On the face of it, women's sport is on the rise, garnering more
attention and grassroots involvement than ever before. However, the
truth is that in many respects progress is stalling, or even
falling back. Sharron Davies is no stranger to battling the routine
sexism the sporting world. She missed out on Olympic Gold because
of blatant doping among East German athletes in the 1980s, and has
never received justice. Now, biological males are being allowed to
compete directly against women under the guise of trans 'self-ID',
a development that could destroy the integrity of female sport.
This callous indifference towards women in sport, argue Sharron and
journalist Craig Lord, is merely the latest stage in a decades-long
history of sexism on the part of sport's higher-ups. A strong
fightback is required to root out the lingering misogyny that
plagues sporting governance, media coverage and popular
perceptions. This book provides the facts, science and arguments
that will help women in sport get the justice they deserve.
