Not that there's anything wrong with that:

quote:

“Me being heterosexual and straight, and being vocal in my identity as a straight woman was huge. I would say 98% of the women in the WNBA are gay women. It was a conformist type of place. There was a whole different set of rules they (the other players) could apply.” People were deliberately trying to hurt me all of the time. I had never been called the B-word so many times in my life than I was in my rookie season. I’d never been thrown to the ground so much. The message was: ‘We want you to know we don’t like you,’ ” Wiggins said.

I wonder if all the players realize that the league wouldn't exist without being propped up by the NBA aka men

I bet the WNBA teams bang each other after every game.

I'm pretty sure no one's tone deaf to that these days.

Don't even care that she's gay, Elena Delle Donne would get it.

Eta:

I would love to be the meat in the sandwich of her and her fiance:

This seems like one of those made up on the spot statistics.

Not doubting that the WNBA has more dykes than Holland, but 49 out of every 50 players... no.

Also says in the article that she is now pursuing a career in pro beach volleyball. I guess basketball was her love, but it seems tall, lean, athletic, good-looking, STRAIGHT, players should all try this once they find out the WNBA is nothing but a league full of angry, trashy, bullying, bigoted lesbians.

I love her quote at the end of the article. It really shows how a some women's sports "get it" and some don't. Doesn't matter what kind of league you want to be, you better be marketable to sports fans...aka men.

quote:

She aspires to play on the pro beach volleyball tour and possibly the Olympics. She touts the sport’s camaraderie and its “celebration of women and the female body as feminine, but strong and athletic.”

“I don’t know what I can accomplish in volleyball, but this is fun for me,” Wiggins said. “Volleyball has always been an outlet, and it’s something I can pursue on my own terms. It’s really the culture I’m signing up for. This is really who I am.”

It is. If you read the other quotes she clearly has an ax to grind with the league and is trashing it.

Judging by my community college, I would expect the same for softball players.

98% gay? So, like 2-3 straight women in the whole league. A detect a bit of exaggeration.

It's called a hyperbole.
