There is always talk about how we need to do this or that so we can be recognized as a sport to the world, but why? Why do we want to be recognized as a sport so bad? We would have to break down so many stereotypes that society has of us and have them see what we do, to know there is more than the cheerleaders at high school basketball/ football games. To show them we aren't the Lakers or Dallas Cowboy "cheerleaders". I don't feel the need anymore to defend myself against people who are too simpleminded to even listen or watch a video to prove my point. And if they do watch a video they swear up and down they can do the same thing right now. I'm happy knowing that this is a sport and we work just as hard, if not harder, than other sports out there. I'm a cheerleader and I am proud! If people aren't willing to be open minded about this then I don't care what they think in the first place.
