It’s really about whether the school can decide or whether that freedom is taken away from them and handed to the courts. There is no constitutional right to be a cheerleader at your school.

“Woo hoo Mom, buy your little wussy some elton john CDs.”

The guys at our school who were cheerleaders and in gymnastics were among the most sought-after by the girls. One was the top football player in the school. Absolutely none were wussies or gay, and you wouldn’t have wanted to tangle with him.

Maybe he had a few too many tangles with cheerleaders and calling them names on a message board is the ony way to get back?

Bad attitude. Let's hit the man haters where it hurts.

And BTW, male college cheerleaders get as much action from the female cheerleaders as the football players do.

Man......that is beautiful! I think the cheerleaders have won 15 national titles the past 20 years, talk about a dynasty!

Go Big Blue!

I know nothing!

But I learned everything I know from "The Huckster".

We never had this conversation.

From the article:

Bobby works with coach Jen Brewer at a gym called Becca's Fliptown, something he's been doing since he was about 5. He's been successful, too, winning trophies for gymnastics and cheerleading.

Maybe he just tried out because it was something that he was very good at.

Hey, I'm not particularly crushed that my son isn't a cheerleader in grade school, but I'm not that little boy's parents. If he was good enough, he should have made the squad.

As a teacher, what peeves me is that now all the teachers at the school have to take some BS sensitivity training because of an issue they had nothing to do with.

When I was a young man I aways wanted to be “in” the senior cheer-leading team. One at a time. :^)

Hey, no argument. Not once have I questioned that.

It’s obvious you have no idea whatsoever. The main male cheerleader at my high school remains married to the absolute hottest girl in the school. He was also the top male gymnast.

Not talking about high school/college...we’re discussing a 10 yr. old. Now he won’t try out at 13. Sounds like a wuss to me.

I’ve seen them at one of the biggest D-1 colleges. They are certainly muscular, but you need to have a little more than that to “kick butt”.
