Martina Navratilova has long been pronounced about transgender athletes in women’s sports, and earlier this week she attacked a democratic senator who voted against the bill.
Nevada Sen. Catherine Cortez Mastro was one of the 45 Democrats who voted against the bill, despite the executive command of President Donald Trump.
In a statement, Cortez Mastro explained Why she voted against the bill, despite “supporting (ING) Fair Play and … do not support (ING) transgender athletes that compete with girls and women’s sports.”

“I believe that local schools, student athletes, coaches and parents are much better equipped to implement honest, strong politics about this issue than politicians in the congress,” she said. “This general legislation would enable everyone to subject girls to invasive physical exams only because of the way they look. That is an incredible government and brings young women an increased risk of abuse and intimidation – something I have spent my career against.”
Navratilova, however, called the notions of the senator of such checks for athletes.
“Existing bloodwork. A simple cheek bar as they do on TV is a certain way to find out sex and it only has to be once (sic),” She wrote. “No genital checks ever !!! stop spreading propaganda, democrats !!!!”

The X Bio of Navratilova begs her followers to vote blue, but she has made it clear that she is on the other side of the spectrum with this issue.
Her fixed post says that she “will not vote for” Trump “now, compared his leadership with the” totalitarian authoritarian country “in which she grew up. The only thing they agree with is “male bodies” in the “spaces” of women.
“I lived in a totalitarian authoritarian country that grew up and I will now or never vote for that,” is the post. “Trump is not a pro-rapist and assaulter- he is transmen against all things. A big difference. I support transmen but no male bodies in sex-based spaces of women. Simple.”
