W artykule tym chciałbym przyjrzeć się obecności mężczyzn w dwóch dyscyplinach: pływaniu synchronicznym oraz gimnastyce artystycznej. Wydawać by się mogło, że pływanie synchroniczne oraz gimnastyka artystyczna łączą w sobie genderowe elementy męskie (wytrzymałość, siła, technika) z kobiecymi (gracja, estetyzacja ciała i jego ruchu). Obecnie są to jednak dyscypliny zdominowane przez kobiety i kojarzące się głównie z kobiecością. W niniejszym artykule zastanowię się nad przyczynami wykluczenia oraz społecznej dezaprobaty, z jaką spotykają się mężczyźni uprawiający analizowane przeze mnie dyscypliny sportowe. W analizie przyjmuję optykę teorii performatywności płci Judith Butler. Zgodnie z nią płeć jawi się jako konstrukt społeczno-kulturowy, wytwór powtarzalnych praktyk społecznych, które tworzą, można nawet powiedzieć - "produkują", jednostki zgodne z binarną, heteroseksualną matrycą. Oprócz analizy sportowego statusu obu dyscyplin, w tekście znajdują się także odwołania do filmów im poświęconych - "Allt Flyter" ("Wszystko płynie") w reżyserii Månsa Herngrena oraz "Men who swim" Dylana Williamsa.

The presence of women in "male" sports is becoming more common and accepted. The reverse situation applies to the participation of men in the "feminine" sports. In this article author analyzes the presence of men in synchronized swimming and rhythmic gymnastics, which disciplines are considered to be typically "feminine". Assuming, in line with the theory of Judith Butler that sport is one of the areas of social life which reproduce heterosexual matrix, the author examines the practices of men' exclusion in "feminine" sports.

Środki masowego przekazu wpływają na język odbiorców i pośrednio kształtują sposób postrzegania i rozumienia przez nich świata. Jednym z elementów wizerunku rzeczywistości jest obraz pojęcia mężczyzna. W reklamach prasowych mężczyzna najczęściej określany jest jako profesjonalista, partner seksualny, obiekt estetyczny, głowa rodziny i partner życiowy, "prawdziwy mężczyzna" oraz mężczyzna-marionetka w rękach kobiet. Męski bohater reklam powinien być przede wszystkim praktyczny, racjonalny, oszczędny i zadbany. Wydaje się, iż wykreowany przez media stereotyp mężczyzny ma duży wpływ na socjalizację płciową odbiorców. (abstrakt oryginalny)

The mass-media influences the language of the audiences and indirectly shape their way of perceiving and understanding the world. A conceptual image of man is one of the components of the picture of reality. In advertisements the man is most often you characterized as a professional, a sexual partner, an aesthetic object, the head of the family and partner in life, "a real man" and a puppet-man in women's hands. A man as the hero of advertisements should be first and foremost; practical, rational, thrifty and well-groomed. It seems probable that the stereotype of man created by the mass-media has a big influence on the sexual socialisation of audiences. (original abstract)

Study aim: To assess the effects of gender, age and engagement in physical activities of elderly subjects on their plasma lipid profiles.Material and methods: Four groups of subjects, n = 11 each, participated in the study: young men (YM) and women (YW), aged 25 - 32 years, and sedentary, elderly men (EM) and women (EW), aged 58 - 66 years; additionally, a group of 7 women (AW), aged 60 - 65 years, who trained twice weekly (45-min sessions) for 8 months, was studied. The following concentrations of lipids in plasma were recorded: triacylglycerols (TG), total cholesterol (TC) and its fractions: HDLC and LDLC (computed), as well as the TC/HDLC ratio.Results: Lipid profiles were, generally, less favourable in elderly than in younger subjects, high HDLC values noted in active, elderly women being an exception. In elderly subjects, men's profiles were closer to those of younger subjects than in elderly women and differed significantly (p<0.001) lower for TC and LDLC compared with EW group. Triacylglycerols were within normal limits in all groups except EW; LDLC values were mostly abnormally high, the percentages of subjects having normal values ranging from 0 (YM and EW) to 27% (YW).Conclusions: The age-dependent worsening of lipid profiles increased the risk of cardiovascular diseases in sedentary elderly subjects. On the other hand, the beneficial effects of motor activities on lipid profile observed in elderly women evidence the indispensability recommending of physical exercises to the elderly.

