Kanter Freedom can't play with the girls? But Lia Thomas (male) got to??

If you have to constantly invent hypothetical, implausible scenarios to try to make a point, maybe the point you’re making is just flapping dumb.

no...you made a claim...I want you to show your claim is true...go

Read the WNBA rule I quoted all the way back on page 2 of this thread.

but they are women, they said so

are you now saying those that were once men and now claim to be women are not women? clarify

I just asked ChatGPT. Sorry mate, but I'm not a big WNBA guy.

You seem to be obsessed with eligibility rules, here. Didn't marauder already post the rules? Why are you harping on it? Why are you creating ridiculous and implausible hypotheticals about race and gender that have nothing to do with reality? Why do you care?

"Saying so" isn't adequate.

Has Kantner scheduled his gender affirming surgeries yet? Is he receiving hormone therapy designed to feminize his body?

@no1marauder said
I'd stop watching, but philosophically no.

Probably would violate numerous Federal and State laws though.

mmmm hmmm

so does wnba violate eeoc laws with kantner and white?

@no1marauder said
Could you, right wing propaganda sources and politicians take your advice and "leave sports alone"?

Sure, that would be a good thread, there may be 2 sides to that, let’s discuss it!!!
But those issues would have nothing to do with this thread.

Man, you will try anything to get away from an issue.
Chalk this one up to me.

Neither of us watch the WNBA and neither of us know what the eligibility rules are. Why the frack would I have any comment beyond what is actually happening, to invent hypothetical and implausible scenarios and imagine what I would do if I were the commissioner of a league I don't care about?

EXACTLY. So we agree, neither of us care anything about professional, sports organizations, etc. etc.
Thanks for resolving that so we don’t have to talk about something that We don’t know anything about. I could not tell you anything about the baseball standings . I cannot imagine caring about that. Nine guys on a field playing ball. I just don’t get it.
So that settles that. Now, what are you writing about????

I'm not the one who keeps starting threads over and over again on a topic that I don't care about, and don't know anything about, and have no interest in finding out anything about it.

That's on you.

You have a habit of saying things to make you case…but the things are not true.

I gave you a chance to back up you claim, you couldn’t. As they say…you got caught

Where in the rules is this required?

Sorry if I got off of my own issue, apologies for mentining professional sports. I never played any sports so that’s maybe why it doesn’t interest me.
But to your point about finding out about things, I do find the forum to be a place to find out about how people think about certain things, especially the social mess in our country. We have people on this forum , who actually think that a man can be a woman as an example. I think it is fair to have a debate issue to have that person give us an honest definitive answer of how he can think that, which he has never done.
Nor has anyone answered definitively as to how it is logical for a man with typical different physical attributes than a woman should be allowed to compete with a woman.
Nor will anyone answer this…. Should one person be entitled to the labor of another?

Yes, let us not talk about professional sports, and what other people are doing on a playing field, which is irrelevant, and answer such questions as these to educate our fellow Forumers.

Thankyou.

It seems like you're all just using girls sports as an excuse because you don't care about it but you really really want to set demands for what other people do and how they act.

Maybe this whole "free country" thing isn't for you.

Just maybe we are tired of you freaks that can’t fit into normal society and demand special treatment at the expense of those that do things correctly.

Oh, you're tired? I think you're pretending. I don't believe your life has ever been negatively impacted by a trans athlete, which is why you need to make up silly and far-fetched hypotheticals to make your point about being tired of the freaks. You want them to behave differently, but they're not harming anyone.

What special treatment are you referring to?

In this case, it's the cis-gendered male basketball player who is demanding something.

The league already concluded that he's not eligible. A ridiculous, distracting inconvenience for them. They had to issue a statement. There are no trans athletes in the WNBA.
