Doesn't mean they should lol. Like that time my brother was five and flipped me off..he's lucky he didn't lose that finger ;)
I don't know that it's suddenly 'ultra-conservative ATTACK OF DEATHNESS', but it's one of those things that's kinda obvious but you just don't realize it. Like at work today, I was carrying a tray and four glasses in my hand. My manager came up to me and goes 'You know, you could have just put the glasses ON the tray, right?' And I felt like an idiot. It's might not be that we're suddenly afraid of being less than 100% PC, but that we realized that screaming 'FREAKIN' out 20 times in a mini's mix probably isn't actually a good image to represent allstar cheer. Something we only realized AFTER we were reminded that appropriate wording and choreo is something we need to maintain. Or that maybe getting frisky with the floor isn't the most 'family friendly' of dance moves..