Study aim: to develop and estimate the validity of non-exercise methods to predict VO2max among young male conscripts entering military service in order to divide them into the different physical training groups. Material and methods: fifty males (age 19.7 ± 0.3 years) reported their physical activity before military service by IPAQ and SIVAQ questionnaires. Furthermore, Jackson’s non-exercise method was used to estimate VO2max. Body mass and height were measured, body mass index calculated and VO2max measured directly in a maximal treadmill test. Subjects were randomly divided into two groups. The results of the Group 1 (N = 25) were used to develop a regression equation to estimate VO2max. The results of the Group 2 (N = 25) were used to evaluate the validity of the developed non-exercise methods and Jackson’s non-exercise methods to estimate VO2max by Bland and Altman plot. The validity was further evaluated by comparing the results to 12-minute running test performed by 877 male conscripts (age 19.6 ± 0.2 years). Results: the developed models explained 68–74% of the variation in VO2max. Mean difference between directly measured and estimated VO2max was not significant, while Jackson’s method overestimated VO2max (p < 0.001). Both developed models were equally valid to divide conscripts into tertile group of fitness. However, 5% of the conscripts were classified into the highest fitness group based on both methods, but they were actually in the lowest fitness group based on a running test. Conclusion: in practice, these findings suggest that developed methods can be used as a tool to divide conscripts into different fitness groups in the very beginning of their military service.

The article discusses knowledge and reality. In his most important book, “The Metaphysics,” Aristotle wrote that all men, by nature want to know. They want to know the world itself and know themselves. This knowledge is present in the whole of human history. Some thought about the world is present, some thought about man is present.

Study aim: The purpose was to assess dietary intake of energy and selected nutrients and plasma lipid profile in young women and men with different levels of physical activity. Material and methods: The research included a total of 116 female and male students at the University of Physical Education who differed in their levels of physical activity. Analysis of the diets was based on 24-hour dietary interviews collected over 4 days prior to blood collection. Concentrations of total cholesterol (TC), HDL cholesterol (HDL-C), and triacylglycerol (TG) were measured in venous blood. In addition, the concentration of LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) and the ratios of TC / HDL-C and LDL-C/HDL-C were calculated. Results: Women, regardless of their physical activity levels, were characterized by a significantly higher concentration of total cholesterol in plasma (4.8 and 4.5 mmol/L, respectively - in training participants; 4.7 and 4.3 mmol/L, respectively - in non-training participants), although their dietary intake of cholesterol was significantly lower in comparison with the corresponding groups of men (282.0 and 484.7 mg, respectively - in training participants; 252.6 and 400.2 mg, respectively - in non-training participants). A trend toward a worse lipid profile of training women and men compared with the corresponding groups of non-training participants was also observed. Conclusions: Increased physical activity in the groups of training women and men was not a sufficient stimulus to induce positive changes in their lipid profiles. Nor can it be excluded that the observed differences were the result of diet, as dietary intake of cholesterol in the groups of training women and men was higher compared with the corresponding groups of non-training participants.

Introduction: Data on long-term patterns of weight change in relation to the development of metabolic syndrome (MetS) are scarce. The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of weight change on the risk of MetS in men. Material and Methods: Prospective longitudinal observation (17.9 ± 8.1 years) of apparently healthy 324 men aged 18–64 years. Metabolic risk was assessed in weight gain (⩾ 2.5 kg), stable weight (> −2.5 kg and < 2.5 kg) and weight loss (⩽ −2.5 kg) groups. Adjusted relative risk (RR) of MetS was analyzed using multivariate logistic regression. Results: The prevalence of MetS over follow-up was 22.5%. There was a strong relationship between weight gain and worsening of MetS components among baseline overweight men. Long-term increase in weight was most strongly related with the risk of abdominal obesity (RR=7.26; 95% CI 2.98–18.98), regardless of baseline body mass index (BMI). Weight loss was protective against most metabolic disorders. Leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) with energy expenditure > 2000 metabolic equivalent/min/week was associated with a significantly lower risk of MetS. Conclusions: Reducing weight among overweight and maintaining stable weight among normal-weight men lower the risk of MetS. High LTPA level may additionally decrease the metabolic risk regardless of BMI.

