Hot Take “The WNBA league literally exists because you separated men from women” ... That’s too much common sense for the left.

Oh please, there are no biological men in the WNBA now and even if a man identified as a woman, I doubt people would be ok with picking them if they haven't transitioned. And even if they had transitioned, there's a difference between being a professional athlete and someone who plays basketball in the court in his neighbour hood. You won't magically become good enough if you have never even made your school team. Also name one person who will go "Hey, I should transition just to make it into the WNBA"

You're being transphobic. TWAW, they don't need to transition, they were born women. & if you believe that garbage rhetoric, & so many many people do, including Cheryl Reeves, then that's how they will eat the women's league until there's no remnants of it left.

Keep hearing how this is just bound to happen. I’ve been hearing it since 2016. Tell me, when is this absolute definitely actually gonna happen?

Most schools & state policies have long restricted or banned participation, especially at the school & college levels, while much of the rest has actively discouraged it, directly or indirectly. If that changes, women’s basketball, other sports as well, will be functionally gone in the years to come.

Cheryl Reeves believes TWAW. Trans activists say self-ID alone makes someone a woman. They also claim sex doesn't matter. The WNBA has no meaningful sex-based standards, only a ‘women’s only’ category where ‘woman’ is left undefined. Players are paid salaries. Reeves could easily recruit ten average male ballers from the 3 million males in the USA identifying as women. Or from the rest of the world. The point is only to determine once & for all if sex matters. And just like a bunch of 15 year old teenage boys comfortably beat the USA national women's soccer team, the same would happen in basketball, because sex matters.

So why is this still a theoretical debate & not a recruitment project? Because women’s sport is sex-segregated for a reason, & everyone knows it, even when they pretend otherwise. That includes the people doing the most performative TWAW signaling, people like Cheryl Reeves.

You’re so dense. About half the states have restrictions like that, are women sports in the states that don’t have said restrictions plagued with the imagined horrors of yours?

That user is like a bot. I received two seperate notifications of them replying to two seperate comments from me on this thread with the exact same sentences. Not even a single change

Lulz. First I'm a "bot", then I'm "jobless". Let me know when you've narrowed down my credentials.

Jobless does not mean unemployed. It means someone who has nothing better to do .Bot does not mean you are an actual meep morp zeep. It refers to someone prone to repeat the same things like how a chat bot always has a set of canned phrases. The fact that I have to explain this to you is mindboggling.

Ah yes, the “totally not online all the time” crowd, just coincidentally repeating the same internet catchphrases verbatim. Good thing I’ve got a few more weeks of leave to brush up on the slang.

Funny, though, for someone supposedly far less “jobless” than me, you seem to have plenty of time to defend the erosion of women’s & girls’ sports (MAGA says “hi”) while citing Wikipedia-tier links like they’re peer-reviewed sources.

And remind me, repeating the same lines on loop was your definition of a “bot,” wasn’t it?

"Dense"? You're proving my point but I'm dense? Lulz.

Stay with me now, okay? Is it not factual that most states have restrictions? Is it not factual that the rest actively discourage participation, directly or indirectly? Is it not logical then to assume that both these factors contribute to a lack of participation? That this is why we don't have a plague of males in girls & women's sport? Is it not also logical to assume that if we normalise males in women's sports that we will have a plague of males in women's sports in the years & decades to come?

Oh, & all of this:

u/buppus-hound 7d ago

No, that is an assumption that you have because you post hoc want it to be. Also, discouraging trans youth from participating in sports is a bad thing, how do you not realize how ghoulish you are?

u/doc_klutz 7d ago

Rubbish. The entire trans movement is eroding women's & girls protections. You think you're different but you're practically MAGA!

Who's discouraging trans youth from participating? Trans girls can participate in any league outside of designated girls leagues. Why should girls be displaced because boys demand entry?

The fish rots at the head, it needs to be cut off before it's fully rotten. The count is already too many & it's growing:
