A few years ago I would have been like 'nah that's gay', but after signing my daughter up for competitive cheer leading and seeing the 4 boys on the older squad and how much 'time' they get to spend with those girls on trips and such, I won't discourage him one bit if that's what he wants.

Check out the stats for competitive cheerleading injuries. Not pretty either. Its running & jumping & spinning & tumbling & lifting & falling from heights & 40 competitive athletes going all out on an unpadded floor in a confined space for 2-1/2 minutes. shite happens.
But he will get to spend middle school, high school, & college with his hand up some pretty girl's skirt looking up into heaven, so maybe its worth it!

Seriously though... I've seen stats where cheerleading is more dangerous than any of the boys sports and I believe it. I can't go anywhere in the Atlanta area without seeing some cute young girl with a knee or ankle brace. And I've seen some "flyers" get almost completely missed coming down and smack their heads pretty good... no doubt a lot of concussions too.
