To begin, my research participants are going to be non-dancers that are males.  I first wanted to research male dancers and non-dancers that are males but then I realized that was answering more questions than I need for this specific research.  I want to figure out why men feel threatened by male dancers and feel the need that they need to ridicule them. 

I think it is going to be easy to find my participants.  I already thought of a few people that have trouble with the idea of men dancing that I may want to interview.  I will state in my methodology section that I chose men who believe other men should not dance.  I want around 3 participants to try and understand their thinking.  If I had more than a fifteen page report, I may want to figure out more people to research. 

The only danger in my report is that men will reveal their identity about not believing in male dancing.  I want to protect their identity by not using their name and just using their ideas.  I just want to figure out how I should set up my methods section.  I will look at examples online to see how others write their methods section.
