YEah, but does anyone want to see guys with sparkles on their face, ponytails, and big bows? I think not. It's already assumed they're all gay ...

I think the impression of what's too sketchy of a uniform doesn't really come down to one particular item but rather the whole package - costume, makeup, types of routines.

The reason I mentioned the cheerleaders for the Miami Dolphins, Dallas Cowboys, or New England Patriots is that a kid could be confused if she figured that's what cheerleaders grow up to be.

....and some cheerleaders are just cheerleaders without the heavy makeup and types of routines.

That might be much more equitable, and some people might find it very motivational!

Same here, I was never allowed to walk the street's. In this day and age Imo when kids's hang out around town and on the streets parent's are to laxed. Many buisness complain about "loitering" They do not want them there. There are many no loitering signs, no skateboarding signs, no biking ect.

That is why where I live there are youth centers, youth groups, skate park's ymca, bike park's park's community center's, libraries and homes to hang out in, ect to keep kid's off the streets, expecially at dusk and nite.

My home town where i grew up, now has a curfew of dusk for any children under 15, a group of teenagers were gang banged in one of the more influential communities PLUS there was a riot, three boy's were murdered this all happened within a year. This is a small town about a hour out of Chicago.

We do not have many kid's walking around the neighborhoods, in the town I live in now. Im not sure if there is a curfew. If they are they are doing nothing but causing trouble and the proper authorities are notified, Immediatley, my area has no tolerance for loitering.

I guess that is why everyone hang's out at my house and eat's all my food! LOL!
