    Abstract [en]

    In this study I’ve been taking a closer look at the members of the gay team, Malmo Devilants and their former sports experience, background in sports, and examined how they construct their team. To achieve this, interviews were made with six of the members who were asked to answer questions based on three themes: background in sports, daily life in the team, and the role of sport in their lives. By using the theoretical concepts of gender and heteronormativity, I have analyzed the answers. Based on the interviews I could see that the members all have different experiences of sport and that everyone has some form of previous sporting background. They also see their team as a place where the heteronormativity isn’t the prevailing norm, where members can meet like-minded individuals with similar experiences and thus become one of the crowd. By exercising an activity such as sports challenge the stereotype of how a gay man is and the members do not maintain the division that is significance for heteronormativity. The gender system and heteronormativity with its ideals of how to be to qualify as a “real” man/woman is a limitation that does not really need to exist. The more the norm and the system dissolves our notions of what is considered male or female will probably decrease.
