Sorry, I guess I didn't understand what you were trying to say before. I thought your issue was uniforms and their contribution to the athleticism. I have no problem with minors in crops and skirts if they're tasteful. That might sound weird but maybe I'm just not bothered by seeing someone's belly button. Traditionally in cheer that's the uniform. They're at a venue where others are dressed similarly, like when people wear bikinis to the beach. It's not like they're parading around in them for fun in the mall or down Main St. When gym's have uniforms where cleavage is shown, butt cheeks are shown, there's no back, and people have to either go commando or bra less, then there's an issue regardless of age (not just TG, many other gyms with these issues have been discussed). When I was 16, I joined my first gym and wasn't ok with wearing a half top or a short skirt but my coaches added length to everyone's so that it looked tasteful.
