Do you wanna be a cheerleader?

[Melody Maia]

Ok, turns out the new me is a glory-hound, shameless and brave and how many cheerleader threads ever pop up on Susan's anyway? Here it is, but don't say I didn't warn you. It is hideous beyond compare. Burn the retinas out of your eyes bad.

There was a costume contest vote at this party and I came in second by one vote because a few people thought I was actually female, but found out after the vote that I wasn't. Those same people are all now in the mad-house.    I did keep that black mini though. It is hanging in my closet right now ready to be unleashed on the unsuspecting masses.

Awwww   You're so cute. Melody.

[Melody Maia]

Thank you. The ex still insists "there were no signs." Hehe.

[Lee]

Melody, I love how you're looking like you're having the best time ever in every photo I've seen of you.

[Melody Maia]

Thanks Lee. That is one of the rare before photos that looks like that. Probably because I came out to play. I didn't have a name yet.

[Janet_Girl]

Thank you. The ex still insists "there were no signs." Hehe.

They never see any signs.  Mine did not ether and she knew I have a problem with GID.

Right now? No, not really. But I do wish I had the chance to be one.

You do have a chance. I'll hold auditions.

Does the uniform have both dark green and dark blue, and do I get a year or two of feminisation beforehand?

Dark on dark doesn't work well. A fave color and contrast is perfect. You may have a year or two, just let me know when you're ready.

Awww. Light blue and dark green?

I was one. It was fun for a while. I think I did it to overcome the stigma I felt in being a female in brainy classes; perhaps to bug my intellectual family as well.  I wanted to increase my chances to date; especially since I was taller than the majority of boys, and in those days, it seemed impossible to feel feminine if the man was shorter. I did get to date a jock; even stayed with him after he gave me a black eye one night. 

But after I graduated high school, I went into the closet with regards to my cheerleading. I never told anyone. It was shameful; after all they are "airheads." I didn't talk about the black eye(s) either. Years later that boyfriend sincerely apologized to me. It still feels vulnerable to talk about both things. But I am free; no more closets for me.

I hope you enjoy the perspective.

Yep, I actually got to be one for a day when the football players and the cheerleaders got to switch for the powder puff game. It was sooo cool.  I was in la-la land.  I had a few guys think I was really a girl when I had stopped to get some things at a little convenient store around the block. They whistled and I got goose-bumps. 
I also got into trouble because the girl that switched with me, had a hard time trying to get it back. I was eventually called to the office where I just told them I had lost it but found it again....yeah, right  !

Cute!!! Love it! GO MELODY!!!!!!!!!!

[Melody Maia]

Oh, dear god, I'm regretting that photo. Put on the mini a few minutes ago just for kicks and was thinking about wearing it to karaoke night, but chickened out.

I'll stick with being emo if it's all the same to you.

Nothing more emo than a cheerleader for a team that always loses.  Be a Chicago Cubs Cheerleader, that would be new frontiers of emo.
