Description:Sports - from volleyball to softball; from ice hockey to Martina - are as central to lesbian social and cultural life as bars and discos are to gay men. The playing field is where lesbians meet, where they socialize, and where they express who they are.SportsDykes explores, defines, and celebrates the lesbian sports experience. From serious investigative journalism to works of lyrical fiction, the life of the "girl jock" is vividly revealed in the thirty-one pieces collected here. They cover the politics of sports, the homophobia of many collegiate and elite teams, the personal empowerment women have achieved through sports, the sheer joy of the game and the zest of competition, and the steamy eroticism that lesbian sports can generate.Included are pieces by syndicated journalist Victoria Brownworth, former basketball star Mariah Burton Nelson, columnist Alisa Solomon, coach Pat Griffin, novelists Jenifer Levin and Leslea Newman, GirlJock founder Roxxie, erotic novelist Robbi Sommers, and cartoonists Kris Kovick and Michelle Kort, among others.SportsDykes is tough, funny, unique, and sexy - just like sports dykes themselves.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
