To answer your poorly posed question: I suppose it's for the people who are hiring and building cheerleader squads for their teams. This of course assumes cheerleaders have some value to society outside of being sexual objects who exist to distract from the game. Perhaps this is where opinions on who they're for differ.
Fun fact: almost every single college in America has male cheerleaders. They're almost half of all cheerleaders that exist. I wonder who they're for

No, I answered the question why the yell leaders exist in Edmonton or Texas A&M. Not why the Vikings have a man dancing like a lady and which audience that will appeal to.

I don't have a "problem" with male cheerleaders. The Vikings are the only team in the NFL I give a crap about in any real way, and if in the post season they're playing I'll watch their games and hope they win. I'm not upset over this, or demanding people write their state rep in Minnesota. I find the decision genuinely baffling and a total misreading of their customer.
