He flung himself en arrière and en avant, he pirouetted under the posts and jeté -ed across the fifty yard line. He was terrific. Some people in the crowd got a little wound up, apparently annoyed that a gender boundary might be in danger of subversion on the very altar of American masculinity’s defining ritual. ...
One importation here that wasn't completely perverted (as in twisted, not the American obsessed/must be sexual perversion) was the whole cheerleading thing. Girls cheer the boys, and boys cheer the girls. Of course they're actually leading cheers, too, rather than shaking ass for entertainment...

I just recently saw a tv drama based on the true story of some boys at a prestigious high school that fought for the right to do synchronized swimming. It was fun. It's called Waterboys. I wish I'd heard of it back when I was close enough to see one of their events.

I never understood why the same people who are constantly putting their hands on each others' asses are so worried about someone who crosses a supposed gender line.
