Former Olympian Caitlyn Jenner recently engaged in a public disagreement with tennis legend Martina Navratilova concerning the inclusion of transgender women in women's sports. The exchange began after Jenner's appearance on Lance Armstrong's podcast, "The Forward." During the podcast, Jenner and Armstrong discussed the ongoing debate surrounding the fairness of transgender women competing against cisgender women. Jenner, a vocal opponent of this inclusion, reiterated her stance, emphasizing the importance of fairness and protecting women's sports. She stated that allowing transgender women to compete creates an "uncomfortable position" for female athletes.

Navratilova, who shares similar views on the issue, criticized Jenner's discussion with Armstrong, questioning the credibility of two cisgender individuals discussing the experiences of transgender women in sports. She expressed skepticism about their ability to offer meaningful solutions. Jenner responded by defending her position and highlighting her alignment with Navratilova on the core issue. She further called out Navratilova's political leanings, suggesting they contradict the efforts of Republican lawmakers who are working to enact legislation to protect women's sports. Jenner pointed to a recent incident where Navratilova criticized the president of the Human Rights Campaign for stating she couldn't definitively say that males have an advantage over women in sports.
