NEW YORK (AP) - Tennis icon Billie Jean King is not mincing words about the many white women who voted for Donald Trump, saying they "really don't like themselves."
King, who led the fight for equal pay for women in tennis, also says she feels there is more misogyny now than when she defeated Bobby Riggs in the famous "Battle of the Sexes" match in 1973, the subject of the new movie starring Emma Stone and Steve Carell.
"I think there's a lot of misogyny - I think it's higher now than it was," King said in an interview Tuesday evening at a Manhattan awards ceremony. She was being honored by the Wendy Hilliard Gymnastics Foundation, which provides gymnastics programs to underserved communities.
"I'm really upset with women, actually," King said.....

What was Riggs, like 90 when she beat him? They pretend that she beat McEnroe or something. So much of the feminist fraud is built on that silly publicity stunt
Poor little dude.
Billie Jean is a LESBIAN....she knows EVERYTHIG about women!!
FWIW, I’m equally upset with all the dykes that voted for one of their own last November.
Has Rose Marie chimed in on this issue yet?
Says the misandryst.
In women’s tennis, I always root against the heterosexual.
...and that's the only reason this stupid bit of "news" exists at all.
p.s. I'll predict right now that movie will be a flop. People born after 1973 don't know of the event. People born before 1973 don't care or hardly remember it. It was a silly publicity stunt even back then. Hardly on the scale of events like Apollo 13 ( a great movie adaptation, BTW).
Look lady, and I use that term loosely, I was disgusted that ANY American (including yourself) voted for Obama. You were obviously filled with such hate and loathing that you wanted a magical black socialist to save you from yourself.
Get bent.
You will be made to care.
Didn’t Billie Jean King used to be Bruce Jenner?
Boy, now I’m regretting my vote for Trump - I mean, I never knew this would be so upsetting to Billie Jean (/sarc)
Today's guest on the Two Minutes of Trump Hate: Billie Jean King, who was somehow connected to Helen Reddy's song I Am Woman back in the early (pre-disco) 1970s.
I was 13 when it happened and I’m 57 posting a thread about it. I feel like Rip Van Winkle.
So, I’m upset with men who voted for the hildebeast.
Who cares?
anyone under the age of 50 is going “Who...?”
What a comment by a real sicky.
Maybe we could get Dick Clark to chime in on this...
I watched that debacle when it happened. Riggs was much older than her but was still a great tennis player. It was obvious to me he was not even attempting to win. Several years (decades?) later he said it was rigged and I think I read some supporting evidence just a few years ago.
