I am a male cheerleader. I started cheering my sophomore year in high school, and have been doing it since for 2 state universities. I would say it is a stereotype, but an unrealistic one. You might as well say, "All men are gay."
My point is, it is probably about the same percentage of male cheerleaders that are gay as the general male population, say 10%, for instance. It might even be a little bit higher, but not much. What got me hooked on cheering was stunting, and the fact that I could tumble definitely helped out.
As it is, I double full, do standing fulls, toss full up stunts, and I'm also the middle layer in pyramids. I'm a male cheerleader, I'm heterosexual, and the only real rule we have is no dating the girls on our team.
Half of the guys on our team are members of my fraternity, including my big brother, and surprise, none of us are gay.
