It's all about how yin and yang perceive the sport. If it were all about men's interest there would be harsh words of verbal interaction. However, since figure skating is more on the women's side it tends to have sensitivity as an issue.
I don't think that's a fair assessment... at least not what I've seen. Football players that have big mouths get a lot of flack too. Sportsmanship is held very high in men's sports too. They can puff up so long as they are still respectful (ala Evan's statement on the news of the retirements... now if he could show that respect to Johnny and get it in return it'd be perfect lol). Hockey might be different, but the sports I grew up with have unstated rules on how one behaves.
