    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheerleading

    High school and college females dressing themselves up in cheerleader costumes and parading about in front of a crowd is an American idea. Cheerleading is as American as hotdogs and apple pie.

    Cheerleading is part of our leader state Americas Cultural Hegemony. 'Films' such as Bring It On help to Americanize the world and to spread American ideas and values.

    I am Australian and not American. When I was a kid there were no 'cheerleaders' at school. Rugby League is a winter sport so if young girls came to the game they would be dressed appropriately. In Australia we also do not use the American derogatory term 'jock' to insult and stereotype child or adult athletes.

    Because of the flood of US media and culture that I have been drowning in since I was born in Australia I have seen a massive amount of US tv shows and movies exploring/spreading the dynamics of the stereotypical hierarchy within US schools and colleges. In Australian schools we had no cheerleading when I was in highschool in the late 90s. Some pro-sports used cheerleaders but at least these females were adults. Now due to the Americanization of Australian society, which has been rapid in recent times, we may have a very small number of schools that promote cheerleading but not thankfully still not many at all. Young females dressing up in cheerleader costumes and dancing in front of a crowd of strangers is a problem that American society is responsible for. Why is America encouraging teenage girls to dance for strangers in skimpy costumes? Why is this acceptable for the rest of the global community? Cheerleading is part of the degenerate and low US culture.

    There seems to be little concern for the young teenage girls that are cheerleading in American highschools. It seems to me that most traditional 'feminists' could not care less about the girls that are cheerleading in America. My guess is that only a very small percentage of 'feminists' were cheerleaders in highschool. The USA claims to be our leader on Womens Social Issues even though it is Australia. It is Australia that topped a list of 128 countries for women's access to education, equal pay, childcare and anti-discrimination policies in a study done by Booz & Company. Australia to be the global leader on womens rights - not USA.

    For me it utterly absurd for Americans to suggest that their degenerate American culture is the shining light for females of the global community. American society treats females very poorly and this can be seen in their degenerate trash media that they send around the world. Nations like China are right to control and limit the amount of US media/propaganda that can be viewed in China and one of the reasons is to protect young females.

    Not only are the Americans responsible for reducing the self worth of teenage females with their 'cheerleading' but in recent times US Cultural Hegemony is using US media to spread the scourge that is American Child Beauty Pageants. I have read that parts of Ireland are banning these Child Beauty Pageants and I would like to see all nations bring in laws to make Child Beauty Pageants illegal. What the hell is wrong with Americans that they allow that kind of thing? Where are their so-called 'feminists'? On a so-called 'Slut Walk'? What the hell is wrong with America? Why on earth would any nation seek to be Americanized? How can the USA claim themselves to be a shining light on female rights with a straight face? Who are they kidding?

    In my opinion US culture is almost as bad as Japanese in relation to young females. In US media they count down until a young Kardasian sisters 18th birthday because that will be the day she becomes "legal". It is not acceptable for media/society/culture to encourage any kind of culture that borders accepting pedophile or pedophilistic feelings. US culture is degenerate and there is no genuine force working to protect the innocence of American female youth. Cheerleading is certainly degenerate and so is the American 'culture' that has produced it.

    In my opinion US media is a scourge and a danger to the female youth of the global community. Part of containing US media will involve rejecting American ideas such as cheerleading and child beauty pageants.

    Protecting young females from degenerate US culture needs to become a priority for the global community.

    Do you agree with the American idea of cheerleading? What do you feminists think? Do you agree that cheerleading should be banned? At least in highschools?

    If you do not like American culture don't wathink it or participate in it. If you don't like cheerleaders don't look at them. If everyone could ban one thing they do not like then there would be nothing that was not banned. I suggest that you just relax a bit and take a deep breath.

    Some on the left basically do want to impose Sharia law in regards to females.

    I dont. I dont think we should start letting anyone cut young girls clitoris' off but I am in favour of western teenagers being able to have vagina surgery to give them the vagina that they want. A lot of teenage girls are not happy with their vaginas and they are wanting to pay top get designer vaginas but currently the state and doctors are making them jump through hoops to get the surgery. In my opinion this is wrong and I think we do need to make it a lot easier for young ladies to get the vagina of their dreams. I am all for lowering the age of consent and allowing all females over the age of consent to not just work in places like McDonalds but also in the sex industry as escorts/call girls and sugar babies. There is just a time and place is all that I am saying. It makes sense to allow teenage girls to work as sugarbabies and escorts/call girls because it costs a lot of money to be a teenager in the west and young girls want things like designer vaginas and often the young girls parents cannot afford to pay for their daughter to get a designer vagina. If the young ladies are able to capitalize on their looks to earn the money to pay for their designer vaginas them why should the state or their parents be able to prevent them? It is restraint of trade in my opinion. I lot of Sugardaddy types would be more than happy to pay for their sugarbabies designer vagina and the young ladies parents should not be able to stand in the way of that happening. Right? Teenage girls are people not property and if we dont want to be like the Muslims with their Sharia nonsense them we must not treat teenage girls as the property of the state by preventing them from working as sugarbabies if they want to. We cannot allow a young ladies parents to treat their daughter as if she was property by allowing parents to interfere with things like the sugardaddy paying for the teenage girls designer vagina. Am I right?

