Late teens/early twenties men are extremely immature, speaking from experience. What they say about girls being 7-8 years ahead of guys in maturity is absolutely true. So you're talking about a group of kids with adult bodies and the brain maturity of 13 year olds fueled by testosterone crammed into a locker room/bus/hotel. Yeah, it was never any wonder why hockey was/is what it was like off the ice growing up tbh.

Still no place for homophobia, humiliation or abuse. But often times the adults are more focused on the game itself to even care, let alone police what goes on.

This is exactly why we need the people in positions of power and authority in the game to educate themselves on these matters.
