If there were only a player that the WNBA could actually get behind that would bring in money...

here lies the problem.... the WNBA is pretty important to succeed as a league... Basketball is the 2nd most popular sport in america, and it is the only sport that they can mimic exactly from the male counterpart...

we as a society, whether we believe it or not, have to teach our daughters that they can achieve anything a man can... who cares whether you believe it or not...

and basketball is the clear best sport to do this with... if WNBA players dont make enough for it to be their full time job, then the league is just going to slowly get weaker and weaker in quality...

this isnt even about feminism...

They can 'mimic' soccer just as well. In fact the US women's team is far better vs their peers than the men's one

Sure. But for the most part soccer is only big in America during world tournaments.

Basketball is the second most popular sport here.

And yes. American woman’s soccer is very important too. But not the same as wnba.

Even the 11 year old girls that are more mature than the 11 year old boys in every town can't beat them in basketball in any town. Come on.

Remember when we used to laugh at Russia for their Five Year Plans? What do you suppose will happen after the Caitlyn Clark fervor dies down? The serious money people only are about money, not DEI and equity. They're not going to bankroll teams of black lesbians.
Why do you think the CC fervor will die down? Been going on for nearly 3 years and is only getting stronger at this point

Women can’t achieve things men can physically. Nobody should be trying to prove they can.

Cuz they can’t. It’s science.

Where did I say anything about quality of play?? Just said that we as a society should tell our daughters that they can do anything they want to do and that they are not worse than a boy. Truth is not relevant here.

They already can and society has been living that lie for 30 years already. Where have you been? It's swung so far the other way that the young boys are the ones being told they aren't as good as a girl. And if the boy thinks that's bullshit he gets medicated.

At least on the court, the boy can see and feel the truth. Truth is relevant there.

I can't just take your word for it.

I'm going to have to conduct several physical examinations and get back to you.
