Here is a recent headline, one that should be
an excellent example of a Babylon Bee headline, but that isn’t a Babylon Bee
headline, but a real one from Townhall --
an actual news outlet:
“WNBA to Hold Meeting to Discuss What the ‘W’
Stands For.”
The more I hear of the WNBA, the more I
realize there is no intelligent life here on this planet. Beam me up, Scotty.
Please.
The league is actually going to hold a meeting
in an attempt to define what it thinks the definition of a female should be.
And thus what kind of a female should be allowed to play in the league.
The league’s Commissioner, Cathy Engelbert
(hump-her-dink?), recently sent a memo to teams that addressed ongoing
discussions around transgender athletes in women’s basketball. It read:
“I
know many of you have received questions in recent weeks regarding transgender
athlete participation in women’s basketball, and I expect this topic will
continue to receive significant attention. I wanted to reach out to share how
we are approaching these conversations at the league office and to thank those
of you who have responded to questions from the media with thoughtfulness and
professionalism.”
The memo noted that the topic would be
discussed further by a task force of team presidents and general managers at a
previously scheduled meeting in the coming days.
Though the league’s collective bargaining agreement clearly states
that “only players who are women are eligible to play in the WNBA,” it does not
include any more specific language about gender identity or sex assigned at
birth, according to The Gateway Pundit. Uh-Oh.
So Enos Kanter Freedom and Royce White, two former NBA players,
have expressed their desire to be drafted and play in the WNBA? More power to
them, I say. If a man says he’s a woman, he’s a woman, right? #Believeallwomen.
#Evenifadudejustsayshebeawoman. Diversity,
Inclusion, and Equity baby
Conversely, if women should, for some reason, want to join the
YMCA, what’s the prob? I mean, I have every right to join any league, team, or
group on Earth with which I claim to identify, correct? Why can’t a Virgo
identify as an Aries? If a blind visually challenged person
identifies as a sighted person, who are we to say that that person shouldn’t be
allowed to drive a bus or be an air traffic controller? If an alcoholic with
shaky hands wishes to identify as an esteemed surgeon, who are we to judge and
prevent him/her/they from operating? Diversity,
inclusion, and equity, right? We are made richer by every type of
surgeon, whether untrained, blind, epileptic, unwashed, or in the throes of
alcoholic delirium tremens. The science is settled.
What ultimately happens to/in the WNBA will have ramifications, of
course. The LPGA will also have to do some soul-searching. The Daughters of the
American Revolution may be forced to admit male members of CAIR or Hamas.
Don’t lose sight of what’s really happening.
All the political brouhaha is leading us to decide if, as a society, we will
continue to value reality and truth…or if we will choose to follow the Father
of Lies.
If the Women’s National Basketball Association is no longer for
women, and girls can no longer dress, shower, undress, and defecate without men
present…they have been effectively made moot — and subservient.
I’m a man. And yet I would not allow my daughter to be taken
advantage of like this … no matter what, so help me God. No power on earth could compel me to
do so.
