Girls basketball should have exclusively, male cheerleaders.

Or cheerleading should go away and those girls should go get real jobs. Go be part of a sport that actually appreciates your skills, pays you well, and doesn't objectify you with short skirts and sexy dance moves. Or go do onlyfans if that's what you're after. Cheerleading is so pointless and outdated.

As a guy, I agree. Let's see some feats of cheerleading only an all-male cheerleading team would pull off.

Have you ever seen an all male drum corps? There's some incredible stuff that people can do. Cavaliers is a great example.

It will look like a coed squad, but with worse flyers, probably.

RoastMostToast@reddit

I’d imagine it’d be similar to gymnastics where the men vs women are similar sports but very different in terms of what they can pull off. I’d too support this

Well, since the WNBA has an overrepresentation of lesbian players, and by all accounts a similar overrepresentation of lesbian fans (21% of lesbians watch WNBA) - that might not work out the way you expect.

[-]

liamjon29@reddit

Is there something about being attracted to women that makes someone more likely to be into sport? Coz I feel like there's an underrepresentation of gay men in sport

[-]

Aware_Economics4980@reddit

I mean think about it for a minute lol.

Sports is typically like a male thing, men are better at all of them than women that’s not sexism it’s just a fact.

Is it all that surprising women that want to be “the man” in relationships are out there playing sports while gay men are typical more effeminate play sports less?

[-]

pawsncoffee@reddit

You wish men were better at all of them.

[-]

Aware_Economics4980@reddit

It’s literally not a debate man. Women can’t compete against men, that shouldn’t be controversial in the slightest. That’s why there are women’s leagues.

Keep crying little man

Aware_Economics4980@reddit

Oh god lmao.

There is no world women beat men at sports, it’s biological. Raising women the exact same men doesn’t change their bone structure or muscle distribution. You are aware women pro athletes can’t even like kind of compete with men pro athletes right?

You honestly think if Caitlyn Clark was raised different she’d just be able to go out and school LeBron James? Come on man

Get a grip

It’s not all sports. Women are better at ultra distance swimming.

It’s tough watching someone who’s on your same side argue so terribly against a position you disagree with 😔

heartbreaking: someone you "agree" with just forsook all rational reasoning in favor of dogmatic in-group buzz words

[-]

ClerkNo8932@reddit

So tell me why there are more black athletes in NBA than Asian or White men? Is it racism?

[-]

Not-a-babygoat@reddit

It's biological for the most part.

Yes Lesbian women are more masculine at birth than hetero women, and gay men are more feminine at birth than hetero men at birth.
However hormones change throughout our whole lives and especially during puberty (I for example went from a very feminine man to a healthier man during puberty, and I remained a homosexual)
So I think your hypothesis on a lesbian's psyche, where they try to take the role of man in a couple, might be correct.

hiptobecubic@reddit

This is such an ignorant, sexist characterization of lesbianism that it's legitimately hard to tell whether you're trolling or not.

21% of lesbians watch WNBA, that's a shocking statistic. Literally 1 in 5 lesbians you talk to watch NBA

[-]

EarthTrash@reddit

So, 3/5ths of lesbians don't watch professional basketball at all?

[-]

Vacuousbard@reddit

They also watch basketball, just not the WNBA

[-]

EarthTrash@reddit

I think the comment I replied to has a typo. Between WNBA and NBA, what's left? College? The Harlem Globe Trotters?

[-]

kittyconetail@reddit

It does have a typo. Though I'm not sure where you got the 3/5 stat from. Both comments up thread are referencing the same statistic of 1/5 so yours should be 4/5.

The stat doesn't tell us what they do or don't watch besides WNBA. Only how many watch WNBA. So, we don't know how many watch NBA, college, nothing, or whatever else. A lot don't like sports at all so the other person's blanket statement is wrong.

For me, I watch men's college but not NBA. NBA gameplay is comparatively boring, to be honest. That sentiment seems to upset people but it is what it is.

Male cheerleaders and lower the rim

Boys basketball has mixed genders for cheerleading

hookem98@reddit

Exclusively, male cheerleaders you say? Can I introduce you to Texas ATM University? I'll even throw in a spirit group not affiliated with any branch of the US military, but does like to wear uniforms and cosplay like they're in the army to sweeten the deal.

As a bisexual female former cheerleader, women’s basketball was very important to me and a lot of my queer teammates, please don’t take it away from us

GrasshoperPoof@reddit

Coed cheer squads have a way easier time getting the female cheerleaders. An all male squad would absolutely have problems recruiting

[-]

pinkietoe@reddit

To recruit female cheerleaders?

[-]

-_ellipsis_-@reddit

I think a major break from tradition is always an answer when it comes to things like this. Since "cheerleader" has certain connotations, rebrand it into a "hype team". Instead of pom poms and the like, get a team of hip hop and break dancers to throw their shit down.

[-]

LemmiwinksQQ@reddit

Ooh, imagine a capoeira hype team.

MetadonDrelle@reddit

I did that for high school once.

It was like a freaky Friday situation for spirit week.

Girls would go full contact flag football while guys would grab pom poms and learn routines.

Was I a great cheerleader. Hell no. Did I manage to see the cheerleaders outside of any other thing beyond this. No.

I did get to see the cheer routine we were told to do and I was pyramid base.

and i did for a fleeting moment chuck someone in the air and catch them. That was HORRIFYING dear GOD.

I didn't wear a skirt or any cheergear. I wore a stained shirt from lunch and sweats. With huge ruby red LeBron 12's.... Our school colors were purple and silver.

But yeah pretty fun as I remember the sequence of running out screaming like maniacs while girls were full on piledriving eachother like gladiators. That was high school. And boy was it fun at times.

2018 was ight.
