From the Sunday Times today. A very interesting read from the Magazine section about the sexism faced by female surfers, and the homophobia faced by lesbians - a champion surfer interviewed lost 3 of her 4 sponsors after coming out in 2008.
These women are doing great work, but it's so grim to read about the attitudes of the men in the sport. I also found it refreshing to have an article about a sport where women in their late 30s and early 40s are still competing professionally.
