Abstract
While no one can deny the rich history of girls and women in sport, they continue to face obstacles to their full participation and representation in mixed-sex sport environments. Sex integration in sport is often contentious for those female athletes who participate in sports traditionally played by men, such as ice hockey. We do not know enough about the lived experiences of girls and women who navigate these gendered sport spaces. With this in mind, this study qualitatively explored how seven female ice hockey athletes negotiate their identities as female athletes, in such a way that focuses on the social constructions of gender and sexuality. Findings of this study highlight the tensions and contradictions of being a female athlete in a traditionally male sport and the rigid categories used by the women interviewed in negotiating their gendered and sexual identities while playing on male ice hockey teams.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
