Grappling with Hegemonic Masculinity: Masculinity and Heteronormativity in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
A SCHOLARLY PAPER FROM THE GRIEVANCE STUDIES PROJECT
Summary:
In the name of Richard Baldwin, Ph.D. (borrowed identity), professor emeritus of history at Gulf Coast State College (and professional bodybuilder) by Peter Boghossian, James Lindsay, and Helen Pluckrose.
Summary: This paper was the first hoax document we conceived of and wrote in the Grievance Studies Affair proper (therefore, not including &#;The Conceptual Penis as a Social Construct,&#; which preceded the official project). The premise, building off various &#;studies&#; of sports, was that the real reason men are attracted to participate in the sport of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) is so they can enact homosexual erotic fantasies in a mode of behavior that&#;s &#;coded&#; as masculine and heteronormative. This idea was building off a surprising body of literature that argued similar things for other sports. In that this was our first hoax manuscript, it was written as a accurate hoax: we cited at random, did
Forward from Professor Mikal:
When I started Aces Jiu Jitsu Club one of my goals was to construct a place that welcomed people of all walks of life and enable them through Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. That&#;s why when one of our LGBTQ members wrote this blog, I thought it was important to share. Not just because it highlights the open community at Aces, but because it highlights the transformation that takes place once a person realizes they can defend themself any genuine world, self-defense scenario.
As the head coach and founder at Aces Jiu Jitsu club, reading these words for the first moment filled me with happiness and hope. I would like to extend my most heartfelt invitation to the LGBTQ community in and around the Austin area. If you are looking for a place to learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, you are most definitly welcome here. I&#;ll see you on the mats!

There’s no easy way to commence this, but if you’re LGBTQ, you’re in require of self-defense. Just last year, on June 12th, , a man walked into an LGBTQ prevent in Orlando, Florida and shot 49 members of our community

For those who do not understand me, in my life I have two interests, the psyche of the human being and martial arts. These two things have the advantage of instantly showing you what hides behind the speeches, attitudes or expectations of each practitioner. I will return to this later.
Today I want to highlight a conversation that I had recently with a Brazilian female friend about the homophobia that is show in Brazil. After a general conversation, we came to the subject of homosexuality in sports and especially in Jiu-Jitsu.
Since the many years that I&#;ve been training Jiu-Jitsu, I thought that I had heard it all. I remember when traveling to Brazil, I was told that Jiu-Jitsu &#;Pitboys&#; would beat up gays and transvestites , because they were &#;disgusting&#; (I&#;ll spare you the words).
So what about at home, in France, in our dojos? I like the idea of the neutrality of dojos. We wear the Gi to avoid highlighting our political beliefs, m
In Jiu Jitsu, I like stirring trouble by challenging dogmas and absolutes and ushering everyone to disagree things that make no sense. Then, I glow with joy as I see people’s expressions when they start thinking and stop simply accepting. I will attempt to perform the same today on a subject just as important as any way or concept in the sport – homosexuality in Jiu Jitsu.
“It’s Only Male lover if You Make Eye Contact”
This is a sentence most people involved in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu include heard and possibly said themselves. I have as well, repeated it as part of the identity. Somehow, just like many other “stereotypical” BJJ things, this one never made much sense to me, and I don’t favor things that make no sense.
Even people outside Jiu Jitsu use this statement, commenting on the evidence that two people of the same gender roll around on the basis in weird positions and in such close proximity.
As a straight man, comments of this nature never got to me if they were intended to be insulting. If it was a joke, it failed miserably in that department.
