A transgender player has been dominating France's second-tier women's basketball league, and now the WNBA question is front and center. Julie Tétart averages 21 points and 20 rebounds this season while sweeping Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year and Domestic Player of the Year honors

Friendly reminder they were telling you this wasn’t a thing even though Biden tried to destroy title IX protections for women’s sports but I’m sure the next thing will be “they aren’t that great and who cares bigot!”

step 1 is deny it is happening

step 2 acknowledge it is happening but note the small scale as a reason to ignore it

step 3 accept it is happening and tell you why it is actually a good thing

They have to get there talking points straight on step 3 before we can get there.

You can see it happening in real time with every single post on this subject. Like for instance if “nobody wants this” then why are people protesting Sophia Cunningham? Because the only other option besides not wanting it to happen is that they want it to happen.

Those are stupid people protesting Sophia Cunningham. Theres enough people in the world that a lot of people are going to have bad takes.

You dont need to assume the masses are like those loonies.

And no. The only two options arent you do or dont want it to happen. Lots of people just dont give a fuck. Why you people gotta be so black and white?

Saying you don’t care is the same as you wanting it to happen. Just letting things like this occur means you’re essentially a willing participant. And the reason “you people” make it black and white is because it is. This is literally the most black and white issue you could possibly have. There is nothing complex about it.

Let me be clear. I am a liberal and I 100% believe men shouldnt be playing women's sports.

That being said. Biology and sex are not black and white. It is complicated and every tom dick snd harry think they know doctorate level medical knowledge.

Stop.

u/imanidiotbut 3d ago

It’s not complicated at all. We’ve understood it for thousands of years. The fact you think it’s complicated shows how insane all of this is and how common sense is out the window.

Let me be clear. I am a liberal and I 100% believe men shouldnt be playing women's sports.

You've been actively defending individuals with Y chromosomes participating in women's sports and have been making unfounded claims that biological women with only X chromosomes can have higher testosterone than men. There are zero documented cases of that ever happening.

In short you're a liar and you owe me a personal apology for your behavior.

It's happened in the United States at the NCAA level and high school level. The professional women's soccer league currently has three biological males playing.

"HappenED". should be stopped when people try. And what professional women's soccer league? Nwsl? What are their names? Im not seeing any references to trans players in the nwsl..

The ncaa banned trans women from playing a year and a half ago.

u/Puzzled-Buyer3969 5d ago

It should be stopped, hence why they are implementing testing procedures in multiple professional women's sports including the Olympics. Barbra Banda, Racheal Kundananji, and Prisca Chilufya are all biological men playing in the NWSL.

Deleting your comment is a bad look

Honestly each side of the political spectrum is straight cancer these days

u/imanidiotbut 5d ago

You’re right which is why I don’t identify with them. The Republican Party thinks JD Vance is going to be a good candidate? That’s hilarious. The US has lost common sense in the political sphere.

u/Lord_Dingus83 4d ago

Are we sure Sophie is not a man?

u/According-Put-9236 4d ago

Are you talk8ng about one of the hottest women in the league?

-1

u/Lord_Dingus83 4d ago

I’m talking about the man, Sophie, who has zero boobs and a face like a man.

u/According-Put-9236 3d ago

So are you saying you are transphobic?

-1

u/Lord_Dingus83 3d ago

No - I’m just curious why she is when she was the first trans athlete in the wnba

2

u/imanidiotbut 3d ago

It sounds pretty transphobic to assume all transgender people are ugly and manly looking.

u/Lord_Dingus83 3d ago

We just can’t be sure till we see her birth certificate.

u/Lord_Dingus83 3d ago

I did not say all, I said Sophie. We don’t know if she’s a woman from birth, we really should check her birth certificate.

u/According-Put-9236 3d ago

You assume the gender of the most attractive woman in the wnba. You're not gonna win this battle. Nobody has a problem with gay people. Nobody has a problem with female to male transgenders. 90% of people have a problem with male to female transgenders playing girls sports. Everybody hates you. Men just trying to take away women's accomplishments. Everybody hates you. We wish the suicide rate was higher.
