Women discuss misogyny experiences as football fans in new campaign

Chloe Watts and Ellie Scrivens share their experiences with misogyny as female football fans amid the campaign 'Her Game Too,' launched in May 2021. This initiative aims to combat sexism in sports and has expanded beyond football to include other sports. Watts reports that 58% of female sports fans have encountered sexism in social settings. Both women emphasize the need for supportive spaces for women in sports, highlighting local pubs' efforts to promote women's games. The campaign has contributed to increased interest and attendance in women's football following recent successes by teams like the Lionesses.
