Alix (Koh Lanta 2020) speaks out about the sexism she suffered

She is one of the leading candidates of Koh Lanta 2020, aka Koh Lanta, the 4 lands : Alix has repeatedly proven his leadership skills in the camp, but also his athletic skills in the events. If the candidate is so strong mentally and physically, it is because she has overcome many hardships and worked hard to achieve her goals, no matter what criticism she may have received. After experiencing a burnout in her previous job as a restaurant manager, she did everything to become a firefighter.

Alix opens up about the sexism she suffered as a female firefighter

But her integration was not easy, as she confided in an interview with Le Parisien this Friday, October 30, 2020. And for good reason, Alix has often been the victim of sexist remarks from other firefighters: “Colleagues firefighters pointed to me. Some said that I had been taken because I was a chick, even if mentalities have changed in the profession. I didn’t want them to think it was risky to go with me in intervention. So I kicked my ass with CrossFit “. She then trained tirelessly for 5 years, even if it meant putting her private life in the background. Today, she is proud of how far she has come, whether in real life or in Koh Lanta.

Koh Lanta candidate responds to criticism

Faced with the criticisms she has received since the start of the broadcast, she answers: “They find me lacking in humility. I worked my fitness for five years, so I’m just proud. If they wanted another winner on the stilts, it would have taken harder. I sometimes get insults from base because I’m a woman, like a ‘dirty bitch’. But I’m not ashamed of the image I throw out no matter what people think. “. One thing is certain: the young woman does not have her tongue in her pocket, and she has shown it several times after being accused of lying about the death of her sister or following the elimination of Hadja.
