WNBA Releases Letter- Says Enes Cantor Freedom and Royce White Cannot Play in League But REFUSE TO ANSWER What Is a Women… Update: And They Allowed a Trans Man to Play!

The WNBA dashed the hopes of trans athletes everywhere when they released their letter earlier this week on trans athletes in the league.

The WNBA WILL NOT allow Enes Cantor Freedom and Royce (Roysha) White to play in their women’s league.

But they will not define what a woman is! Why is that?

The once trans-welcoming league is now the nation’s leading openly trans-phobic league!

Enes Cantor Freedom released their letter on Thursday.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OF AMERICA, THE MOMENT YOU’VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!

The @WNBA has officially responded!

IS THE #WNBA TRANSPHOBIC?

Apparently, the WNBA still can’t define what a WOMAN is, but they’re absolutely certain they know what a MAN is!

How convenient!

WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert has declared that I am a man.

Who gave her the authority to decide who I am?

Who gets to define my identity?

And how can the WNBA determine who is a man without explaining what qualifies someone as a woman?

Is the WNBA denying people the right to define their own gender identity?

You can’t have it both ways!

America, read this letter for yourselves.

THE WNBA HAS SOME EXPLAINING TO DO!

And, they still won’t define what it means to be a woman!

Never forget that the WNBA had an openly trans player in the league for years.

The Gateway Pundit reported earlier that the league previously allowed trans players to play.

In fact, one of the trans players has been very vocal.

Layshia Clarendon was born a female but decided to have her breasts removed while playing in the WNBA. She played in the league from 2013 to 2024.

Clay Travis posted the tweet earlier on Thursday. Travis believes the WNBA has a major legal problem.

The league allowed Clarendon to play while receiving testosterone, but Royce and Enes are not allowed?

I would like other lawyers to read and analyze this too. If @wnba let a woman identifying as a man play — while receiving testosterone — and called him a man in league releases how can they ban men who say they are women? https://t.co/snCpxHxhvp

Layshia Clarendon was not shy about her transition. She even posted photos of her breast removal while she was playing in the WNBA in 2021.

Layshia was playing for the New York Liberty and then the Minnesota Lynx that year.

I’m usually not scared to share news publicly but the amount of hate, myths & ignorance actually had me debating sharing this joy. I had Top Surgery! I’m feeling free & euphoric in my body & want Trans people to know and see that we’ve always existed & no one can erase us! pic.twitter.com/6ERDPoQGwb

The WNBA needs to explain this.
