Stop the Stereotyping of Cheerleaders
Saturday September 5, 2009
Airheads, ditzy, dumb blondes, snobs, and the list goes on... cheerleaders have heard enough. If you've ever cheered (and even if you haven't) chances are you've probably heard them all. And those are just a few of the typical comments made about cheerleaders. Why can't an activity that is so full of hard work, determination and dedication get the respect it deserves?

That’s so true! Before I became a cheerleader, I used that stereotype! I still wanted to be a cheerleader anyways, but i’d think of them that way — ditzy, blonde, super-skinny, snobby, popular…it’s awful the way people treat others. I want the taunting to stop.
tht is so true finally someone is saying somethin
I think that over time as more and more people begin to appreciate cheerleading as a sport, which it most certainly is, then attitudes and stereotypes will gradually change. Most high school and all star cheerleaders are athletic, determined, focused, dedicated and smart.
