Why is Martina Navratilova complaining that trans women have 'longer arms' meaning their opponents need to 'run more'? Have all competitors is women's tennis hitherto been of exactly the same height?

What is she TALKING about? I have short arms. Everyone I play tennis with (if I did anymore) has longer arms than me. So blimmin what. I hope someone just laughed in her face when she said this, it's pathetic, or it would be if it wasn't so damaging.
Exactly. As if there are no biological differences among cisgender athletes. Serena was quite muscular, Sharapova had long limbs—I don’t recall Martina complaining about fairness. The issue has been studied by medical experts, the IOC, NCAA, and should continue to be. Just stop the bigotry

I might launch a campaign for all sports to be divided into arm-length categories.
