 E-Mail COLUMBUS, Ohio - Nearly nine out of 10 Americans say they enjoy sports at least a little, but heterosexual men more commonly identify as passionate sports fans, a new study suggests. A survey of nearly 4,000 American adults found that only 11% said they did not identify as sports fans at all. Over 40% were passionate fans, identifying themselves as being quite a bit or very much so sports fans. About 60% of heterosexual men in the survey identified as passionate sports fans, compared to about 40% of both heterosexual women and lesbians. About 30% of gay men reported being passionate sports fans. We found that U.S. adults respond overwhelmingly that they are sports fans, said Chris Knoester, co-author of the study and associate professor of sociology at The Ohio State University.
