This document summarizes Deborah Cameron's 1998 study on the language used by five young heterosexual men when talking about sports. Cameron analyzed their conversation to understand how they constructed heterosexual masculinity through talk. She found that they used both cooperative and competitive language. They cooperated by building rapport through latching on to each other's words and jointly producing discourse. However, they also competed for dominance in the conversation. The men established a shared identity by categorizing a gay classmate as the antithesis of a man and gossiping about him. Their language use both reinforced solidarity and sought social status within the group.

what were painful racially conflicted chapters in its national history;
(Others think that race and ethnicity are unrelated to their own lives and
should be the concern of those in barrios, ghettos, and ethnic studies pro-
grams. Wome worry about race and ethnicity but avoid talking about
them for fear of being thought racist.IYet others think that even noticing
race and ethnicity is wrong and that these concepts should not be taken
into account when someone is deciding how to interact with another
person.{Still others believe that U.S. Americans have not begun to talk
seriously about these topics and that no one can understand society with-
out analyzing how race and ethnicity are linked and deeply intertwined
with wealth, status, life chances, and well-being in general.
Given the wide range of possible reactions, we might ask, Why are
race and ethnicity so central to our lives and at the same time so difficult
and taboo?
In this essay, the authors propose an understanding of race and ethnic-
ity that, at first, may be hard to accept.tC~ntrary to what most people
believe, race and ethnicity are not things that people have or are. Rather,
they are actions that people do. 1l'R;ce and ethnicity are social, historical,.
and philosophical processes that people have done for hundreds of years
and are still doing. IThey emerge through the social ·transactions that
take place among different kinds of people, in a variety of institutional
structures (e.g., schools, workplaces, government offices, courts, media),
over time, across space, and in all kinds of situations.
Our framework for understanding them draws on the work of schol-
ars of race and ethnicity around the world, including professors asso-
ciated with the Center for Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity
(CCSRE) at Stanford University. Over the past several decades, the topics
ofrace and ethnicity have become increasingly central to the research and
theorizing of sociologists, psychologists, and h~rians as well as schol-
ars in the humanities, the law, and education.lPsychologists most often
focus on why people stereotype others and on the multiple negative out-
comes for those who are the target of these stereotypes (e.g., Baron and
Banaji 2006; Dovidio, Glick, and Rudman 2005; Eberhardt and Fiske
1998; Jones 1997; Steele 1992), while sociologists often concentrate on
racism as a system of beliefs that justifies the privilege of the dominant

• The Antithesis of Man
• Cooperation
• Competition
• Deconstructing Oppositions
• Conclusion
• Q&A/ Discussion
3. Introduction
Generalizations about men’s talk:
Competitive
Hierarchically organized
Centers on impersonal topics
Exchange of information
Speech genres: joking, trading insults and sports statistics
4. Introduction
• “As active producers rather than passive
reproducers of gendered behaviour, men and
women may use their awareness of the
gendered meanings that attach to particular
ways of speaking and acting to produce a
variety of effects (272).”
MEN WOMEN
Competitive
Report talk
Cooperative
Rapport talk
5. Data & Method
• Al, Bryan, Carl, Danny, and Ed
• White, middle-class American suburbanites,
aged 21, same university, same social network
• Watching sports at home on TV
• Conversation analysis
6. The Antithesis of Man
• Bryan: uh you know that really gay guy in our Age
of Revolution class who sits in front of us? He wore
shorts again, by the way, it’s like 42 degrees out, he
wore shorts again [laughter]
• Ed: [that guy]
• Bryan: it’s like a speedo, he wears a speedo to class
(.) He’s got incredibly skinny legs you know=
• Ed: [it’s worse] =you know
like those shorts women volleyball players wear? It’s
like those (.) it’s like
7. The Antithesis of Man
• Establishing shared views: categorizing people
as gay
→participation framework (C. Goodwin 1986)
• Resembling ‘women’s talk’
• Gossip: “affirming the solidarity of an in-group
by constructing absent others as an out-group
(276).”
8. Cooperation
• Ed: he’s I mean he’s like a real artsy fartsy fag he’s
like (indeciph) he’s so gay he’s got this like really
high voice and wire rim glasses and he sits next to
the ugliest-ass bitch in the history of the world.
• Ed: [and
• Bryan: [and they’re all hitting on her too, like four
• Ed: [I know it’s like four homos hitting on
her
• Bryan: guys [hitting on her
9. Cooperation
• Markers ‘like’ ‘you know’
• Latching and simultaneous speech
→joint production of discourse (cooperation)
10. Competition
• Ed & Bryan: dominant speakers
• Al & Carl: fewer and shorter turns
• Danny: variable
• Ed introduced the topic, attempted to keep
‘ownership’
• Danny interrupted, contradicted; began the
gossip
• “even if the speakers… compete, they are
basically engaged in a collaborative and solidary
enterprise (279).”
11. Competition
• A different analysis:
→verbal duelling
• How do we decide?
→the problem with ‘competitive’ vs. ‘cooperative’
12. Deconstructing Oppositions
• “Conversation can and usually does contain both
cooperative and competitive elements (279).”
• Agreement, respect, and support→cooperation?
• Women’s talk
• “It is gender-stereotyping that causes us to miss or
minimize the status-seeking element in women
friends’ talk, and the connection-making dimension
of men’s (280).”
13. Conclusion
• ‘performative gender work’
• “Men and women do not live on different planets,
but are members of cultures in which a large
amount of discourse about gender is constantly
circulating (280).” →Gender Knot (Johnson 1997)
• Gender is a relational term
• “In these speakers’ understanding of gender, gay
men, like women, provide a contrast group
against whom masculinity can be defined (281).”
14. Conclusion
• “It is impossible to ‘transcend’ ideology, but it is
not impossible for language and gender scholars
to be reflexive about the cultural resources that
have shaped their own understandings, as well
as the understandings of the people whose
language use they study (Cameron 2003:465,
emphasis in original).”
15. Q&A/ Discussion
• How might the results of analysis turn out
differently if we observe different data?
• What if we use quantitative approach to examine
our conversation? What would be your focus?
• Think about all the ‘a-ha moments.’ What
exactly do they reveal (ideologically)?
• Can we venture into ‘linguistic relativity’ in
terms of gender? (Deutscher 2013: 209-232)
Fully aware; what it means to do this, what it means to do that; choosing some linguistic features or strategies over others in accordance to their expected gender roles
What caught her attention in the first place was this. She found that besides the common themes (sports, women, wine) they were talking about…
Establishing mutual knowledge about sth that all the listeners can relate to involves them into the talk. Failure to make such alignment or contribution not ratified exclude the person
Like you’re talking, I’m talking, and we just build up on each other; one point to cooperation
Do all these point to cooperation? Is women’s talk all about cooperation? Building good relationship with each other. Gain status by display the above, if you watch Scream Queens as I do lol
Present themselves as gendered beings, behaviors or speech should be appropriate to their sex. Consider other settings, influence how they perform gender AND how we see their performance; they’re not talking about women and there are no women so they orient toward sth else; contrast meet the standards, reinforce their own masculine image; different when it comes to their favorite basketball playerss
