From the news:
Athlete Ally, a nonprofit that advocates for LGBTQ inclusion and equality in sports, has severed ties with Martina Navratilova following Sunday's controversial op-ed, in which the tennis star called transgender women who compete in women’s sports “cheats.”
“Athlete Ally unequivocally stands on the side of trans athletes and their right to access and compete in sport free from discrimination,” the organization wrote in a statement. “Martina Navratilova’s recent comments on trans athletes are transphobic, based on a false understanding of science and data, and perpetuate dangerous myths that lead to the ongoing targeting of trans people through discriminatory laws, hateful stereotypes and disproportionate violence.”
The nonprofit then noted that Navratilova has been “removed from our advisory board and as an Athlete Ally ambassador, effective immediately.”

I must say - I have NOTHING TO DO with "Athlete Ally". I am actually considering suing them for all they are worth for using my name and sports expertise.
Martina is ABSOLUTELY right. Men AREN'T bigger, faster and stronger than women??