The dominant hierarchy upon which the order of existence is predetermined has placed the man at the centre of creation; which is also substantiated by cultural norms that prioritized generic divides. The principles of feminism have been created to alter patriarchal hegemony in order to reconstruct the distorted female self of an egalitarian society. However, in an attempt to reconstruct these misconceptions upheld by patriarchy, most feminist texts and criticisms have denied the woman the agency of freewill and independent choices, except the continuous emphasis on feminist objectification that patriarchy seem to propagate. It is against this backdrop, that this paper interrogates the subjugation of the woman by her fellow woman and to outline a model of feminist liberation. This is consequent upon the fact that even at the disruption of patriarchy, some feminist scholars have failed to account for the role of women in using men as puns in the subjugation of their fellow women in the African novel. Consequently, this paper replicates Chinweizu’s Masculinist Dissection of Matriarchy and uses feminist-deconstruction to interrogate Ama Ata Aidoo’s Changes and Nawal El Saadawi’s A Woman at point Zero. To this effect, it submits that women are stakeholders in the structure of matriarchy and the substructure of patriarchy and men are mere puns in the structure of matriarchal subjugation of their fellow woman. The concept of pun(s) which is play on word is used in its expounded form on how women manipulate men physically and psychologically for their economic and political gains.

The speech act of disagreement is one of the neglected areas of research in the Iranian context. This study seeks to investigate the ways in which this act is expressed by young male and female Persian speakers. To collect the data 100 participants (50 males, 50 females,) were selected randomly from among undergraduate and graduate students of University of Isfahan and Islamic Azad Universi ty (Najafabad branch) . The focus of this study was the role that gender and power might play in the employment of strategies to mitigate the threat of the act of disagreement. Students were asked to complete a discourse completion test (DCT) designed by the researcher. They were supposed to read nine situations, and react to them via making disagreements. Respondents were expected to disagree with three interlocutors with higher status, three peers and three with lower status. In order to analyze the utterances of disagreement, Muntigl and Turnbull's taxonomy (1998) was employed. The results revealed that although both males and females were concerned about the power status of interlocutors and try to apply the appropriate strategies while expressing their disagreements, females were more cautious.(original abstract)

Although the phenomenon of exclusion has been present in our reality for thousands of years, it only became the point of scientific interest a quarter of century ago. It seems a vital issue since it may concern any citizen in any of their walks of life. They may become financially excluded due to their educational background, income, financial status, nationality, sex or even lifestyle. In practice, excluded individuals are deprived of performing certain social activities despite their abilities or willingness to do so. This paper is aimed at identifying the awareness of issues concerning financial exclusion in a group of males in Poland. It provides the outcome of a survey held in a research group of 898 males on the topic of perceived financial exclusion. Moreover, the study elaborates on the determinants of financial exclusion in Poland, as well as individuals or whole social groups potentially at risk, in the opinion of the male respondents. The results enhance the wider knowledge of financial exclusion in Polish society. (original abstract)

One of the five cultural dimensions suggested by G. Hofstede, the dimension of masculinity and femininity, is very controversial. Defining cultures as feminine and masculine results in two issues. In the first, the content one, masculine cultures are characterized by "hard", instrumental values, whereas feminine cultures by "soft" values whose core is the quality of interpersonal relations. In feminine cultures gender differences disappear, however, with the increase in the masculinisation of culture, the differences in the range of gender values grow. The article is of cognitive character. It shows the results of the research concerning the values and basic objectives in the range of dimensions of masculinity and femininity carried out in Polish and Ukrainian organizations.

