Martina Navratilova: 'I wouldn't have left home for Trump's America'

She looks good.

Good for her. Maybe now she’ll stop being transphobic and recognize that attitudes like that helped usher in this administration?

Martina Navratilova was the nicest celeb that I ever dealt with in L.A.

Funny and very smart.

I think her opinions, especially regarding athletes and sports, are valid.

Two things can be true. This administration is off the rails & biological males do not belong in athletic competition with biological females. Comments like R2 is just extremist & lacks realistic perspective. Martina's position defending women's sports is absolutely correct. Fewer people articulate this clearer than she does.

Back in 1989 I was at a Women's Tennis Event in D.C. working as a volunteer. I essentially just refilled the water cups for the players on the court.

Martina Navratilova was playing that event, and though I had never been sexually attracted to her before, I have to say that in person, she is mesmerizing. Kind of like Nancy Kulp meets Kiki Dee. Anyway, I was filling up Pam Shriver's water when she asked me if I could run into the locker room and get her Movado watch that was lying on a towel on a bench next to her locker. So I ran in there, feeling a little bit funny in my downtown lips at the opportunity to see "backstage" of the Women's tennis tour. And let me tell you right now, it didn't disappoint, as I walked in there was Chris Evert doing lunges in the buff. The only thing I can say is that it looked like she was hiding a bear cub down there. I was just about to suggest that she take some Nair to her whisker biscuit when out of the shower she came. Yes Martina Navratilova!! Wow, I had never felt so funny down in my grey clam in my life. She had a great rack, maybe a 34 C but the best was her porkchop sandwich. She had trimmed it ever so fine and it was actually in the pattern of a rooster!

Martina could tell I was checking out her goods, and she winked at me and pulled at a little string hanging from her nice piece of hair pie. She then said to me, "Do you want to earn your red wings?". Not knowing exactly what she meant but willing to do anything to be closer to this icon I nodded in agreement.

Well, the next thing you know I found out exactly what she meant, Martina's girl was bleeding like the Serenghetti and my face was slopping it up like Hattie McDaniel at an all you can eat jumbo fried shrimp buffet. I earned my red wings all right, the sides of my mouth to my cheeks were crimson with her rotted girl eggs.

Wow Martina!

R5 IS Pam Shriver?!

Her aging trophy wife is obnoxious. Time to turn her in for a younger model.

I liked her better with long hair. She looks like Ellen now. But then again, all old lesbians end up looking like Ellen.

R5 Funny until the end. Gross!!

R5 = India Willoughby.

Sadly, that's exactly what Trump and his minions want.

R4 Many of these gays who champion trans(biological men) in female sports ain’t never played a team sport in they life 😂. I said what I said.

R2 - Martina is not transphobic at all. She frickin had Renee Richards as her tennis coach for years - back when he was one of the only known trans people out there. To associate with Renee Richards on TOP OF BEING A LESBIAN was very bad PR for her - but she stood her ground.

Stop making shit up. She's done more for the gay and lesbian community than you'll ever do. This knee-jerk reaction of calling everyone transphobic is juvenile and obscene.

With climate change warming-up Canada now, I'd head there as a refugee.

Thank you, R13.

Martina has been a huge pioneer. A voice of reason. A portrait of courage.

Let’s love her.

R2 is probably one of the people FF'ing and getting everyone banned around here. Time to give him a time out and see how he likes it.

Can’t help but agree with her

[quote]She's done more for the gay and lesbian community than you'll ever do.

My guess is that R2 cares a lot about the "queer" community but doesn't really care at all about the gay and lesbian community.

Look who’s crossed out now!

R8, she left her hair short after recovering from cancer treatments. But long hair is better…

R19 - thanks - that felt good.

It feels like there's a bat signal sent out to the the trans police to barrage DataLounge with FF's.

R2, some people have trouble growing their hair long after cancer treatments. I knew a girl in high school who had chemo, and after that her hair reminded me of duckling feathers. It was like a permanent pixie cut; she just couldn't grow it any longer.

Ugh, R22 was for R21.
