Reply to comment by LAMustang61 in Martina Navratilova diagnosed with two forms of cancer. by PrincessBananas85

Sorry I didn't want to hijack this thread and definitely don't want to wish her any harm and hope for the best outcome but she has come out against trans women in sports (whereas Billy Jean King has offered her support for trans women in sport)

I watched just the first vid, but what she said there doesn’t make her a TERF. She’s talking about physical fairness in sports, and that’s an issue that hasn’t been fully addressed yet.

BJK is the real deal. Her legacy even predates Navratilova. So glad you mentioned her.
