Ana Peleteiro, on egg freezing in the national team: "What if the 'feminist' measure was actually deeply sexist?"

Ana Peleteiro questions whether a proposed 'feminist' measure, specifically, the freezing of eggs for female athletes in the national team, is potentially deeply misogynistic. The article explores the controversy surrounding this policy, which aims to support women's reproductive health but has sparked debate over its underlying assumptions and implications for gender equality. Peleteiro suggests that such policies might inadvertently reinforce traditional gender roles rather than challenge them. The discussion highlights tensions between feminist goals and unintended consequences in sports policy.
