• An Integrative Review of Women, Gender, and Leisure: Increasing Complexities (2013, background): “Older women (e.g., Havitz, 2007; Janke, Nimrod, & Kleiber, 2008; Liechty & Yarnal, 2010) made up about 10% of the sample compared to 7% who were girls or young women (i.e., under age 23; e.g., Barnett, 2007; Schmalz & Kerstetter, 2006).”
• Gender and Emotions (2014, background): “Boys who participate in alleged girls’ sports (skating or gymnastics) might be labeled “girlie girls” (Schmalz and Kerstetter 2006) and girls who play alleged boys’ sports (like rugby) might be labeled “lesbians” (Ezzell 2009), which might evoke embarrassment and foster strategies to manage it.”
• Gender, Sexual Prejudice and Sport Participation: Implications for Sexual Minorities (2009, background): “The sport context mirrors the ideals of compulsory heterosexuality, as heteronormative gender boundaries are powerful regulators of both attitudes and behaviors (Gill et al. 2006; Griffin 1998; Lenskyi 1994; Schmalz and Kerstetter 2006; Shaw and Hoeber 2003).”
