Navratilova said initially that she and her fellow Democrats tried every which way to make the playing field fair for transgender athletes to compete in women’s sports. However, when she did more research into that notion, she determined it was an impossible task.

"Initially, being the Democrats and the women that we are for the most part, we in this group were trying to find every single possible way to include trans-identified men, males who identify as women, into women’s sports," she said. "And the more we try to find a way to mitigate the advantage, to handicap, to somehow to include, the more we figured out it’s not possible. It’s not possible to do it in a fair way and here we are in a much different position.
