transgender athletes should be celebrated and supported. But they shouldn't compete against women. In sports such as tennis & weightlifting it's simply unfair. In those like rugby or mma, it's downright dangerous.

'Cheating': Navratilova ignites transgender debate as Tokyo loomsMartina Navratilova has taken heavy criticism for her stance on transgender women competing in female sport but don't expect the debate to die down soon. I think it's an overstatement to say she 'ignited' it which sounds rather 'incendiary'. Let's say she added to the conversation when few others dared, because this is completely crazy & unfair on women and girls. Get rid of genders in sport; problem solved. Women's sport is finished, which is a good thing because why has sport continued to be segregated instead of every athlete being in the one big game? That's equality, obviously.

Navratilova says trans players are 'cheats', but she was coached by oneThere is a deep irony to Martina Navratilova's claim in a newspaper article that trans women have a physical advantage over innocent cisgender women. a coach isnt playing, and male or female can coach, so whats the problem? Did her coach play for her? Relevance? 😆 you can’t be a woman when you have male DNA

I would not be happy to compete against her': Navratilova hits out at trans athletesTennis champion Martina Navratilova reignites debate about how transgender athletes compete at the elite level. Martina There is no debate; there is reality, that trans athletes have no unfair advantages, and there's bigotry, what she's peddling. No tolerance for transphobes trying to hide their bigotry behind pseudo-science. Martina That’s a no brainer. Women’s sports will be reduced to a whole bunch of men pretending they are women Martina I completely agree with Martina,there needs to be hormone base ,to compete in women’s sports,I said this yrs ago,and a question,how many women to male are competing in sport ...ide like to know,I suspect,it will many more male to female,competing in women sport,$$
