Said Sharron Davies, who won a silver medal swimming in the 1980 Moscow Olympics, when the East Germans used drugs that were the equivalent of “putting girls through male puberty."

Quoted in "Sharron Davies: ‘The trans debate is toxic. It’s made my life hell. But female athletes must speak up’/The former swimmer, still driven by the injustice of not winning 1980 Olympic gold, wants an uprising from athletes to ensure swimming’s transgender ban extends to all sports" (London Times).

At the Moscow Olympics... East Germany claimed 90 per cent of the women’s swimming medals. “And nobody did anything,” she says, incensed. “I have friends who came fourth in the Moscow Games and no one ever has heard their names. The reason I am so vocal is I could not sit by and let that happen again.”...

[T]hose East Germans with whom she competed and who won the medals that she believes should have been hers — she regards them as the victims too. Because of the drugs regimes they were unknowingly placed on, they suffered horrific multiple health issues in their adulthood. 

The woman who finished ahead of Davies in 1980 "has heart problems, fertility problems." "These young girls were guinea pigs," Davies says.
