Author: The Telegraph November 21, 2024 Duration: 51:02

A bonus episode from the Telegraph's Women Sport podcast.


In this episode of the Telegraph Women’s Sport Podcast, we delve into the pervasive issue of sexism in sports. Join host Dame Laura Kenny as she opens up a crucial conversation with sport leaders and advocates who are championing gender equality. 


Our guests include Yvonne Harrison, Women In Football chief executive, and Dr Stacey Pope, a professor renowned for her work on gender and inequality in sports. 


Yvonne shares insightful perspectives on systemic sexism and the subtle language differences that perpetuate gender biases in sporting events. Stacey unveils her compelling research findings on entrenched misogyny among male football fans, emphasising the urgent need for cultural and institutional change.


We also hear from England cricketer Tammy Beaumont, who recounts her personal encounters with subtle and overt sexism, from ill-fitting men’s gear to harsh social media scrutiny driven by online betting culture.
