I get so tired of hearing that every time a woman objects to something another woman is doing. For some guys, it's the default response.
Look, I happen to have a different view than @musiclady on this. I don't have a problem with professional cheerleaders. But she does, and to assume it's appearance-based is silly when you've never seen her at all.
I tell you,
@CatherineofAragon , there are people around here who cannot deal with differences of opinion.
They assume nefarious motives (especially for women) because basically, there are too many who just can't handle secure women.
I usually let it roll off my back, because I'm VERY secure in what I look like and who I am, but on this thread, the multiple number of insecure males made me scurry away.
I still believe that women who make themselves sex objects deliberately (i.e. cheerleading, pole dancing, stripping) have very low opinions of their true worth, and to do so is not smart. But I do understand that there are both males and females who disagree with that view, and as I said multiple times upthread, I am FINE with having an opinion on this that others don't share.
I do appreciate that
@Smokin Joe was able to discuss the issue and strongly disagree without the stupid cracks that I'm somehow jealous about something that I would never want in a million years............ to be ogled by beer drinking, wife-beater wearing, pot bellied men every Sunday afternoon! I'm more of a watch the game, you idiots, kind of female.
Thanks for the support, though. I wasn't planning on coming back to it, but what you say is always worthwhile, disagree, or not. The only reason I posted on this thread in the first place was to express a different, and very conservative view, and maybe help a few people think differently.
(btw, I'm glad SOME people can think for themselves and allow others to have differing opinions without mockery, around here! So thanks again!)
