>>No, its not a good point.
Apples and oranges, again.<<
I think you need to learn some forensics. Scantily clad is scantily clad. Whether on the beach, on the field, on a magazine cover or in a concert.
Frankly, the sexual moves in a Beyonce concert are a LOT more sexual (basically simulating sex) than cheerleaders.
Not apples and oranges at all. Your assertion is not a contention. You say scantily clad women are acting like sluts. Your words.
I say men like to see them. Evolution may say that men’s atavistic response is from a desire to reproduce but Real Men know that and can control themselves.
I have to assume you are not one of those men and thus need to have the temptation removed.
Again: the gear and activities have not changed for 40 years. That is a fact.
We're talking about NFL cheerleaders here, grown women. They can choose to do what they like and don't need a permission slip signed by their moms. Well, they can unless lefty SJWs suddenly deem that job undesirable, then they have to find a different dream.
Lefties still seem to think stripping and porn are okay so those are approved career paths still, though my sense is that the NFL cheerleaders are beautiful and outgoing but not trampy so they probably don't want those jobs. So if's off to McDonalds to flip birgers I guess. At least they won't be "demeaned" anymore by dancing on a football field.
Because you disagree with the poster, the OlLine Rebel, who was upholding morality, as real men are to men do, vs licentiousness.Thus in responding to him i also pinged you to "Actually Kaslin argues as if something is wrong with you, like liberals do," but as i mistook kaslin for the author, so in correcting that I also pinged you. That's how you got looped.
Meanwhile the burka argument is a false, eitheer/or dichotomy, as explained .
It’s an absurd strawman argument.
Western civ was NEVER as restrictive as Moslem terrorists. But just because they like to be modest does not make ANYONE ELSE who wants modesty a Moslem terrorist. It’s been common in every real civilization.
I am against TASTELESS TRASH that trivializes women and turns them into objects of lust. I wear bikinis, etc. I will NOT wear a thong type showing all the booty - NEVER would, even at my most gorgeous self. That is disgusting overt sexuality. So yeah, I’m not big on the “swimsuit” (Playboy) issue. If it shouldn’t be seen by kids, it shouldn’t be in public, period.
BTW, I’m a woman.
So yeah, one might say I’m a bit prejudiced. But then, we often assume men will be biased.
Not you. Good for you.
It’s more respectable than trying to titillate men.
Which generally libs are all about. They are obsessed with sex and drugs. Anything that leads to ruin.
No — it is a question of degree and NOT a false dichotomy.
Maybe not burkas per se but coverings as dictated by someone.
Burkas are his argument, merely taken the the only logical extreme.
“as dictated by someone.”
Who said there would be laws?
That is the false premise of liberals - like WE always make laws. THEY do that.
This is nothing to do about laws. It’s about societal norms and common decency. There used to be lots of that. Expectations. So what if our opinion is it is immoral and lewd? We have every right to express that, and try to change how things are done. But it has nothing to do with forcing anything by government.
That is the same kind of false premise liberals use - as if conservatives, e.g., are always making laws about morality. Rarely, do we. We make lots of statements and noise, but not laws.

Oh Please.
Never believed Cheerleading was a sport. Now I do. Competetive Cheerleading is intense.
High school and college sport cheerleading is athletic.
The attire is fine, imo. None of my kids were cheerleaders, they played sports, but cheerleading is a sport now.
We women snarl and cringe?
Not all of us.
Nothing wrong with cheerleaders and especially now with how athletically competitively they are.
OMG I hope this is a facetious post.
If not, no words.
So “hookers” are ok in high school?
WTFever.
HA!
I bet I’m more Conservative than you.
And being a Conservative and/or Christian doesn’t give one carte blanche to cram their myopic sense of morality down other people’s throats because by doing so they’re no better than the taliban or the liberals for that matter.
Abortions of convenience (other than medical, rape or incest) should be illegal, the board of directors of planned parenthood and the politicians who support them should be brought up on charges of genocide.
Children should be able to pray in school as they so choose. The Pledge of Allegiance should once again be recited along with having a moment of silence.
Government should be out of everyone’s homes and businesses. Some politician or government bureaucrat should never have any right to tell a parent how to raise their kid or tell a business owner who they have to hire (affirmative action), or provide service for (baking a cake).
Do away with “hate crimes” laws since these are rarely if ever equally applied.
Do away with anti-discrimination laws for the above stated reason.
Do away with affirmative action laws. Everyone should be hired for a job or selected to attend a school based on their character, education, or other skills instead of race or gender.
Eliminate motor-voter laws in federal elections, and enforce 100% ID check in such elections.
As far as the federal government, 85% of it can be reduced in scope/reach or eliminated outright.
End baseline budgeting, and roll the budget back 30 years.
End all government employee unions. Fire and/or prosecute those employees who steal from the taxpayers.
Military veterans with an honorable discharge regardless of time in service should be issued a rifle and magazines for said rifle upon discharge.
Secure the border, and end all immigration for 25 years. No H1 or other visas for employment purposes allowed either. Anyone and everyone here in this country illegally will be given 30 days to pack up everything lock, stock, and barrel and return to their home countries and never return. If they do try to return, they are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, and must repay 100% of all social services they previously used.
Repeal the XVII Amendment, and replace it with one that returns the selection of Senators to the individual state’s legislatures. Also imposes term limits on the house and senate, ban family members from running for the same seat once a term has expired. And a lifetime ban for outgoing congressmen/senators and their families from lobbying. They will also be prevented from seeking another seat in another chamber (house to senate or senate to house), district or state.
There should also be tort reform.
That’s just for starters.
Excellent post!
You don’t get to decide.
Yeah I know.
A comedy genius such as Mel Brooks would be thrown in prison for doing a movie such as Blazing Saddles these days.
