Why is it such a personal offense to lose to a woman? This week, Shaunna and Lisa discuss gender and sport and the masculine urge to outperform women. Drawing from a recent news article in which a man killed his female competitor for beating him in basketball, the team unpacks what undergirds this kind of reaction.Discussing words and phrases like "chick" and "being chicked,” Lisa and Shaunna talk about the cultural narratives that infantilize, or in the case of “chick,” dehumanize women. Understanding masculinity, toxic or otherwise, in the context of sport shows us how men’s reaction to losing to women is more than individual pride.***If requiring a transcript, please email [email protected]*** **Support the Podcast** InsideTracker: Get 20% off at insidetracker.com/feistyOrca: Use code IRONWOMEN15 for 15% off at www.orca.com/Hammerhead: Get a FREE heart-rate monitor with the purchase of a Hammerhead Karoo 2.
