the real problem. Probably has evil blue eyes, too.

Unattractive, un-athletic feminist lesbians were really upset, I’m sure.

Not to be confused with Washington University where a “shoot ‘em up” occurred this week.

Did the media say that Wash-U is just up the (whitey) road from Ferguson?

A lot of those lumpy lesbians were likely upset at the advice to not wear tops that cover the midriff. They think that’s objectifying the ladies. I guess they don’t think their own muffin tops don’t count.

we see it in TV ads. The symbols of beauty and success and the objects of incompetence is what I associate with Brainwashing 101.

Oh, but it was worse than just that. That infographic was in English only! And that's an obvious microaggression against anyone who comes to America and decides not to learn English.

Her sign is correct, with the addition of the word "Some" before "Women."

And an arrow pointing upward toward herself.

To be PC and inclusive, the info graphic should have included cheerleaders who use hair weaves and activator.

Link has the video and a really pretty girl.
Some people just can’t handle the truth. Pretty girls make pretty good cheerleaders.
Fat ugly lesbo types probably not so much

Advice for University of Washington Cheerleading tryouts:

1) Do not shave your armpits or your legs. Or your moustache.
2) Do not wear foundation garments of any kind. Cellulite is sexy.
3) If your breasts droop to your waistline, go straight to the office to pick up your uniform.
4) Display a hate-filled, misanthropic personality. Crowds draw inspiration from spitting grudge-holders.
5) Slip into that baggy, pizza-stained sweatshirt and those plaid pants that are at least two sizes too small.
6) Wear sensible shoes. Nothing says "sexy" like ballet flats or Converse tennies.
7) Get as many parts of your body pierced between now and the tryouts as possible. Including unmentionables (you never know WHO will see those ...)
8) Get hideous tattoos of things like panthers and snakes and idiotic Chinese pictograms you can't understand. The more visible, the better. Make sure it's nothing tasteful.
9) Instead of cheering, make strident political statements about "partriarchy" and "objectified women." Memorize a few passages from the "Vagina Monologues" for backup.
10) Arrive in a roached-out Prius with a Hillary! bumper sticker, even if you're a Bernie or Karl Marx supporter.
11) Instead of pom-poms, bring a couple of babies impaled on sticks.
