The purpose of this article is twofold: to capture the injustice inherent in the gendered bifurcation of baseball and softball via the prism of critical feminist sport studies; and to begin to imagine a girl-friendly/women-and trans-inclusive future for baseball that is less fertile for cooptation into post-911 United States security state discourses. In this article I link the "unthinkability" of the occupational segregation of baseball in North America to the dominance of the ideology of the two sex system and European disasporic morality. To illustrate the extent of this occupational segregation via the gendered bifurcation of baseball and softball, I draw on feminist sport studies to examine the exemplars or "texts" of three Canadian brother/sister baseball softball duos: Jason Bay and Lauren Bay Regula; Brett and Danielle Lawrie; and Mathew and Katie Reyes.

机译:本文的目的是双重的:通过批判的女权运动研究来捕捉棒球和垒球在性别上的分歧,这是固有的。并开始想象棒球的女孩友好型/女性跨性别的未来,因为它不适合被纳入911后美国安全国家的讨论范围。在本文中,我将北美棒球职业隔离的“不可思议性”与两性体系意识形态和欧洲厌世道德的主导地位联系起来。为了通过棒球和垒球的性别分叉来说明这种职业隔离的程度,我参考女权运动研究来研究三个加拿大兄弟姐妹姐妹垒球二人组的榜样或“文字”:Jason Bay和Lauren Bay Regula; Brett和Danielle Lawrie;以及Mathew和Katie Reyes。
