Nora Rati talks about a sometimes difficult upbringing in Finland.
The international star was “Very good” When I played soccer with other girls.
“You have to go to the toilet and get your pants down, I heard some demands,” Räty writes in his new autobiography.
Nora Ratti is one of the most highly regarded women’s hockey goalkeepers in the world and has played, among others, nine world championships and four Olympic championships for Finland.
The 33-year-old recently opened up the opportunity to take part in matches in Sweden, but instead returned to his home in Finland after spending his stint with Chinese KRS team Funke Rise, who play in the Russian league.
‘Must be a boy’
It wasn’t always easy being a star for so many years.
In her new autobiography, “The Lion Queen,” she said, among other things, that she played soccer and hockey with growing up boys.
When the nine-year-old Rati played a football match with girls once, problems arose after she decided on the match.
– Is this baby a girl? You must be a boy. The opponent’s coach said, according to Räty’s biography, this thing should be checked.
Räty’s father was able to produce a copy of her passport, but she also wrote that the parents on the opposing team also behaved poorly.
“You have to go to the toilet and take off your pants, I heard some demands. I started crying and screaming that I was a girl and that I would never prove anything”skriver Räty enligt Ilta-Sanomat.

In her book, Nora Rati also writes that she became a bully in her teens, after she started wearing “more feminine” clothes and started hanging out in girls’ groups instead of boys.
“As a teenager, I experienced pressure and insecurity in my identity as a girl, which made me look at other girls in a weaker position”writes according to CSKA.
“Maybe my gender and my different way of being a girl, in which I was suspected of being bullied and bullied throughout elementary school, may have left their mark on me.”
