My question that I am inquiring is why cheerleading is a sport?
What I also question is
why does society frown upon cheerleaders? My last and final question is why society frowns upon male cheerleaders? They matter because I want to break the stereotype that society has on cheerleading. People think that is just a girls activity and that it is girls just dancing around half naked. Cheerleading isnt that, it is so much more than that.

I can elaborate on how feminism plays a part in this because cheerleading is frowned upon, but volleyball they wear the same thing but society finds it acceptable. Another source I will be using is Go! Fight! Win! : Cheerleading in American culture which goes in depth with how cheerleading is a sport. It also talks about how it is a symbol for leadership but also the negative outlook on how it is only popular people and attractiveness. My third source is In the game: gay athlete and the cult of masculinity which provides stories of athletes struggling with being gay while participating in a sport, cheerleading is in one of the chapters. With this it can take on a psychological approach with how these boys are athletes, just because they are gay doesnt make them any less of an athlete. Other resources I will use is finding article that are peer reviewed proving that cheerleading is a sport and what makes it a sport. I will also look up information on how culture has defined cheerleading and how maybe feminism can be connected to this sport. I.
