Unfortunately, my favourite sport is rugby, and if I don't play it I become quite depressed. For those of you out of the loop, rugby culture is probably one of the most toxic out there.

Harsh initiations that generally border on sexual harassment/assault.

Tory boys.

Misogyny, homophobia, whatever, you name it, it's there.

As one of the new guys, and one of the youngest too, if I confront the club president about this shit, I suspect I will have my shit kicked in or get kicked out the team. If I take it higher than that, the club would simply cease to exist. They only just returned from a ban due to bad initiations.

What can I do? Am a bit of a minnow in a pond of big fuck off sharks.

    Yeah I know, I've dodged all initiations in 10 years of playing, but as far as the other stuff goes I'm at a loss.
