Teenage Cheerleader Outfits

Me and my boys went to a local pizza shop after an active couple hours at the park. Also there was a local high school cheer team.

I don’t normally take any note of teenage girls, (other than to roll my eyes at their silliness), but the first thing I noticed about these girls stunned me. They were in their cheerleader outfits, and well, there wasn’t much to the outfits. They were damn near exposing their butts in public.

Take a look at the pics to the right. Their skirts barely, just barely, cover their butts and lady bits. I mean, if one of the girls leans over just a bit at the pizza table, she flashes her undies at everyone around.

Now, I’m far from being an old prude. I’m not using my old man voice, “Damn kids, nowadays, ain’t got no modesty.” I know teenagers will get away with whatever they can. Teenage girls wear short skirts to get attention from teenage boys. This is not a case of me being surprised by teenagers trying to be eye-catching or shocking.

My reaction is not really so much about the teenage girls themselves — my shock is at the parents, cheer coach, and school leaders.

These girls are not college aged. These girls are in high school — around 16 to 17 years old. They are still considered minors by law and culture.

Yet their parents, their coach, and their school leaders accept these uniforms? You know an adult had to pick them out and purchase them. Their mothers and fathers have to be okay with these uniforms.

The adult authorities around them apparently don’t have a problem with these skirts that are so short, when the girl sits down, she’s actually sitting on bare butt.

Really. Who picked out these uniforms? Who measured them? Who ordered them? And what responsible adult doesn’t raise an eyebrow at them? Come on parents and teachers and principals: you’re okay with this official attire on young girls?

I’d be willing to bet that the school would not allow a non-uniform skirt this short to be worn in class on a normal school day. Hell, some schools in our area don’t even allow shorts or skirts above the top of the knee. But these cheerleader outfits show buttcheeks on some of the girls. (I specifically did not take pics of those.)

Would the parents let their girl go out on a date wearing a skirt this short? But they let them stand out in front of the whole school jumping and kicking in something like this?

I don’t expect the teenage girls to have the self control and responsibility to dress modestly, but it’s a damn shame that apparently the adult people around them don’t have the care or responsibility to keep official school uniforms appropriate for the young wearers.

And think of the boys, too. The poor things probably can’t stand up to cheer on their team for fear of revealing their perma-boners.

Q- Why do cheerleaders wear short skirts?

A- To make the boys’ root harder.

Sorry, but I had to throw in some levity to show I’m not all worked up in a tizzy about this. But I do think it is a failure of sensibility and responsibility from the parents and school officials.
