Ah the sweet atmosphere of the football stadiums and its language more flowery than the gardens of Babylon!… As if these gentlemen, whether they are supporters or players, have a concern with their masculinity. Some might say it's part of folklore, but in reality it's not a party for everyone. Yoann Lemaire, former Ardennes footballer, paid the price in 2010 when his club dismissed him following his coming out.
