    One of my most vocal ultra right wing relatives also knits! Coincidence? I doubt it.

    From punchable to punched. Should be interesting watching the various narratives...

    Not many. Not even one, by my count. Of course, the Oscars didn't have a host this year, so there were just the presenters and a couple musical performances. I did notice they let the winners take all night to give their acceptance speeches.

    Oh, you got cut by the Men's bball team at college? Just switch to the ladies side. Boom. Dominate in ladies college bball and then wreck WNBA players! Hello Subaru endorsement. Ka-ching! The WNBA would be particularly well suited for a trans-takeover. Half the fans are ladies that can be mistaken for men.
    It really demands that we decide what women's sports are. I find it hard to accept that they should be a celebration of the best athletes that choose to call themselves women.

    Paula Radcliffe tends to agree with her.

    If you're going to argue transsexual athletic rights on their merits, Navratilova is not the person you should be attacking. She has been a pioneer for gay rights, long before it was woke to support them.

    Her comments attracted criticism across social media. “We’re pretty devastated to discover that Martina Navratilova is transphobic,” tweeted the rights group Trans Actual. “If trans women had an advantage in sport, why aren’t trans women winning gold medals left, right and centre?”

    This "girl" wrestler agrees with you. Navratilova is seriously uninformed.
