Why Is There a War on Cheerleaders?

The ‘60s. That’s what happened.

Anything goes, including communism.

The ‘60s ruined EVERYTHING. I mean that. There’s almost NO topic I can’t find that the ‘60s wasn’t the start of downfall. Really. Things that have nothing to do with politics, but maybe with philosophy, changed for the worse.

That strawman nonsense is already addressed.

They're all "legitimate" sports. They just aren't very exciting to watch.

Rule #1: The more exciting a sport is, the harder it is to translate it to TV.

Rule #2: If you're having a conversation about a particular sport and a thread about cheerleaders generates 200+ replies, I'd say the sport is really dull. You wouldn't get 200+ replies on a thread about the greatest quarterback of all time.

Hardly. NFL cheerleaders show no more skin that most women at the beach, and less that those in g-string bikinis. I suppose you’re going to go all religious police on them too?

[SoCal Pubbie]

Wow that was TOO easy!

Half the country is normal.

Other half lost its mind.
I am talking real mass madness.

I often reference Thomas Szasz who wrote "The Myth of Mental Illness". I believe he accepted that some problems (Major Depression, Schizophrenia, etc) were chemical in nature and could be treated medically. But he felt that most "mental illness" was just thought patterns that some people had which other people found objectionable.

On the one hand (I suppose) if you think guns are OK, abortion is murder, and God is real, then you are delusional and dangerous (according to half the country).
On the other hand, if you think you are a victim (in everything), white men are out to get you, sex is changeable, and sex between men and women is an act of violence, then you have lost your mind (according to the other half of the country).

Eventually, the country needs to decide who has adopted a wrong thought pattern, and who is thinking is a way which will create a viable future.

Well — I sure walked into that one. LOL.

[SoCal Pubbie]

I’ll have to give you credit. You’re a good sport.

[Alberta's Child]

I try to be a good sport. LOL.

Life is too short to agonize over internet discussions. :-)

My toxic masculinity still adores scantily attired NFL chearleaders.
