The Texas state legislature set aside small matters like the implementation of the death penalty last month to consider a far more arcane ritual: cheerleading. The state's cheerleaders, it seems, have become indistinguishable from exotic dancers—or so says a bill submitted by Al Edwards, a representative from Houston. Edwards' legislation would divert money from high schools that allow cheerleaders to perform overly suggestive lunges and inside-hitch pyramids. "It's just too sexually oriented, you know, the way they're shaking their behinds and going on, breaking it down," Edwards explained.

They should install poles about every five yards along the sidelines and allow the cheerleaders to practice their future trade as it seems that is what their choregraphers are training them for.

Now, what do you really FEEL about their plight?
This deep division that is splitting them asunder?
lol
Well, George W. Bush was a cheerleader in college, so obviously you don't have to be gay.
That guy probably joined to be able to meet chicks.
Didn't they solve the cheerleader problem in Iowa by installing artificial turf...
Yeah, from National legislators grand-standing about overpaid "athletes" taking steroids (most looked they were the 98lb weaklings of their youth) to State legislators re-visiting their highschool hang-ups over cheerleaders (women wanted to be one, men wanted to date one). A waste of taxpayer money.
They're JUST noticing?
A: Send them all directly to me for a more direct examination. I'll let you know what I find in a few months.

I admit, I looked. TOO funny!
OK, who will be the first to post a photo of everyone's favorite Texas Cheerleader, a gal named Debbie.
Every cheerleading squad is like a sitcom. You have the intellectual, the do-gooder, the innocent, and the one of questionable character, or multiples thereof. All of them want to perform in front of others....that tells you something.
Maybe they're not that innocent.
I'm so glad the State Legislature saw fit to deal with this (heaven forbid local school districts were left to it), but really, shouldn't this be a federal issue?
I will submit a thourough report in a couple years..However, I will need the cheerleaders (female only, thank you) in two to three girl crews at a time.
That is all..
