Week 8

The main theme that I am noticing in my subculture is that I am trying to give people the truth about cheerleaders. My theme tries to get outsiders to understand that cheerleaders are not always the snobby, ditzy, preppy girls that some may think they are. I plan on focusing on all the skill and talent it takes to be a cheerleader. The field-site has a lot to do with the theme because there are some physical things that appear in them to give people some of their perceptions. My thoughts on my subculture have not really changed, but I have discovered why people easily get some these perceptions about cheerleaders. I have come to discover that not all cheerleaders are sweet and innocent, but its not only just cheerleaders. It can be other people that give the vibe as not being so innocent and it could reflect upon their own subculture giving people these perspectives. I have learned to keep an open mind to people opinions and ask why and then understand it.
