Martina Navratilova has said that when she was playing, the parents and officials focused on "The Lesbians" being in the same locker rooms with their daughters, or preying on their daughters. Martina said the problem was the male coaches (and some officials) sexual abusing the young teens they were coaching, but that everyone turned a blind eye to that. She said some female players who became very big names were victims of this hush-hush sexual abuse.
