This has to be a parody. This can’t be real academic writing.
Reasearchers in the 50's said tobacco is harmless. What's your point?
>people going out to work as a team? LOL I BET THEY JUST WANT TO SHOWER TOGETHER
This is your brain on dog cum.
>Since one's participation in competition indicates one's commitment to phallic potency and one's defeat shows one's anal vulnerability and therefore phallic impotence, there is humiliation in defeat, in being penetrated by one's competitor. In his novel, Ancient Evenings, the infatuated student and lover of masculinity, Norman Mailer (1983), describes the humiliation of penetration, when the character Meni is penetrated by a male god: "The last of my pride was gone. . . . For I have never known more shame in the days that followed. . . . I was not like other men, although I felt more of a woman" (pp. 288-289). Being opened to the penetrations of phallic desire is feminizing, which in patriarchal culture is humiliating.
>Because the 'insult' of penetration is part and parcel of every competitive game, there are psychological strategies that help participants weather the denigration. It is called 'being a good sport.' Which is to say that one acknowledges defeat in the game, while refusing to acknowledge one's manifest feminization in the same. The expression, 'take defeat like a man,' means: maintain emotional closure; don't let it show that your phallic esteem, your phallic self-worth, has been penetrated, that your emotional vulnerabilities have been probed; there's always another game, another chance to show your phallic and anal power.
>Indeed, the ultimate defeat, which is to say the ultimate feminization, is to be seen crying at one's defeat - the only sport where such emotion is tolerated is the most feminine of sports, figure skating. Another sportsmanlike strategy is to deflect attention from one's defeat, from one's diminution, by admiring the phallic skill of the victor. This valorizes the phallic project by de-emphasizing the anal violation.
so baseball is the less gay of sports?

No shit. All contact sports are just excuses for disgusting homo shit.
