The purpose of this study has been to find out and understand adolescents thoughts and feelings about the Swedish subject Physical Education and Health. I wanted to get a better understanding about adolescents that don’t participate in the subject for various reasons. Two of my issues were: What are the reasons that participating and not participating students hate every second of the Swedish subject Physical Education and Health? How would students like to see the content of physical education? To find this out, I used qualitative interviews as a method. I have interviewed a total of eleven students in grade eight at an elementary school in southern Sweden. As analytical tools I have used theories drawn from John Dewey, Thomas Ziehe, Pierre Bourdieu and Mikael Londos. My results shows that students who don´t participate in the subject, don´t feel bad or hate it. They interpret the topic as unnecessary and a hassle. According to Ziehe, we need to take what adolescents consider important seriously. Dewey says that we must take account of the students habits, capabilities and interests, as she should know and learn the meaning of the selected activities to develop. Bourdieu says that the male dominance subordinates women. The consequences of male dominance in the gym results in that girls more often become passive or completely opt out of the subject. It is the male dominance that is the fundamental problem.
