Sports and Homophobia

"Dale Hansen, a host on Dallas-Fort Worth ABC affiliate WFAA, took it upon himself to point out the inherent paradox of this entire homophobic debacle. Watch him perfectly sum up what's wrong with the NFL being uncomfortable with homosexuality while simultaneously tolerating a host of other questionable behaviors from other men in the league like sexual assault."

  1. I like that he pointed that out. In my opinion, it puts the lie to the idea that homosexuality is unwanted in "men's spaces" because it's improper, deviant, immoral, &c. and shows that its because it is interpreted as challenging to men's ability to maintain a gender class position from which to dominate women. That was my take on it, anyway. Thanks for posting. -Dylan