In the context of enhancement discourses and strategies in Western societies, health is conceived and advertised as a "product7' which can be acquired, or at least enhanced, by buying the right products and adopting the right behaviour, among other things by being physically active. In spite of the well-documented benefits of recreational physical activities and the constant flow of advice on health matters, a considerable percentage of the populations in Western countries does not participate in sport (defined in a broad sense). Sports participation, i.e. number of participants as well as the duration, intensity and type of activity, differs to a considerable extent in the various regions and countries of the world, and also in Europe. In this article I will share information about the prevalence of recreational physical activities in Europe with a focus on gender and youth. The available information reveals large gender differences. As a rule, girls are less physically active than boys. In the second part of the article, I will discuss theoretical approaches, e.g. to gender and socialisation, which offer insights into and an understanding of gendered sporting habits, tastes and practices.

Rodzina jest podstawową grupą społeczną, występującą we wszystkich społeczeństwach, epokach i formacjach społecznych. Jest to społeczność szczególna, która w życiu społeczeństwa spełnia kilka podstawowych funkcji. Najważniejsze z tych funkcji to: prokreacja - zapewniająca ciągłość biologiczną społeczeństwa; socjalizacja - służąca wprowadzeniu młodego pokolenia w normy i mechanizm życia zbiorowego i przygotowania go do samodzielnego pełnienia ról społecznych; utrzymanie ciągłości kulturowej społeczeństwa przez przekazywanie dziedzictwa kulturowego następnym pokoleniom; prowadzenie gospodarstwa domowego i działanie w charakterze jednostki produkcyjnej np. w rolnictwie; organizowanie życie swoich członków, wykonywanie kontroli społecznej nad ich zachowaniem, zapewnienie im równowagi emocjonalnej, pomocy wzajemnej i opieki. Rodzina jest kategorią historyczną zmieniającą się z upływem czasu, uzależnioną od typu społeczeństwa, epoki historycznej, ustroju społecznego, poziomu cywilizacji, panującego ustawodawstwa i wielu innych procesów histerycznych. Rodzina jest komórką społeczną silnie zespoloną z całym społeczeństwom, jego systemem wartości i zadaniami. Celem artykułu jest określenie pozycji i roli mężczyzny w strukturze współczesnej rodziny, w oparciu o wyniki badania wybranej grupy warszawskich rodzin. Pozycji społecznej jednostki przypisuje się zwykle określony zespół praw i obowiązków, z którym wiąże się określony zespół ról społecznych.

Objective of the paper is to define the position and status of a male in a family on the ground of the results of an inquiry on a selected group of Warsaw families. The inquiry proved, that still more frequently interfamily relationships are partnership by nature, and the positions of particular family members are divided in the way, which promotes their development and the development of the family as a whole. The inquiry showed, that male is not the most important person in the family, however, he is a partner, particularly to his wife. This concerns especially mutual relationship of spouses, emotional links between husband and wife, and the methods of making important decision in families. Both, husband and wife have equal control over their children. There occur different arrangements of positions for various aspects of family functioning. In the aspect of financial maintenance the position of a male is of greater consequence than that of a female, Moreover, males more frequently enjoy high socio-economical status at the place of work, are more burdened and preoccupied with their social and economical activities than females. The sphere of household functioning was principally controlled by females. However, in general - patterns of family life of the inquired marriages were modified when compared with their parental families towards more egalitarian division of positions in the family, which was the result of changes of the places of residence, higher education levels, economical activity of wives and increase of total culture level in the society.

