In this study, by determining the thoughts of women footballers about their experiences in football fields; aims to reveal female footballers and social reactions, and to take steps towards solving the problems. A semi-structured interview form created by the researchers consisting of a total of five questions was used in the interviews with the female football players who are studying at the Physical Education and Sports Department. In the process of creating the questions in the interview forms, a literature review was conducted, and expressions describing the existing situation were included. As a result of the interviews, the concept of "hegemonic masculinity" formed our main theme. There are three sub-themes under the main theme of hegemonic masculinity, which are "negative discrimination, discourses, and expectation". These main and sub-themes that are determined contain various codes. In the light of the data obtained, it could be noted that female football players have not yet earned their rights adequately compared to male football players in 2020, and they have not, however, overcome the barriers of the male-dominated football world in the field and their social lives.