    I am just starting a discussion. I liked the movie American Beauty. Were you disappointed when Kevin Spacey didnt %$%4 that chick at the end? I sure was. What was his problem? Jesus Christ. And then he gets shot by his homosexual and repressed neighbour. He should have went for it. What harm could it have done? So now she loses her virginity on prom night to some jerk highschool kid? Oh great. Thats much better for her.. I just like the truth is all and its best if we are all honest - then we get less guys like that angry and repressed homosexual neighour that shot Kevin Spacey.

    Isnt Kevin Spacey one of the guys that has visited Orgy Island?.

    I dont hate America. I like it a lot. And yeah, USA is like our Rome so I cant wait to live there. USA is the most important nation. But it is not perfect and your prostitution laws are a great example of that. I just want to make USA even better. I dont hate it. I like it.

    Little girls are now going to school wearing highly revealing outfits, including leggings as pants. Some schools attempted to enforce dress codes and are getting backlash from feminists who say, "we are not dressing sexually; you are sexualizing us and need to stop looking at us."
    They say it is sex discrimination, even though the boys don't dress that way. I'm sure I'd draw scorn from students and faculty alike if I came to school dressed the way most women do.

    There is nothing wrong with cheerleading. I was a cheerleader for several years. For the girls, it has NOTHING to do with sexuality. It is just fun. Just because some pervs want to sexualize little girls doesn't mean that the girls are thinking this way. :roll:

    Voluntarily is the keyword. Girls are not forced to be cheerleaders, they choose to do it all by themselves because they have a personal interest in dancing/cheerleading.

    American sports use professional cheerleaders that are being paid to do what they love and if you want to ban leisure activities and jobs, I would say you are the monster, not "American culture". :nod:

    I am from Sweden and here we do not have high school cheerleading or even high school sports. I sometimes wonder how well "high school films" represent reality; is the competition between cheerleaders and "popular girls/boys vs unpopular ones" really real or is it just a media construction? That kind of phenomena does not exist at all in Swedish high scools... Or perhaps it does... I was just one of the unpopular ones and therefore did not notice. :laughing:

    Cheerleading was invented to "rile up" male athletes, if you know what I mean. Most people don't know this.

    Here's why I disagree with your comment. Suppose high schools offered "pole dancing" as an extracurricular. Sure, the girls who joined are volunteering, but do you want your daughter volunteering to be a sex object? Because cheerleading is essentially that, to a lesser degree.

    So?

    I am no Puritan Victorianist and would let my daughter do anything she wanted (probably porn star and prostitute the only exceptions). Cheerleading is not at all about objectification in any way whatsoever.

    Cheerleading keeps the kids interested in school and it keeps them supervised on weekends. It is also part of our culture. The OP is much adu about nothing. Do you want to complane about Majorette costumes also? Ever school I went to had dress codes and all my kids had dress codes in their schools.

    It is, because it encourages girls to view themselves as objectified bodies. Any activity which encourages, even inadvertently or indirectly, focus on appearance is worth discouraging in our daughters. Not because it's 'naughty', or for any other similarly simplistic negative, but because they learn to depend upon appearance, and to value themselves based on appearance. If a young girl is dedicating time to something so appearance focused (as cheerleading, modelling, acting, etc) you can be fairly sure that's going to cause her at least some problems later in life. Even if just in terms of relationships - especially with men.

    We should be encouraging our daughters AWAY from preening and adornment, and towards intellectual and character worth - just as we do with our sons.

    Remember that cheerleaders are a very alien thing to the rest of the world. No idea what a Majorette is, meantime.

    Majorettes are cute girls in skimpy outfits that march in front of the band, sometimes carrying batons.

    Majorettes are dancers doing choreography with marching bands. They usually twirl batons and sometimes knives and fire. They perform usually at half time during games.

    Cheer leading gets girls involved in school activities just like the band. Not long ago girls had no sport teams in our schools.. except maybe volleyball. I would much rather have my kids involved in things school related rather than running the streets. The more kids involved the better. Not everyone is good enough at sports to make the team.

    A sports match doesn't need a marching band but it does supply entertainment at the games. It is part of the spectacle. Some people don't like the games but they do like the bands.

    My daughter was involved in various clubs, all of which demanded intellect and none of which involved skimpy outfits designed to give jocks erections.

    So let your daughter join math club. Encourage her to do theater or summer engineering camp. Don't encourage her to be a sex toy.

    We hear this same kind of talk from the taliban in Afghanistan. It's almost identical.

    `
    I was a cheerleader in high school. We specialized in choreographed, precision gymnastic routines and went to competitions. If was a lot of hard work and considering I was a single mom at the time, a lot of sacrifice. Of course everything done now a days has got commercialism written all over it so the fun just isn't there anymore.
