Which harkens back to what Martina Navratilova said...that if a 
woman came down with AIDS (or not, for that matter) and said that
she as promiscuous as Magic has admitted to being, she'd be denounced
everywhere as a "slut", "tramp", "whore", etc.

I feel that for some warped reason, a lot of people think that those
women somehow deserved whatever they get because they slept around,
whereas Magic is to be felt sorry for.  The typical sexual double standard
at work again.

Sigh.
