María José Martínez Patiño
María José Martínez Patiño is a former Spanish athlete and current professor at the University of Vigo. Known for her groundbreaking advocacy for gender rights in sports, she gained notoriety in 1986 when a controversial sex verification test led to her exclusion from competition due to her intersex condition. After years of fighting for inclusion and rights for athletes with differences in sexual development (DSD), she has become a prominent voice against regressive policies in athletics, particularly those that threaten the integrity and inclusion of female athletes.
