受到女性主義運動、同志運動的影響，霸權式男性氣概面臨危機，男性研究也逐漸受到學界重視，男性氣概為動態的概念，不存在一個普世皆然或是本質的男性氣概基礎。本研究耙梳西方既有的男性研究、運動場域男性氣概研究以及臺灣既有相關研究。研究發現部分，首先，西方運動社會學論述已眾聲喧嘩，反思本質男性氣概之外；健康主義、新自由主義合謀下的休閒運動（消費）以及社交媒體展演均已是研究焦點。其次，儘管臺灣社會近年來休閒健身運動消費蔚為風潮，男性研究卻仍有待開展。相關研究尚主要聚焦社會結構對於個體（男性）菁英競技運動／休閒運動所產生的意義，仍以霸權式男性氣概的論述為主，認識論與方法論上的開拓與多樣性、多元男性氣概的書寫，均是相關研究者重要的未來展望。

It was believed that the hegemonic masculinity was no more the monolithic form of masculinity with the progress of feminism and LGBT social movements. Thus, there is not a universal or natural type of masculinity, masculinities are plural and dynamic concepts. Sociologists of sport argues that researchers shou be aware of those sport- related gender qualities and their gender implications. It is still important to focus on the constructions of masculinities in leisure sports. Men's study has been taken as an emerging research approach in western sport sociology. However, men's study was still at an initial stage in Taiwan's sport sociological academic filed. This study reviews the existing male studies in the West, the existing discourses on masculinity in the sports field, and the limitations of the existing research in Taiwan. It looks forward to the future with a qualitative perspective and examines the development of the gender discourse of male leisure sports in Taiwan. Based on the sporting experience of Taiwanese men, it reveals the gender implications embodied in its consumption and practice.
