Here is my last letter to ESPN could you please give me some more ideas on what to write to convince them about this exploitation:
For the past 6-7 years, ESPN and its nationwide networks have exploited cheer/dance teams all across the country. They do this by parking their TV cameras on these women for their own personal entertainment.
Pigs park their cameras on us close up, front view, dozens of times each game, yet rarely ever show on TV in this manner.
We have asked nicely for them to respect us and all women, yet they refuse. They exploit innocent people, so we will too. When they start respecting us, we stop mailing these out.
I won't stop writing these until something is done and I need to think of more things to write about this exploitation. Do any of you have any thoughts??

No matter how much gender abuse I get from cranks on here I will not stop until they start showing women some respect:

First of all, this sounds vaguely familiar to a bomb threat that turned up around a week or so ago. With that said; if you do not want to be an sex object, then don't try out for the cheer leading squad. If you do not like the content of the show, don't watch. You are not their target audience, and I am sorry to tell you this, but their target audience enjoys seeing half naked women dance on television. Go to the news stand, pick up a Cosmo, a seventeen, or any other female oriented magazine and look for all the photos objectifying men, yet no one complains. Why? This is America and you have the right to express your opinion as much as they have to show that on the television.

Some are and some aren't. One can't make a blanket statement about all women of any race. Beauty is completely subjective and in the eye of the beholder. Most of the people here are being very stereotypical, even the ones who are being complimentary. All black women don't have wide noses or thick lips or the same texture of hair or glowing skin or big butts or even dark skin. The vast majority of black Americans are mixed race even if they don't appear to be to you - it's the reason why most black Americans don't look like Africans. I don't know what women the ones who've spoken on personal hygiene are hanging around but maybe you need to find a better class of people to associate with.

I would demand the objectification of Men in the audience and cheer squad. Not that that will do much, but You might get some sort of reaction. It is the Directors choice of tight shot that the camera operator is focusing in on. What would happen if it was a female Director? Would there be any difference in the quality of the telecast? Who sets the rules? The audience and the viewers, or the TV station Management? What is Their public policy with regards sexism in sporting broadcasting?

Troll. Bad Clone. Poor Replica. The real Baba would rarely ask for help, and never in such a sappy way. lol
So we're not going to help you with your trolling; we won't help you write your letter about the objectification of women in the media since you could care less about women.

I couldn't agree with you more but ESPN makes money on objectifying women like that. I've always wondered what a close up shot of a woman's butt has to do with a sporting event.

ah, c'mon.
Another crappy troll
But let's pretend it was real. That'll teach ya!
women that choose to hop around in skintight costumes that show off their store-bought jugs and bubble butts and wave crap around as part of huge effort to make barely literate
trained-ape athletes into national heroes have already demeaned themselves to the extent that recording and transmitting what they do to the drooling, beer swilling, vicarious-thrill seeking slobs that watch that useless channel could scarcely amplify or augment that degradation.
Write a letter to the women being "objectified." Tell them to go back to school. Learn how to do something besides shake their cans. Might do more good.
But probably not.

I know, you should start it out by saying..."There's this Persian girl at my gym who looks at me when I'm not looking, but I know she's looking 'cause the voices in my head tell me she's looking, and she's abrasive and cold to me, but I know she likes me 'cause the voices say so (and they never lie), even though she completely ignores me (except when she stares at me when I can't see her) and seems offended by me, but she likes me because I'm complex, emotional, and problemed, and an extremely multi-talented sociopath who's complicated. How should I interpret this situation? What do I make of it? Oh yeah, and stop objectifying women."
