By detailing individual experiences, Anderson shows how these athletes are emerging from their athletic closets and contesting the dominant norms of masculinity. From the locker rooms of high school sports, where the atmosphere of "don't ask, don't tell" often exists, to the unique circumstances that gay athletes encounter in professional team sports, this book analyzes the agency that openly gay athletes possess to change their environments SPORTS & RECREATION / Essays bisacsh SPORTS & RECREATION / History bisacsh SPORTS & RECREATION / Business Aspects bisacsh SPORTS & RECREATION / Reference bisacsh GAMES / Gambling / Sports bisacsh TRAVEL / Special Interest / Sports bisacsh Gay athletes fast Homophobia in sports fast Masculinity in sports fast Sports / Social aspects fast Geschichte Gesellschaft Gay athletes Masculinity in sports Sports Social aspects Homophobia in sports Homophobie (DE-588)4688835-4 gnd rswk-swf Männerbild (DE-588)4139085-4 gnd rswk-swf Homosexualität (DE-588)4025798-8 gnd rswk-swf Sport (DE-588)4056366-2 gnd rswk-swf Sport (DE-588)4056366-2 s Männerbild (DE-588)4139085-4 s Homosexualität (DE-588)4025798-8 s 1\p DE-604 Homophobie (DE-588)4688835-4 s 2\p DE-604 http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=144956 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
