WNBA Trans Layshia Clarendon THROWS TANTRUM After Clay Travis EXPOSED Gender — Sophie Was RIGHT!
WNBA Trans Layshia Clarendon THROWS TANTRUM After Clay Travis EXPOSED Gender — Sophie Was RIGHT!

The WNBA has refused to define what a woman is. Yet they have allowed a woman to become a man. >> Was she receiving testosterone treatments when this occurred? >> Lashia Clarendon. In 2021, she had top surgery. She removed her breasts and decided that she was a man. >> The league would have to argue Lashia’s Clarendon wasn’t actually a man, which directly contradicts the public statements the league has already made celebrating her transition to a man.
>> Men should not play sports against women. I’m not going to get into all the [ __ ] that’s going on out here in the world today. If anybody think that, I think they’re stupid. Uh, I’m not >> Clay Travis just detonated the biggest legal bomb of the entire WNBA season. And the shockwave is not stopping. On August 27th, 2026, Travis posted on X what every legal analyst who looked at the WNBA’s handling of Enes Kanter Freedom immediately recognized as a potentially catastrophic institutional contradiction. WNBA has a major legal
problem. They already allowed a player who identified as a man to play in the league for years. They celebrated it publicly. So how can they keep Enes Freedom and that highway underscore 30 out now? >> The reason why people call Sophie Cunningham Maga Barbie and people are starting to fill the arenas to watch her and Caitlin Clark.
She’s not apologizing for saying that there should be no men in this women’s sport. It’s caused an absolute crisis and people are losing their mind. Photo of Brittney Griner with a full beard after being released from a Russian prison. >> The WNBA’s Brittney Griner is a man. >> The player in question is Lashia Clarendon.
And the legal trap Travis identified is so complete, so thoroughly documented, and so publicly unavoidable that the WNBA, the organization that ejected Enes Kanter Freedom for wearing a dictionary definition, now has to explain in front of the entire country why the person they publicly celebrated as a man was allowed to play while the men who self-identified as women were privately deemed ineligible with no public announcement.
>> I have two little girls who play sports, who play soccer. I They’re young and I see how much hard work they put into their sport and only to have a boy or a man who they’re biologically built different to come in and just play better and take your spot. Look, if you want to play in a trans league, go ahead, but not in girls sports.
Don’t try to erase women and girls. >> Sophie Cunningham said she wants to protect young girls in sport. She was right and Clay Travis just proved that the league that booed her for saying it has been contradicting its own eligibility standard for years. >> I’ve said that’s going to cause a problem with their woke ass players and their coaches to the point that I think you could see them refusing to play games if the league wants to do that.
That discovery process and a lawsuit, holy sheet. That’s going to blow this whole thing, the lid off the whole thing. Because during that discovery process, they can try to get correspondence from everybody across the >> Travis noted that transgender player Layshia Clarendon remained eligible despite having top surgery, the removal of her breasts, and other so-called gender reassignment treatments in 2021.
She retired from the WNBA in 2024. >> Shouldn’t biological men play in the WNBA? The answer should be no. That should be the answer from everybody. Should biological people that were born men play in the WNBA? No, full stop. Any other thing There is no Whoa. So, are you saying transgenders don’t have a right to say Man, shut the [ __ ] up. I ain’t say nothing like that.
You asked me a specific question. Do transgenders belong in the WNBA if you’re born a biological man? No. Okay? >> Travis pointed out the league referred to Clarendon as him in all league press releases, guidebooks, and game notes, not her, him. The WNBA’s own official documentation, press releases, guide books, game notes use the pronoun him for Layshia Clarendon throughout their playing career.
>> Front Office Sports reporting that neither Enes Kanter nor Royce White will be allowed to play in the WNBA. Really? Quote, “The league is not going to give oxygen to efforts designed to mock the league or use this topic to demean and marginalize others.” >> Adam should come out and Cathy, I like both of them a lot.
Women can own There’s no transgender people going to play in the WNBA. If you don’t like it, kick rocks. We’re not going and we’re not going to discuss it anymore. >> WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert stated publicly at this time of Clarendon’s surgery, “We are so proud that Layshia is part of the WNBA and we know that their voice and continued advocacy will not only support and help honor and uplift many other non-binary and trans people.
” >> In 2021, she posted a video of herself right after she had had so-called top surgery. She had her breasts removed and celebrated this and said, “It’s hard to put into words the feeling of seeing my chest for the first time free of breasts.” >> 11 years in the WNBA and remained eligible despite having top surgery, removal of her breast, and other so-called gender reassignment treatments in 2021.

>> The fallout continues of Enes Kanter and Royce White two former NBA first round draft picks declaring for the WNBA. >> Two former NBA players who have declared themselves eligible for the 2027 WNBA draft in April is a complicating factor. >> For all of the talk about the WNBA and who is and who is not eligible to compete in the WNBA, the WNBA has actually had a player already that was trans.
>> The owner of the New York Liberty, Clarendon’s team at the time, Joseph Tsai, also said Layshia is a proud embodiment of our belief that our strength lies in our truth and no one should live constrained by societal boundaries. The commissioner celebrated it. The team owner celebrated it. But >> I’m never going to think it’s all right for men to play sports against women.
