Do you think this is some sort of good point? Hormone therapy doesn’t come close to erasing male athletic superiority.

I really think this was more about the former players calling the WNBA's bluff. They want what is fair for biological women.

The league and players have come out and said they would welcome it. Mainly bc they did not really think it would happen

i agree - full on virtue signaling with no real conviction, just wanting to appear to look good to such a small segment of society that it's largely meaningless.

Like the soccer gal who is pushing this, now that she's retired with no concerns about one of these she-men a threat to taker her job. so brave.

The league


Who that represents the league has stated that the league allows trans women? There is a petty distinct legal difference in a league rep saying it vs a couple of players and coaches

The WNBA has already scheduled a meeting. It’s working


Would you say that it worked if they defined it in a way that allowed trans men but excluded Kanter? It feels like that would not be difficult to do

I think it was the one that looks like a lesbian in the league office

As far as Kanter. I could see the WNBA trying to make a rule that you can't have played in the NBA or something like that.

Plus this is the first time the "we support trans" are put in a position with a professional league having to deal with this. Before this it has been in women's swimming, track, high school level, etc.

Now the absurdity of men and women being the same is being put to the test.

If they say they are becoming women to play in the WNBA they need to go through the process trans people go through. That's all I'm saying.

If there isn’t a massive 24/7 media/political campaign by ESPN and all the other regime media outlets to force WNBA to let these guys play they’re letting you know again this whole topic is a sham.

I’m not so sure that’s accurate per the people responsible for this movement

What process is that? Some trans people don’t do anything other than tell you they are trans now

The collectively bargained agreement doesn't mention any process.

It also does not define a woman though so you would assume that the WNBA has the ability to simply define it now in a way that all of its former players would match. They could probably easily define it as someone who has either an ID or passport or visa or whatever with a woman designation and that would end Kanters pursuit unless he really commits which he won’t.

So wait, no more ‘my body, my choice’??
Their medical records are absolutely none of your concern


I’ve never witnessed such an open and unapologetic display of hypocrisy on any side of an argument. It’s absolutely insane!

Not eligible. WNBA is for women only and not men claiming to be women. Get lost, a-hole.