It would be mention that bilingualism can be defined in different ways. For example, Maleki (2011) asserted that individual level includes consecutive or simultaneous learning which involves the content of achievement, ability, language competence and proficiency. However, social level contains complex phenomena of minority and migrants and focuses some matters like domain and diglossia. These are useful in interpreting the various ways that linguistic resources are organized in multilingual communities. In these communities, there are some phenomena like transfer, borrowing, code switching and interference. The current study seeks to examine the effects of the role of shyness in English proficiency level of Bilingual EFL Learners in Komijan (in the province of Markazi) and Monolingual EFL learners in Arak (in the province of Markazi). The number of subjects were 98 and all of them were male .The age range of learners was 12 to 15. Thus, Revised Cheek and Buss Shyness Scale (RCBS) was used to measure the shyness level of both bilingual and monolingual learners. Results of the One-way ANOVA indicated that different level of shyness was not significant among bilingual and monolingual learners. It also indicated that bilingual students outperformed monolingual students in General English Proficiency. (original abstract)

Udział mężczyzn wśród pracowników socjalnych w Polsce jest bardzo niski. Możemy mówić o niezwykle wysokiej feminizacji tego zawodu. Podobnie jest w przypadku osób studiujących pracę socjalną. Tendencja ta występowała również w przeszłości na niższych poziomach kształcenia zawodowego, zarówno w okresie tzw. socjalizmu państwowego, jak i po 1989 r. Odsetek pracowników socjalnych płci męskiej w Polsce jest znacznie niższy niż w takich krajach, jak Niemcy, Anglia, Irlandia czy USA, gdzie mężczyźni stanowią około jednej piątej zasobów ludzkich pomocy społecznej. Z kolei spośród niektórych kategorii klientów pomocy społecznej mężczyźni stanowią zdecydowaną większość. Stąd postulat "męskiej pracy socjalnej" i poszukiwania dróg zwiększenia udziału mężczyzn w profesjonalnym dostarczaniu pomocy. (abstrakt oryginalny)

The share of men among Polish social workers is very low - it can be talked about the high feminization rate of this profession. A similar underrepresentation of men is observed among the students of social work in Poland. This tendency was also present at lower levels of social work education in the past, in the times of so-called "state socialism" but also after the 1989. The comparison of the proportion of male social workers in Poland with other countries (Germany, England, Ireland, USA) shows a signifi cant difference, as in these countries, men's employment share in social welfare agencies is about one-fi fth. On the contrary, among certain categories of social assistance recipients men account for the vast majority. Hence, the paper postulates "male social work" and the search for ways to increase male participation in the professional delivery of social assistance. (original abstract)

Praca ta ma na celu zarysowanie pozycji zajmowanej przez grupy mężczyzn z prorównościowych organizacji podczas dyskusji odwołujących się do tematu równości płci. Dyskusja odnosi się do przypadków Men Engage Europe i Maschile Plurale, dwóch luźno zorganizowanych grup mężczyzn, które wspierają równouprawnienie płci na różne sposoby, na poziomie ponadnarodowym Unii Europejskiej, a także odwołując się do realiów panujących we włoskich miastach. Część głosów obu organizacji została zebrana podczas dwóch częściowo ustrukturyzowanych wywiadów przeprowadzonych w ramach mojej pracy doktorskiej. Praca argumentuje, że mężczyźni popierający równouprawnienie płci próbują uczestniczyć w feminizmie z trudnej pozycji "cichych" podmiotów. Mówiąc dokładniej, twierdzę, że podejście "siostrzanego ruchu" w feminizmie prowadzi do nadrzędnych dyskusji na temat równości płci, w których pozycja mężczyzny jest niewypowiedziana. Opierając się na tych przesłankach, staram się przedstawić pewne refleksje na temat tego, co zostało osiągnięte i co być może zagubiło się w tym procesie.(abstrakt oryginalny)

This paper sets off to outline some reflections on the subject position occupied by pro-equality men's groups within overarching discourses of gender equality. Discussion makes reference to the cases of Men Engage Europe and Maschile Plurale, two loosely organized networks of men that support gender equality in different ways at the EU supranational-level and the Italian national-level respectively. Fragments of the voices of these organizations were gathered during two semi-structured interview conducted in the context of my doctoral fieldwork. This paper argues that men supporting gender equality attempt to participate in feminism from the difficult position of 'unspoken' subjects. More specifically, I argue that the tension between narrative of inclusion and narratives of 'sisterhood' within feminism produce overarching discourses of gender equality in which men's subject position is unspoken. Based on these premises, I attempt to offer some reflections on what is gained and what is perhaps lost in the process.(original abstract)
