nytimes.comMULLENS, W.Va. — Christy Martin put a sweet tea and a Sprite on her tab at Second Street Station on a recent afternoon. She had only a $100 bill and didn’t want to trouble the waitress by asking her to break it.
The restaurant knew Martin was good for it. Everyone in this former mining town knows her. Martin, 54, is largely credited with legitimizing female boxing in the modern era.
The first female boxer to make the cover of Sports Illustrated, she went undefeated for a decade, achieving success but secretly living a tortured life.
It was her second experience of fame — a terrifying, nearly fatal one — that finally set her free. Martin fought for the first time in a West Virginia “toughman” contest in 1987, the first year women were allowed to compete.

UK gender recognition law is among the worst in Europe, according to the European Commission.A 2018 consultation found strong support for allowing trans people to self-identify, meaning trans people would no longer need a medical diagnosis to change their legal gender.The European Commission says medical checks are ‘invasive’ and ‘dehumanising’.Despite public approval, ministers binned the broad changes, but moved the
