Did I have grievances as a young woman? You bet. But protesting or sign carrying wasn't me -- and wasn't going to get it done. Billie Jean [King], now there was an influential force. Was there anything more equalizing than her sheer toughness, her combination of smarts and muscle? I wanted to influence, and to change. But there was only one way I could see that changed things: winning. You changed things for women by winning.
