Woman Accused of Being a Man

Sexism at its peak as the Federation of African Football (CAF) demand that Genoveva Anonma, Equatorial Guinea Striker take off all her clothes infront of all officials of CAF and the Equatorial Guinea team. She says, "these accusations come because I am fast and strong, but I know that I am definitely a woman. I was hoping they would call me to tell me they were taking me to hospital to so tests, but they never did. They did nothing to me. It was just down to me alone to defend myself to state that I am not a man, I am a woman."

The consequence, she's moving away to play for either France or Germany.

Gender testing in sport remains highly controversial, but could the officials have requested her to proof her gender by other means?
