Posted August 10Aug 10 I wish both of these, uh, ladies, well in their future careers in the WNBA.OutKickFormer NBA player Royce White says he is declaring for ne...Royce White says he's declaring for the 2027 WNBA Draft as a transgender woman, joining Enes Kanter Freedom in challenging the league's eligibility rules.
August 10Aug 10 If I were the WNBA, I’d just call their bluff and say, "yep, as soon as you cut of your dick, you can enter the draft.” I feel like that would shut them up pretty quick.

Which is why Kanter and White are able to do this in the first place.

Seems to me if Kanter and White need to break out the scissors, the others should as well.Out of curiosity, what do you have against what they are trying to do? Do you support the hypocrisy of the WNBA?
August 11Aug 11 If you, or anyone else, has proof of anyone currently playing with D’s in the WNBA, please share it. If so, I support them going full trans as well.To my knowledge there has never been a trans woman to play in the WNBA, and their CBA requires players to be women. This all seems to be manufacturing a problem where one doesn’t really exist.If any man wants to compete in women’s sports then I think that them having the surgery is the first step that they should take. If you’re going to do a bit, at least commit to the bit.
August 11Aug 11 Need to gin up more culture wars for the midterms because they can't win the real ones they started.

Everyone wants to talk about inclusiveness until guys like Kanter and White call them out on their BS and hypocrisy and then it's all "well now you're just manufacturing a problem for political points". Seek help.

Seek help.Yes, that's their motivation. Definitely not a desperate cry for attention for guys whose careers are done. Let em play. I'd watch. Much higher stakes when a flagrant foul could turn into manslaughter charges.

Especially since the league and its players seem intent on crapping on the player that put them on the map.
August 11Aug 11 I think the WNBA is a league with terrible leadership that keeps choosing the wrong path and has lost control of the narratives surrounding its league.Almost every day there is another ridiculous story surrounding the mistreatment of Kaitlyn Clark. And it all seems to spiral outwards from there. I kind of enjoy seeing these guys force the WNBA in to taking a stance on something and making them either screw up more, or begin to fix it.On the other hand, this is yet more hypocrisy from the MAGA crowd who boycots other sports when politics become involved. Such as the NBA Black rights matter stuff, LeBron/China, or the NFL Kaepernick stuff, black national anthems, and on and on. Yet, now the same crowd is flocking to the WNBA BECAUSE politics are involved.This is clearly nothing more than a troll job. Literally no one benefits from pushing this issue in a league that literally no one cares about, including the WNBA leadership itself.

People with peens shouldn’t be playing women’s sports.If you’re committed enough to being trans that you have gender reassignment surgery, then that’s more of a gray area to me. But "I identify as a woman” isn’t enough.

I’m still never going to watch the WNBA, but yes I don’t believe that anyone with a peen should be playing women’s sports. Do you think that people with peens should be playing women’s sports? I thought for sure that would be something you were against.

It's CBA says it only allows women to play, true. But the controversy is "who is a woman"? As you correctly point out, that is easily answered via genitalia. But the powers that be have had a problem defining that which is indicative of a bigger problem in our society. Imagine for the league powers needing to pow wow to define who is a woman - as if you need a degree in biology to answer the question. Royce and Kenes are making a farce out of this non-controversy/controversy and demonstrating the hypocrisy of even having this debate. A much needed long overdue troll.

I was under the impression there were only two genders: males, who have peens, and women, who don’t. Of course, Biology was my worst subject in high school, and my lab science in college was experimental psychology, so 🤷🏻♂️

August 12Aug 12 Are we sure Royce White could make a WNBA team? Didn’t he score zero points in the NBA?
