The Female Cheerleaders

THE FEMALE CHEERLEADERS OF THE UNITOMI ACADEMY'S ALL-BOYS GLITTERY YELL CHEER CLUB

The Unitomi Academy is well known as an all-boy's school for it's excellence in academics, as well as all of the programs and activities that the school sponsors. The Unitomi Academy's Glittery Yell Cheer Club is no exception. The Cheer Club is well known for its outstanding performances during all of the school's athletic events, as well as its reputation for excelling in the various cheer competitions. Also adding to Unitomi's and the Cheer Club's legacy is the fact that the Cheer Club has always been made up of students presenting as female cheerleaders. Many gender-variant boys, who seek a venue where they can perform as girls, come to Unitomi Academy, specifically to be accepted by the school, and to try out for the Cheer Club. Once designated as an official member of the Cheer Club, the new cheerleader will be given a girl's name. All of the girls in the Cheer Club have names, in the Japanese language, that are names of flowers. The President of the Cheer Club, a blue-eyed, yellow hair blonde, is named Rozu Ki (Yellow Rose). All kinds of gender-variant boys are considered and accepted, however, the majority of team members have almost always been trans girls. Although all the team members are legal minors, therefore not able to direct their own gender concerns, yet the Cheer Club allows the trans girls to begin their transition from male to female in an accepting and encouraging environment.

In the story, when the team is doing the dance routine, ten girls are shown in formation. However, the team, including alternates and newbies, as well as exchange members with other clubs, is probably around 16-18 members. All of the girls in the Cheer Club are given female names, names of flowers, to reinforce their role as honored and accepted female cheerleaders. Yuuto picked up on this when she mentioned to herself that the team is like a field of flowers. Yuuto, a male name, has been accepted into the Cheer Club by the President, while the team was out on the soccer field after the game ended. She will probably soon get her official cheer club's girl's flower name.

The Cheer Club's residence is actually three spacious rooms in the building on campus that houses all the after school clubs. The Cheer Club has a well decorated clubroom, done with a very feminine touch. Attached to the clubroom is a locker room, where the girls can change between their male school uniform, and their cheer costumes. Also attached to the clubroom is a professional dance studio and workout area. This is where the team can practice dance and cheer routines, when they can not do so out of doors.

The official female cheer costume is of a two-piece design, with a bare midriff. It consists of a sleeveless cheer top resembling a fancy vest. The top is of a dark turquoise color, with a cream-colored diagonal stripe that goes from the left shoulder to just above the right hip. (The President's stripe goes from right shoulder to left hip) The top is trimmed with black edging, around the "V' neckline, and around the lower vest hemline. A cone-shaped notch is cut out of the lower front of the top, exposing the girl's navel (belly button) to view. Under the top is worn a white training bra, as just about all of the team members have flat chests. (One trans girl has small boobs) The bottom half of the costume begins with white girl's panties, over the panties are worn cream-colored buruma, for modesty, and to cover the underwear. An extremely short, pleated mini-skirt is worn over the buruma. It is of the same dark turquoise color, with black inserts inside the pleats. A wide black stripe, with a narrow white stripe in the center, is placed just above the hemline of the mini-skirt, and goes around the entire circumference of the mini-skirt. Black knee-socks, and white girl's athletic shoes, complete the costume. Pom-poms of the dark turquoise color are the costume's accessories.
