Well, I suppose I best do this stint, now that I'm 200+ posts in without doing it!

So, to start, I'm a 21 year old bloke, living in rainy England, in the province of Leeds. It seems that all the responses on Bing and Google are also to do with me personally (thanks GoodThings2Life for the inspiration to try that).

I'm often mistaken for Harry Potter, although admittedly I do like the franchise. I'm one of those tech-whores that seems to annoy everyone around them. I'm also autistic, further compounding my social issues.

I've had a gaming background too, spanning back to the SEGA MEGA DRIVE (Sonic the Hedgehog anyone?), then going through to the PS1, PS2, GameCube, Wii, and now Xbox 360 (I have omitted handheld consoles from this list). I've also managed a chess club at university, and am currently a member of the Video Games Society at said uni.

Despite the fact I'm living in the UK, I am trying to get with an American who still lives over there. And speaking of American things, I'm also a cheerleader, although at the time of posting am currently not in a squad. I like to go visit places, usually on a whim. I'm also a fan of using buses to get around, thanks to my ENCTS bus pass that gives me free bus travel in England.

That's all I can think of... for now.

Believe it or not, male cheerleaders exist. In fact, there's an all-male cheerleading squad about 10 miles from where I live.

First off, Welcome! I have seen your posts in forums so I know you have been here for a while, and are a good contributor.

On the next issue, We have a lot of male cheerleaders in the states. I watch a lot of college football here and I don't think I've seen a college football game without male cheerleaders.

Keep in mind that we have a lot of sects in the states that have strict stereotypes regarding gender. If you're a guy and you do dish washing or wash the laundry or become a male cheerleader you get shunned by your community and peers.

One thing for sure, is I'd love to be the male dancer who is going out with Jennifer Lopez. :D

Hi paladinleeds,

I remember you from Crackberry and always liked reading your posts both there and here. :)

Sonic the Hedgehog was one of my favorite classic games.

It makes me so cheerful I do back handsprings, cartwheels, and the like! I must admit, I do love being a cheerleader.
