  • How the Institution of Sport Reinforces Homophobia Kelsey Lucyk
    66 Don’t be Gay, Dude: How the Institution of Sport Reinforces Homophobia Kelsey Lucyk Abstract Kelsey Lucyk analyzes how the media and the institution of sport have entrenched certain ideals about masculinity meanwhile reinforcing homophobic attitudes towards gender roles in sports. This article focusses primarily on analyzing Canadian sports and makes use of the concept of muscular Christianity to explain hegemonic masculinity as found in the Canadian institution of sport. Introduction With his introduction of Bill C-150 in 1967, Justice Minister Pierre Trudeau famously declared that: “There is no place for the state in the bedrooms of the nation.”1 Eighteen months later, when the Senate passed Trudeau’s “Omnibus Bill,” homosexuality was decriminalized in Canada.2 Today, the Canadian Government recognizes equal rights for homosexuals regarding spousal pensions, military participation, divorce, adoption, immigration, and marriage.3 However, while the state does not concern itself with matters that occur in the bedrooms of the nation, the same cannot be said for sport. The institution of sport is fundamentally heterosexist; by reproducing and rewarding hegemonic masculinity, sport reinforces, naturalizes, and institutionalizes homophobic behaviors. Because I am investigating institutionalized homophobia, I will draw from a wide range of examples to emphasize the homophobic nature of the institution of sport rather than a specific sport, team, or level of competition. I illustrate homophobia in sport from all levels of athletic participation: spectatorial, amateur, elite, and professional. To accommodate this wide scope, I examine dominant masculinity as it has existed in Canada since the 1980s, rather than addressing the competing masculinities throughout our nation’s history.
