Minnesota Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve and forward Napheesa Collier have joined current and former NCAA athletes and LGBTQ advocates in calling on the NCAA to take action in response to legislative measures restricting access to athletics for transgender athletes that are being considered and enacted across the country.
Fifty-six legislative measures have been filed in more than 30 states during the 2021 legislative session, according to Cathryn Oakley, state legislative director and senior counsel for the Human Rights Campaign. Arkansas, Tennessee and Mississippi have signed their respective measures into law. The motivation for these bills, according to lawmakers, is said to be the protection of women's sports.
"What's really harming women's sports is an overall lack of investment, whether in resources for female athletes, opportunities to coach [or] lack of pay," Reeve said. "The notion that the motivation for transgender athletes is to gain scholarships or competitive advantage is a false narrative. Trans inclusion makes our sports, our teams and our communities stronger."
"I consider transgender women my teammates, not a threat," Collier said. "The NCAA has to take action and withdraw all athletic competition from states considering harmful anti-transgender sports bills."

Current NCAA guidelines, enacted in 2011, stipulate that transgender men may compete in the women's category as long as they have not yet begun hormone replacement therapy and that they must compete in the men's category after beginning HRT. Transgender women may compete in the women's category after undergoing HRT for one year. In championship events, these guidelines must be upheld for all athletes.
The NCAA board of governors is meeting this Friday, and the legislation being filed across the country concerning transgender athletes as well as voting rights is on the publicly available agenda

These people can’t make up their minds. Wait until trans LaBrunda brings thunder down on their WNBA heads.

So the only way to get funding for female sports is to get men to play them?

Honestly it would be the best thing to happen to the WNBA. It would provide a lot of excitement and entertainment to watch some dude dominate these dumb bitches

These women are smart. Since they can't play in a league with men (the NBA) they have decided to bring men into their own league.

Typical leftist solution: more funding.

The only way to destroy this is to flood women's sports with "transgenders". Since transgenderism isn't an inelastic definition they don't have any argument against it unless they finally decide to clearly define what transgenderism actually is.

As far as the NCAA is concerned, it looks like hormone therapy for a year. Regardless, that doesn't negate the developmental advantages of having balls and testosterone for most of your life.

That's it. Take estrogen for a year, and you're good to go.
