I know a guy who was a cheerleader in college. He said it led to a lot of "dates." Considering the ratio, I'm not surprised. He was one of two males on a squad of a lot of ladies.
That being said, having male cheerleaders does not make what Dan Snyder did OK.
College is a whole different deal. Guys holding girls overhead by their crotch, etc.
Big difference from grabbing some poms poms and leg kicks. Yuge difference!
They made a comedy movie about this. They're essentially frat boys.
With that said, Robin Williams did a halftime show with the Denver Broncos cheerleaders
in his heyday. It was hilarious to see because he was so hairy. Also, a comedian making
fun of the idea of male pro cheerleaders.
