This research is involved in constructing of gender identity in young men who live in environment that is traditionally considered as feminine (based on it's phonetic expression) ie research is dealing with football fans from Novi Sad who do not support Partizan and Red Star, the most successful serbian clubs, but Vojvodina, the most famous city club. The main focus of the paper is masculinity as the constitute of subclutural identity that is specially connected with the style and collective solidarity. It was conducted a couple of qualitative researches during the process of material collecting: analyses of the media and relevant theoretical resources, unstructured interviews, the opservation with the participation of various activities of the members of the group „Firma 1989“ and fun groups of clubs who played against Vojvodina in the reported period. The plenty of interpretations about masculine narratives in the literature, especially in the context of violence, is the proof of relevance of this problem in the world and in our society. The author argues that during the process of socialization of young men in an urban context, masculinity of fans as an exemplary model, could replace or supplement the lack of such model in the family or society, without necesarilly negative connotations.
