Do female cheerleaders get touched in places they didn't think they would? Especially when practicing new routines. Did you realize that was going to happen before trying out for the cheerleading team?
I would think it happens with any type of partner "lifting" activity. Ice skating. Cheering. Gymnastics. It doesn't seem like it can be helped.
I am sure those who do it intentionally are quickly found out and out of the activity.
I wasn't a cheerleader, but I have experience with being partnered for lifts. Sometimes it happens, hands do slip. It's not a big deal as long as you respect the intentions of your partner and are being professional about it - you kind of disassociate - it becomes a non-sexual thing. I've never had it happen where I felt like it was pervy or intentional. And... when it come down to it - I would rather get accidentally 'groped' than dropped.
I was a drum majorette, not a cheerleader, but in both dance classes and gymnastics, I often got touched in places that most girls would object to. Its not a big thing with me and I don't really get wigged-out by being touched in 'inappropriate' places
I was a cheerleader in high school and it does happen a lot as I was the flyer. if I think they are doing it on purpose or too much then I usually just give them a punch at practice the following day. Mostly its no big deal,things happen and you cant let it affect you.
I was a cheerleader in high school but it was all girls. Sometimes it was an accident. Sometimes it was on purpose. Didn't matter. It was fun.
Like Lindsey above, when I cheered it was all girls. Being more petite I was one of those being lifted and yes, we got touched so I am sure it's the same with mixed squads. Probably more so factoring in " non- accidents" lol
I was a cheerleader in highschool and yes it happened all the time not a big deal for me,kind of liked it
I have cheered most of my life and I am so sad to say I cheered my LAST game in Dec. I may cheer in the Orange and White game but Im not positive. As for the question......YES!!! It just comes with territory! I have been grabbed, caught, groped, and had hands and eyes wonder and get a *&^$^ full of whatever is grab able in the moment. CRAZY times!! But who doesn't love a REAL CHEERLEADER!!??
