  • The Unladylike Ladies of Roller Derby?: How Spectators, Players and Derby Wives Do and Redo Gender and Heteronormativity in All-Female Roller Derby
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by White Rose E-theses Online The Unladylike Ladies of Roller Derby?: How Spectators, Players and Derby Wives Do and Redo Gender and Heteronormativity in All-Female Roller Derby Megan Geneva Murray PhD The University of York Women’s Studies January 2012 Abstract All-female roller derby is a rapidly growing full-contact sport played on quad roller skates, with a highly popularized punk, feminine, sexual and tough aesthetic. Utilising theories on the institution of heterosexuality, I conducted a qualitative study on all-female roller derby which evaluated the way in which derby aligns with or challenges heteronormativity. In order to approach this question, I analysed, firstly, thirty-eight interviews with spectators, and twelve with players about their interactions with spectators. Secondly, I interviewed twenty-six players about the phenomenon of “derby wives,” a term used to describe particular female friendships in roller derby. My findings relate the complex relationship between players and spectators by focusing on: (i) spectators’ interpretations of the dress, pseudonyms, and identities of players, as well as the ways in which they were actively involved in doing gender through their discussions of all-female, coed, and all-male roller derby; (ii) players’ descriptions of their interactions with spectators, family members, romantic partners, friends and strangers, regarding roller derby. Additionally, I address the reformulation of the role “wife” to meet the needs of female players within the community, and “derby wives” as an example of Adrienne Rich’s (1980) “lesbian continuum.” “Derby girls” are described as “super heroes” and “rock stars.” Their pseudonyms are believed to help them “transform” once they take to the track.

ATHENS OF THE SOUTH: COLLEGE LIFE IN NASHVILLE, A NEW SOUTH CITY, 1897-1917 by Mary Ellen Pethel Under the Direction of Dr. Wendy Hamand Venet ABSTRACT The Progressive Era affected the South in different ways from other regions of the United States. Because Southern society was more entrenched in patriarchy and traditional social strictures, Nashville provides an excellent lens in which to assess the vision of a New South city. Known as ―Athens of the South,‖ Nashville legitimized this title with the emergence of several colleges and universities of regional and national prominence in the 1880s and 1890s. In the first two decades of the twentieth century, Nashville‘s universities solidified their status as reputable institutions, with Vanderbilt and Fisk Universities garnering national prominence. Within Nashville, local colleges, including Ward Belmont College, David Lipscomb University, Peabody College, Roger Williams University, and Meharry Medical College shaped and were shaped by the growing city.

  • ABSTRACT PARROTTA, KYLIE LYNN. the Politics of Athletic Authenticity
    ABSTRACT PARROTTA, KYLIE LYNN. The Politics of Athletic Authenticity: Negotiating Organizational Change and Identity Dilemmas in Women’s Flat Track Roller Derby. (Under the direction of Michael Schwalbe). This study examines how members of a democratic organization negotiated growth and change based on differential identity investments and identity rewards. Based on nearly three years of participant-observation, fifty-four in-depth interviews, and archival data from Listservs, websites, blogs, and forums, I show how skaters in a women’s flat-track roller derby league negotiated what it meant to be a rollergirl. I argue that initial identity codes, or rules for signifying a derby identity, were renegotiated as some skaters sought to be recognized as serious athletes and bring the sport to a larger audience. Skaters who embraced a “sexy bad girl” identity and an image of derby as sexualized spectacle resisted organizational change. I show how the rapid growth of women’s roller derby at the global, national, and local levels generated and complicated these identity-related organizational struggles. Finally, I analyze the strategies that skaters and volunteers used to make time for involvement in derby, and how these strategies created inequities that further intensified pressures for change. My research suggests that scholars need to pay more attention to how the extra-organizational environment shapes identity struggles within organizations, and to the role of identity in negotiating organizational change more generally. © Copyright 2015
