Abstract

This article explores the reconstruction about the learning of masculinity(ies) with a group of young people, focusing on the role that sport and physical activity have in the constitution-regulation of their bodies. The experiences of the boys interviewed in this research give us a perspective about the multiple contradictions, complexities and negotiations of masculine identities in relation to dominant discourses on gender and sexuality that are linked to sport.
