Research on Sexuality in Football

Dear all,

 

I am involved in some university research that is looking at sexuality in football and I would appreciate a few minutes of your time to share your thoughts on this subject. The survey is anonymous and can be found here:

Thanks in advance for your time.

Not a single pair of knockers on this lads. It’s a trap.

Done. I’m away to do my lipstick now 💋

Done - Good luck with the study

Would anybody really give a shit anymore?

Nope, & that's what I said in the study paper.

I remember Hitzlsperger for having a fuckin great left foot (bastard scored against us), not for being gay.

That's what I think 👍

I think the problem is more.likelybto be in the dressing room that on the terraces.

Exactly what I said too. Problem is they are worried what team mates think and them the pressure of social media and the keyboard warriors. 
 

agents will also be telling them to keep quiet as agent looking out for any threat to their own revenue stream. They really are a scourge on our game 

The pressure of being THE gay footballer and everything he does being scrutinized in a way no other player is will be the biggest factor.

Plus the fact gay lads are likely to be put off footy at a much younger age 

Brighton fans get abuse just for supporting a team based in a city that has a larger than average gay population, so any gay footballer would certainly get it from the brain deads on the terraces.

without a doubt, it would be absolutely relentless, no matter what anybody says

Would it be any different to the coach related jibes that Adebayor got?

Knob heads will pick up on anything for bantz

Yebbut these days, I think they might get called out.

Hopefully?

Dunno big enough group of knobs together added with folk not wanting a kicking may well put folk off

If i was a PL footballer I'd come out for a laugh

Spend the match getting shit, id do cock sucking gestures to opposing fans and get my teammates to do orchestrated bumming goal celebrations

And the women's teams would let you in their changing rooms

See I disagree. Pointless calling someone Gay if they actually are. I find the obsession of finding the Gay footballer as weird as people being offended by it

Honestly, people don’t give a fuck any more x

Reckon the first one to come out will play the Camp-o role. 

Question 2 is an interesting one. My opinion over the years has definitely changed, moving into the category of finding homosexual/homophobic slurs offensive. Is this now a more common outlook or do some/most still see it as witty/ humorous?
