Thus, a specter haunts the University's football team. Our nickname and our logo are both symbols of the gay and lesbian movement. No, not football players. The general consensus at the time, by students, was that these football players were straight but had, for some reason, been deprived of women and had been led astray. This can be used as an example of what happens when the system of subjugation is confronted.
Football is a device of male dominance.
If our football players can be dominated by their fellow teammates, then they can be dominated by the opposing team. The existence of an openly gay football player would necessarily call into question the team's dominance. Ka Leo O Hawai'i . All rights reserved.