I I just I and I don’t even think that’s controversial. That’s the thing that’s funny. Like some of this stuff some of this stuff like like when you see these these debates on television like Yeah, men shouldn’t play sports against women. I’m done. I don’t want to hear you try to explain it [music] to me. No, no.
Uh no, no, no, I don’t want to hear it. I’m not going to argue with you. Men shouldn’t play sports against women. I’m done. There’s a [music] lot of we can argue over. That ain’t what You women out there Y’all petty, man. Hey, LeBron, you 100% right on these girls hating on Caitlin Clark. >> The league used him in official documentation and Clarendon played from 2013 to 2024, an 11-year career including years during which they were publicly transitioning, had top surgery, and the league referred to them as him in official records. Clarendon is a
woman who identifies as a man, and the league allowed her to play while receiving gender change treatments, likely including testosterone treatments, and referring to her as him in all league press releases, guidebooks, and game notes. >> seeing my chest the way I’ve always seen it and feeling a sense of gender euphoria [music] as opposed to gender dysphoria.
So, if they’re going to allow a woman who becomes a man to play, the only way that they can justify it while still claiming that she’s a man is by saying she was born as a woman. >> The league would have to argue Layshia’s Clarendon wasn’t actually a man, which directly contradicts the public statements the league has already made celebrating her transition to a man.
>> I think the fact that they have had this previous trans player in the league is a mess for them [music] legally. >> In essence, how does the WNBA argue that only women are eligible to play in the league if they have already permitted and publicly celebrated a trans man playing in the league? >> Clarendon says she eventually grew a mustache raising an intriguing question.
Was she receiving testosterone treatments when this occurred? That seems likely. So, in addition to allowing a woman who identified as a man to play basketball in the league, it likely the league permitted gender treatments including testosterone for a player. >> Sophie Cunningham, otherwise known as MAGA Barbie in the WNBA, is a superstar player.
She’s one of the most famous female athletes in the world because she stood up for women in women’s sports saying only biological women should be allowed to play in the WNBA. [music] And for that, she is literally risking her life. Check this out. This is what happened to Sophie Cunningham last night when she was clotheslined by a filthy, [music] dirty player for Chicago who has a name that I can’t pronounce or maybe I just [music] refuse to do that.
That’s my right as an American. But, this is a player that has attacked Caitlin Clark, gouged her eye out, that has now bloodied the face of Sophie Cunningham. And as soon as she did this, she tweeted white privilege meaning she’s declaring this is a race crime. Now, if a white [clears throat] woman was doing this to black women, it’d be the number one story in the world.
She’d be banned from the league forever. [music] But, somehow black women are allowed to get away with this against white women. And it’s white women in the league who make themselves a target by simply standing up for traditional values and common sense. >> Elevated levels of testosterone are prohibited in most leagues, male and female, because they are considered performance enhancing.
In order to exclude Freedom and White, the league would have to argue Layshia Clarendon wasn’t actually a man, which directly contradicts the public statements the league has already made celebrating her transition to a man. That is the trap, complete, inescapable, documented. >> They released a statement praising her on becoming a him.
They said they welcome him to play in the league. >> WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert stated publicly at the time of Clarendon’s surgery, quote, we are so proud that Layshia is part of the WNBA. >> You have a woman who has decided to identify as a man, and when she chopped her boobs off and potentially began to receive other gender-related surgeries, treatments, whatever else, we don’t know cuz it’s not specified here.
The WNBA said, you are welcome. We will use whatever pronouns you want to use. You are effectively a man who is paying playing in the WNBA. >> The WNBA publicly celebrated Clarendon’s transition to a man, used him in official documentation, let Clarendon play while receiving gender treatments, and then privately deemed Freedom and White ineligible while staying publicly silent because their self-identification as women should make them eligible by the same logic the league applied to Clarendon’s self-identification as a
man. >> [music] >> The WNBA is for women. And listen, this is the last time we’re going to discuss it. We’re not going to turn it over to the fools on the internet. We’re not going to turn it over to Congress and things like The WNBA is for women only, period. >> Clarendon’s own words from a January 2021 Instagram post, it’s hard to put into words the feeling of seeing my chest for the first time free of breasts.
Seeing my chest the way I’ve always seen it and feeling a sense of gender euphoria as opposed to gender dysphoria, sigh, freedom. Freedom at last. >> The owner of the New York Liberty, which was Clarendon’s team at the time, said that this this woman was quote a proud embodiment of our belief that our strength lies in our truth, and no one should live constrained by societal boundaries.
>> I’ve said that’s going to cause a problem with their woke ass players and their coaches. To the point that I think you could see them refusing to play games if the league wants to do that. That discovery process and a lawsuit, holy sheet. That’s going to blow this whole thing, the lid off the whole thing.
Because they’re in that discovery process, they can try to get correspondence from everybody across the league. >> And from other documented statements, I’ve learned that my gender doesn’t fit into these molds that keep trying to hold it down and box it in. I know that my gender will keep evolving because we change and grow and shape-shift and expand.
