You Want to Know How Men in Roles Traditionally Deemed

You want to know how men in roles traditionally deemed "women's roles" are treated, and how this compares to the treatment of men in traditionally "masculine" roles. You volunteer as an assistant to the coed cheerleading squad so that you can get an insider's view of the way the female cheerleaders interact with the male cheerleaders as well as the way they interact with the football players. Which method are you using to collect your data? Will your data be qualitative or quantitative? Basic or applied? Explain your answers.
