To Be Skimpy or Not To Be Skimpy

I just read this news article on Yahoo about cheerleaders and skimpy uniforms. One group in Florida was pushing to wear smaller outfits and the other in Connecticut was pushing for uniforms that covered their midriffs.
This shows a lot about today's girls. The girl from Connecticut had a study on her side. A study that showed in college cheerleaders who's outfits showed midriffs had a higher risk of getting an eating disorder. Which I can understand. You're out in front of millions of people, in the stands and on TV. If I was in front of that many people every weekend in something showing off my body I would do anything to look good. Not saying that getting at eating disorder is good, in no way am I saying that. I give this girl so much credit for pushing for uniforms that make the girls feel better about themselves.
Now these girls who are pushing for smaller uniforms should be slapped. If they were my daughters I would take them to a whore house and show them what their trying to look like at the age of 16 through 18. I know that's harsh of me to say but I think in this day and age we need to start respecting our bodies as women. As a 21 year old I know that they only want smaller uniforms because they think it makes them all sexier ( sluttier) to guys. As a mother I think we need to teach our daughters that wearing little to nothing is not being sexy. We need to teach them that their bodies need to be respected by other and themselves.
OK I'm starting to rabble and this is just my opinion. Here's the article you can read and make your own opinion, Yahoo, cheerleaders.
