Through extensive interviews with male athletes aged 15-22 in the U.S. and U.K., this book examines the evolving concept of heterosexuality among jocks. It highlights how contemporary athletes challenge traditional norms and express themselves without the fear of being labeled gay, marking a significant shift in attitudes compared to previous generations. The work sheds light on the intersection of sports, identity, and sexuality, offering a fresh perspective on masculinity in modern athletic culture.
