At the request of the Dutch government, a group of researchers looked into the experiences of gay men and lesbians in organized, nonprofessional sports. The principal finding was that gay men and lesbians do not experience much discrimination. This circumstance results from the invisibility and silencing of homosexuality in athletics, both by sports organizations and by gay men and lesbians themselves. But in those sports where lesbians have become open about their sexuality, especially in soccer, they do encounter a high level of discrimination. Gay men, on the other hand, have not become visible in any sport. Several suggestions are offered on how to open up sports for lesbians and gay men.
应荷兰政府的要求，一组研究人员调查了男同性恋者和女同性恋者在有组织的非职业体育活动中的经历。主要发现是，男同性恋者和女同性恋者并未遭受太多歧视。这种情况是由于体育界（包括体育组织以及男同性恋者和女同性恋者自身）对同性恋的忽视和压制。但在女同性恋者公开其性取向的运动项目中，尤其是足球领域，她们确实遭遇了高度的歧视。另一方面，男同性恋者在任何运动项目中都未公开亮相。文中就如何让体育界接纳女同性恋者和男同性恋者提出了若干建议。
