“Women and girls are punished regardless of what they do in this misogynist world …”, wrote Navratilova in X.
He added that “feminists never asked for this. At least not the vast majority of us … never.”
Navratilova has been an important voice in the effort to protect female sports. She has been particularly critical of the Democrats who have not been able to advance to the dish, with her republican colleagues, to help approve the legislation to prohibit men in sports of girls and women.

At the beginning of the year, Navratilova criticized Democratic legislators who killed the protection of women and girls in the sports act. The legend of tennis asked the Democrats to “grow a spine” in a publication on social networks.
President Donald Trump signed the executive order of “no men in women’s sports” in February, and Navratilova regretted that the Democrats did not do what the president did.
“I hate that the Democrats completely fail women and girls in this very clear issue of women’s sports only for women,” he wrote in an X publication.
He then asked the Democrats when some states sank his nose before Trump’s executive order.

“What are you willing to give up the Democrats for men who identify as trans?” She asked about X. “Abortion … The Constitution … Rule of Law … that’s just to start …”
