Many people, women included, judge dancers and cheerleaders based on what they see at a game, rarely knowing what really goes on behind the scenes and how these ladies are chosen to be on the field and court.

Here are just a few reasons to look past the cleavage, glossy lips and hair, and barely-there outfits and to consider what these teams and women are about.

We don’t get benefits or paid enough to pay for our own benefits so we have to have another

job outside of dance.

Dancers are always stereotyped and not well understood. They dance because they love it not for the little money they do get. Most of them are well educated with fulltime jobs outside of being a pro dancer. You have to know and understand them and their lives to know what all they go through before you stereotyping them and making them look like they are worthless.
