An activity and the participants in said activity who are extensions of The Establishment, and, ultimately, The Man. Indeed, cheerleading could be seen as social conditioning, a preparation for a life's service to The Establishment through the systematic brainwashing of said cheerleaders and suppression of any semblance of free thought or assembly in a high school/college environment. Indeed, cheerleading and cheerleaders could be seen as analagous to The Establishment, and cheerleader captains could be seen as analagous to The Man, with both entities feeding their unjustified and undeserved power.
Cheerleaders dress identically and chant sentences which praise "The Establishment."

A person who cheers for
A) Another sport, such as basketball or football
B) Themselves
This is commonly confused with a slut or a whore.
I'm going to clarify.
CHEERLEADERS. ARE. ATHELETES. We work hard and don't just run around wearing bootyshorts and being hyper. We work hard. We're not what the stereotype says. Get. It. Straight.
Most cheerleaders are also extremely flexible, so they can do scorpions/aerobesques/heel stretches/toetouches/pikes/herkies. They also should be strong for stunting.
Woah, the cheerleaders just ran five miles at practice!

a waste of a sport; a activity that isn't a sport
Cheerleading serves no absolute purpose but to make the audience horny with pretty rich shallow girls dressed in short skirts & slutty clothing. Most cheerleaders are popular in high school, & are well known for their shallow behavior & annoying nagging. Though there are a few who try to give the "sport" a good name, it doesn't work cause they all end up the same. And those who get into the sport experience the "cheerleader effect" where they become very shallow & think they're all that.
I guarantee 10 years from now the prettiest girls in your high school reunion will not be the cheerleaders! ;)
Cheerleading isn't a sport!

Starting in May of 2011, the NCAA is making CHEERLEADING a national sport. Cheerleading is the SPORT in which the team or SQUAD members, CHEERLEADERS, participate in multiple activities such as JUMPING, TUMBLING, STUNTING, and of course, CHEERING. There are multiple types of complicated jumps, hurdlers and toe toe-touches to start, that require immense amounts of flexibility. Tumbling is the gymnastics portion of cheerleading, consisting of tucks, handsprings, and more. Stunting is by far the most dangerous aspect, involving two BASES and one BACKSPOT throwing a FLYER up in the air to do various tricks before catching them again. This takes a great amount of strength, trust, and training by the cheerleaders. They can either be males or females, and they compete in various competitions worldwide. A cheerleader must be a strong, flexible, dedicated, and trustworthy person in order to be a member of the cheerleading squad. Although stereotyped, these members of society are actually highly respectable and turn out to be extremely successful. Examples of famous previous cheerleaders are: Kelly Ripa, Dakota Fanning, Sandra Bullock, Halle Berry, Meryl Streep, Cameron Diaz, and Sally Fields. You go girls!
It's hard for a cheerleader to be humble, when they can jump stunt and tumble.
A cheerleader has spirit, and does cool faces when they dance called "facials".

A person who enforces school spirit and shows pride. Also, cheerleaders are the representatives for the school/community and are positive examples. They are also preforms who dance, cheer, stunt, and tumble.
Dwight D. Eisenhower, Franklin D Roosevelt, Halle Berry, Jamie Lee Curtis, Madonna, Meryl Streep, Paula Abdul, Steve Martin, George W. Bush, and many other very respected people were all cheerleaders.

a sport that combines grace, agility, flexibility and strength into complicated dance and stunt routines, usually performed at halftime of another sporting event, i.e. - football, soccer, basketball, etc. As a sport, however, cheerleading is usually not taken seriously because of unfair and untrue archaic stereotypes. Cheerleading of the current day and age is intensely competitive, with close to 1000 competitions held yearly in the US alone. Two major professional groups that support education and competition are the National Cheerleaders Association (www.nationalspirit.com) and the Universal Cheerleaders Association (www.varsity.com) Check out these sites for further information.
The Cheerleading squad practices long hours to perfect their difficult stunts.

Although some annoying people insist cheerleading is not a sport, we practice just as hard as any other sport, we condition at every practice, must combine tremendous strength and grace into one full out routine which consists of cheer, dance, jumps, stunts, and attitude in order to compete, and take first place. We run to build stamina for a five minute performance without stopping, and condition more than some football teams. Although some claim we are bitchy I feel anyone who can catagorize a person simply by the sport they may do is stupid. You probably just cannot get with a cheerleader and therefore leave rude comments about them on sites like these. Hey everybody! GROW UP. You couldn't do it if you tried. Don't speak poorly of somrthing you know nothing about :-D **Smiling like a cheerleader** Buh Bye assholes.
Cheerleaders who spend 2-3 hours a day practicing, not only for games (ie basketball or football) but also for competitions in which they compete against challenging competition, often said to not be a sport by ignorant people but quite obviously is.
