The male & non-binary fearleading squad of Vienna Roller Derby.

With our beauty, grace and delicate style we bring joy and pleasure to the world of Roller Derby whilst tangling gender stereotypes when we hit the dancefloor.

Our Mission

As Fearleaders Vienna we support gender diversity and emancipation. We subvert gender stereotypes by turning them upside down and expose ridiculous and in the same way toxic masculine behaviour with overstatement and irony.

We want to set a strong statement for equality and fundamental rights for every person* in our society. We think that there is a need for men to not only choose a clear position when it comes to equality, but to also make a statement and fight side by side with the women* we support. Staying silent means accepting the status quo.

Fearleading for us means taking fear away. Especially from men. Fear of not being strong enough, not behaving manly enough, not performing masculine enough. We want to get rid of sexual repression, gender inequality, toxic masculinity, homophobia, transphobia, racism, FOMO and many other fears. We support awareness, sensitivity and respect.

Cheer diversity, fear nothing (but heteronormativity, bigotry and a lack of humour).

How to support us?

If you want to support our mission, like us on facebook and Instagram. Share our content and statements, make us bigger. And, of course, please buy our calendar!

Not only it’s perfect gift or a nice eyecatcher on your own walls, it also helps us to continue with what we started. It helps us to travel to other places and support Vienna Roller Derby when they play abroad and also to invest in new outfit parts (as they are very tiny, they tend to burst from time to time).

Even more fun is coming to one of our shows, being part of the Roller Derby community and coming to games and events.

Spread the word and Derby Love!

the fearelli

Growing up in the 90's was easy as pie – at least for white heterosexual men. The world was our oyster. You could win a woman's heart just by tuning up your car, there were only two genders, cat-calling was still a compliment, and our heroes were real heroes – with muscles and strength and dirty hands and guns and cigarettes and fists of steel and horses. Simple times for simple men.

Those images of masculinity influenced our coming of age and becoming the men* that we are in many ways. They shaped a whole generation and still influence the boys of today as they navigate the choppy waters of childhood and adolescence. But let’s be honest, all those qualities are nothing more than grotesque monuments of patriarchal swaggering and misuse.

It's time to reframe masculinity and these heroic images that so persistently lionize the stories of being a real man. Join us for twelve months of smashing and queering these images up, until we find something new and fruitful in them – something that can help us all grow.

A big shoutout to our photographers Franziska Liehl and Zoe Opratko
