You've got a point. It's not very family-friendly.

Stay home, guys. More for me.

I went to a cavs game and noticed the same thing. I would say strippers instead of streetwalkers though. Not every stripper is a ho.

Jeez, you're a prude just for using the term streetwalker.

I think they're dressed like ladies of the night.

Harlots! Scarlet Women! Jezebels!!!

PICS PLS KTHNX!

What is this "NBA" you speak of?

Hey, that looks like Levien Gym. Did you go to school there, H_B?

Mmmm, can we quote that guy's picture a few more times, pretty please? Sheesh.

No. I have no idea where that is. Just used the power of Google image search. It's random.

Yes, you are a prude if the female body offends you. Just my opinion though.

You're telling young, hot, and did I mention young, women to put more clothes on.

Stop. Please. For us married folks.

So you prefer college football to pro football because of the cheerleaders as well right?

For your own sake, I recommend you stay far far away from any high school proms.

If the NBA cheerleaders outfits bother you, the current prom fashions might very well kill you.

That's what I love about these high school girls, man. I get older, they stay the same age.

Perhaps it's more the exploitation of the female body that he finds offensive.

Your perspective changes a little bit when you have a daughter.

If they choose to dress that way I don't see how it's exploitation. No one is putting a gun to their head.

Exploitation doesn't have to be forced in order to exist.

The ball hugger shorts of the 80s. Now that was exploitation.

Exploitation doesn't have to be forced in order to exist.

If these girls are fine with what they are doing I don't see how it can be called exploitation. Women have used their sexuality since the dawn of man to get the things they want. Unless you are talking about women exploiting themselves to get themselves the things they want, which to me makes it moot since that's like a oxymoron. Because if you exploint yourself for your own gain they you had the choice to make the decision. It's just like a worker that works their ass off to gain praise and promotions at work, you can't say your company is exploiting you if you made the decision to exploit yourself for your own gain.


edit.
FYI : I'm not approving the actions, I'm just saying people need to take responsibility of their own actions.

Well, actually, I said "exploitation of the female body".. not exploitation of those particular women. I didn't say that they were victims. But I do think that it's possible to be offended by seeing the female body exploited (regardless of whether the owner of the body is freely taking part in the exploitation) but not find the female body itself inherently offensive.

It's possible to be offened by seeing someone pick their nose in public, too. :D

True.. and I suppose you wouldn't call someone a prude for being offended by that either :)

What offends me is the commercialization of sexuality; I don't mind admiring a beautiful woman, but it's different when she's grinding her hips like a stripper and dressed like a hooker. That, to me, is distasteful. It's totally different at the college level.

Ladies & Gentlemen, I give to you, the NEW, CLASSY, NON-EXPLOITIVE LAKER GIRLS:

What frightens me is when they bring out the ten year old junior cheerleaders and they're doing all the Britney Spears grinding and gyrating...

Saying that it's different at the college level is BS, though. Yes, cheerleaders tend not to dress in skintight clothes and do all the sexy moves, but the majority of schools have DANCE SQUADS that do them in their place.

That's because professional league cheerleaders are in actuality Dance Squads.

Yup

That's true, there are colleges that are just as creepy with their showgirls as the nba. But, for the most part, it's much more wholesome. It's also a lot better in the nfl than the nba.

HAY GUYS I WATCH SPORTS BECAUSE THEY'RE WHOLESOME

What I find interesting is the fact that while there's usually a big difference in content between collegiate cheerleaders and pro dance squads, there's very little difference in age in the peformers.

I'd suggest seeing it in person to really understand how tiresome that jiggling and booty shaking can become.

They're as exploited as the NBA players are for their particular talents.
