You know, I have no idea. Both about why that stereotype and what they're like in most schools. I've never really had serious cheerleaders at any of my schools. But I'm guessing it has some basis in facts cause I've heard people talk about how horrible cheerleaders are. And then there's the whole thing with head cheerleaders and qb's. Don't really know what's up with that either; though I feel that that's more likely to have just been established/popularized by someone and has just been continued. I think there is actually some credence to the snooty cheerleader idea though.
