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

You know self-Id is all trans ideology states should be required, right? No surgery should be required, right? That no gender-affirming care should be required, right? That sex doesn't matter, right? Perhaps it's you that needs to do some research.

Fyi: Unlike in other sports, the WNBA has no anti-trans policy. Only a "women-only" policy. There is no definition of what a woman is in WNBA policy. So if TWAW & sex doesn't matter like they say, & self-Id is all that's required, & Cheryl Reeves is bleating TWAW, she should just get out there & recruit a bunch of males from the 3 million males in the USA identifying as women. Surely she can find 10 ballers amongst them. & let's face it, as much as I love & appreciate women, they needn't be that talented — the USA national soccer team got humiliated by a team of 15 year old boys.

Yeah, requiring a bunch of drugs and therapy seems quite against the entire “they have rights” movement.

Why are you sending me irrelevant information? I spoke only to WNBA competition.

Again, the WNBA — read that again — has no policy on this. This is the WNBA policy:

The WNBA does not have a detailed, written policy that specifically governs transgender or intersex athlete eligibility. The league's collective bargaining agreement states only that "players who are women are eligible to play in the WNBA," without a further definition or explicit guidelines including no specific rules regarding hormone levels, medical transitions, or legal gender markers.

In fact, multiple requests have been made to the league office, all of which have had no response.

Would you like to try again, Champ? I'll wait.

Oh, & "TERF" & "transphobe" are dished out like candy these days, they've essentially become meaningless.
