Yoann Lemaire, a 41-year-old former footballer, himself homosexual, has been working since 2016 with his association Foot ensemble to raise awareness among young footballers against discrimination. Lemaire: "The subject of homophobia is very taboo, very delicate with them.
Especially since these are boys who have only been among themselves for years" "There is an ambient virilism, a lot of toxic masculinity, sexism, this idea of always having something to prove as a man," says Lemaire.
