ABSTRACT Raewyn Connell defines hegemonic masculinity as the most “honoured” way of being a man, and as such all men in patriarchal societies are expected to try to meet the standards of hegemonic masculinity (Connell and Messerschmitt 2005). It can be encountered in a variety of everyday contexts, one of which is sporting events. This article explores the authors’ ethnographic encounters with hegemonic masculinities amongst football fans in Zimbabwe, particularly in the songs they sing. Utilising Connell’s concept of hegemonic masculinity, the authors argue that Zimbabwean football fandom is entangled with hegemonic masculinities. The article demonstrates a simultaneously covert and subtle, but always complex, relationship between football fandom and masculinities, specifically hegemonic masculinity. The study’s major conclusion is that hegemonic masculinity is strongly discursive and occasionally occurs even in seemingly harmless mundane banter, such as stadium songs. Despite the sometimes jovial nature of these performances, there are power undercurrents involved.

一首歌里有什么?津巴布韦足球迷对霸权男子气概的建构

摘要劳温·康奈尔(Raewyn Connell)将霸权男性气质定义为成为男人的“尊荣”方式,因此,男权社会中的所有男性都应努力达到霸权男性气质的标准(Connell和Messerschmitt 2005)。它可以在各种日常情况下遇到,其中之一是体育赛事。本文探讨了作者在津巴布韦足球迷中关于霸权男性气质的人种志遭遇,特别是在他们演唱的歌曲中。作者利用康奈尔的霸权男性气概概念,认为津巴布韦足球迷与霸权男性气概纠缠在一起。这篇文章展示了足球迷与男子气概,特别是霸权男子气概之间同时隐秘而微妙但始终复杂的关系。这项研究的主要结论是,霸权男性气质具有强烈的话语性,甚至在看似无害的平凡戏ter(例如体育馆歌曲)中也偶尔出现。尽管这些表演有时具有欢乐的性质,但仍涉及动力暗流。
