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. 650 0 $a Gay athletes. 650 0 $a Masculinity in sports. 650 0 $a Sports $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Homophobia in sports. 650 6 $a Sportifs homosexuels. 650 6 $a MasculiniteÌ dans les sports. 650 6 $a Sports $x Aspect social. 650 6 $a Homophobie dans les sports. 856 41 $3 Table of contents $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0422/2004021367.html 856 41 $u http://hdl.handle.net/1951/29074 $3 Full text of book available. $z To read click here, then click view/open. 941 $a 12 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214035611.0 952 $l UPAX334 $d 20230104034945.0 952 $l PMAX975 $d 20191119043754.0 952 $l ULAX314 $d 20190926085306.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160823025623.0 952 $l O3AX572 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l OMAX631 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l OSAX771 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UTAX115 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UWAX953 $d 20090701080000.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=43D179D02B0911DEBA4F1C08A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b IOMInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
