Sex, aggression, and humour: responses to unicycling (2007) (nih.gov)

Fascinating. I wonder what drives the male aggression towards unicyclists. Is it a response to perceived competition (another male doing something attention-getting: must put them down to maintain my place in the male hierarchy)? Is it enforcing male norms of being "serious", conformist, etc?

This was a lot of fun! I’d like to think I’d be approving but who knows in the moment.
