Like
football, football fandom is a gendered field dominated by men. To understand
the experience and of fans and their place in this place helps us reveal
different fandom identities aside from accepted male dominant fandom
identities, thus it helps to understand the field as a whole. In this aspect
the aim of this study is analyzing place of the women in fandom by researcing
doxas causing their marginalization. As a result of our qualitative research
that include interviews held to 8 women fans of sport clubs two themes emerged.
First one is Fandom as a Masculine Field, second one is Doxas of Field: To Be
Like ‘Men’ for Accepted. In first theme we discuss how fandom creates a social
field and which elements creates the masculanity of this field, in second theme
we review what kind of things are expected from women to be accepted in this
field. As a result of the study it reveals that women deal with hardship to get
acceptance as a real fans, their knowledge is constantly questioned, and they
get approval if they string along with men and accept sexism.
