“…The term 'hooking up' typically describes a casual, non-committed heterosexual encounter involving physical or sexual intimacy (Bogle, 2008). Research over the last two decades has shown that most students engage in sexual behavior during college (Garcia et al, 2012;Grello et al, 2003;Reese-Weber et al, 2020). A national study of college students from 19 universities found that 72% of participants reported engaging in at least one hook-up while in college (Hamilton & Armstrong, 2009).…”

Conformity to masculine norms has been connected to high-risk behaviors among college students, including sexual behavior. Research suggests that sport participation reinforces masculinity and predicts acceptance of sexually aggressive attitudes and behaviors, which may be a precursor to sexual violence. However, little is known about conformity to masculine norms and sexual behavior within the context of sport. This study examined the association between conformity between masculine norms (i.e., dominance, success and winning, risk-taking, and violence) and attitudes toward sexual behavior. The final analyzed sample included a total of 547 undergraduate students who compete in collegiate or community-based sport. Results from the ordinary least squares regression analysis indicated participants with greater acceptance of dominance, risk-taking, and violence had greater attitudes toward sexual behavior. Males reported greater attitudes toward sexual behavior than females. Implications from this study underscore the need to promote positive masculinity and healthy sexual relationships with a unique subculture of college students.
