“Intimidators make me F —— Malade,” Pascal told Vanity Fair. “This is a situation that deserves the greatest elegance so that something can really happen.”
Rowling rejected Pascal in an article on social networks on Friday and Navratilova added.
“Another Johnny recently came by telling women in Stfu,” wrote Navratilova.
Navratilova is a democrat for life but never hesitated to prevent her biological men from competing with girls and women in sport.

When Trump signed a decree to ban organic and girls’ organic sports, she sent a fierce message to the Democratic Party.
“I hate that Democrats have completely failed women and girls about this very clear problem of being female sporting for women only,” she wrote in an article on X.
She also expressed her frustration in January when the House of Representatives adopted the protection of women and girls in sport. Only two Democrats voted with the Republicans on the bill.

“More DEMS must intervene here. I know that many of those who agree but who are afraid to speak because of the re-election. I say doing the right thing. Ask a spine,” she wrote on X.