>> Could this culminate in you actually playing in the WNBA? >> Why wouldn’t they let me play? It’s It’s completely completely bigoted to deny my trans existence. >> Clarendon identified as non-binary, used they/them pronouns, had top surgery, referenced a future mustache suggesting hormone therapy, and was called him in WNBA official documents.
The WNBA celebrated every step. Layshia Clarendon, who played for 12 seasons, including three with the Fever, is widely recognized as the WNBA’s first trans and non-binary player. >> He insisted that her teammates wear black trans lives matter t-shirts. >> Existing outside the binary for me is freedom.
I learned that the my gender didn’t doesn’t fit into these molds they keep trying to hold it down and box it in. I know that my gender will keep evolving. >> Existing outside the binary for me is freedom. I’ve learned my gender doesn’t fit into these molds and that keep trying to hold it down and box it in. I know that my gender will keep evolving because we change and grow and shape-shift and expand.
I know that we all have masculinity and femininity inside of us and mine shows up equally and wholly and fully. >> Recognized by the WNBA itself as trans, as non-binary, as him in official documentation while playing in the league called the Women’s National Basketball Association. Sophie Cunningham said she wants to protect young girls in sport.
She said biological men should not compete against biological women. She got clotheslined, booed, protested, and had white privilege posted at her from a locker room. >> said, “I do think that there is a thing called pretty privilege. There is a thing called white privilege. There is a thing called tall privilege.
And we have to acknowledge that. And so, um part of it is about race because if you think about the Brittney Griners of the world, you know, why did she have to go to play in Russia?” >> pay her. >> Cuz they wouldn’t pay her. >> Cuz they wouldn’t pay her. They wouldn’t pay her. >> You know, but I I I’m rooting for Caitlin because I’ve been in that seat before. I’ve walked that road before.
I hope they I hope she kills. I hope Aliyah Boston does amazing. And we have grown ass men and women out here doing whatever they can to try to make sure that does not happen. That is the weirdest thing in the world, [music] but it is what it is. And I’m glad that Caitlin has a great head on her shoulder. >> And the league that booed her has been celebrating a player they called him in official documentation for years while simultaneously refusing to define what a woman is. Sophie Cunningham was right.
The WNBA’s own documented history with Latasha Clarendon proves it. >> She’s bragging about becoming a man and growing a mustache. To me, that suggests that she’s taking some form of steroid that would allow a mustache to grow like this. >> She says that her WNBA teammates helped her draw a mustache on her face so she would look more like a man.
Well, one of my teammates before I had my little mustache, she helped me fill it in one day for media day with her eyebrow pen. >> She talks about growing a mustache and wanting to have that mustache there. >> Indiana Fever’s Sophie Cunningham sparked a brushfire this summer by voicing support for girls sports. Biological males shouldn’t be permitted to play in their leagues.
In fact, that’s the way out of this mess. Declare the facts of biology and note that this league is for biological women only. That is the solution. >> In 2021, she posted a video of herself right after she had had so-called top surgery. She had her breasts removed and celebrated this and said, “It’s hard to put into words the feeling of seeing my chest for the first time free of breasts.
” >> 11 years in the WNBA and remained eligible despite having top surgery removal of her breast and other so-called gender reassignment treatments in 2021. >> The one Cunningham identified in one sentence months ago. The one the WNBA’s task force meeting could not produce. Declare the facts of biology.
Note that this league is for biological women only. Write it into the CBA with a definition. Stop calling it bad faith. Stop ejecting fans in dictionary shirts. Stop leaving bench leaving players in games while ejecting the fans they confront. Write the policy. Define the term. Do something or suck it up. >> The Clark’s head coach Stephanie White, well, she didn’t want the biological men kicked out of women’s sports and she made that pretty clear.
>> I don’t know that I would say that I’m educated enough from a scientific standpoint. Uh I don’t ever believe that exclusion is an answer. I just don’t. Um I I do think um you know, when we think about various levels of sport, various governing bodies of sport and things that go into that.
Like I said, I’m not a I’m not educated enough at the different levels. Um I know growing up I played with the boys all the time. >> “They are trying to fix a problem that does not exist,” said one LGBTQ advocate about the trans debate in the WNBA. But Clay Travis’s Clarendon revelation proves the problem exists in the WNBA’s own documented record.
The problem is not trans women trying to enter the league. The problem is a league that publicly celebrated a player they called him in official documentation for years, while being unable to explain why two men self-identifying as women are ineligible. The WNBA celebrated a player they referred to as him in official documents for years, ejected a man in a dictionary shirt, called Canter ineligible in secret, and still cannot define what a woman is.
Sophie Cunningham told them in one sentence. Clay Travis just proved she was right, one fan posted. They let a player they called him play for years while receiving gender treatments and possibly testosterone, then secretly deemed two men ineligible for identifying as women. The legal contradiction is catastrophic, another wrote.
The WNBA’s way out of this mess is exactly what Cunningham said from day one. Biological women only. Write it down. Done. A third fan posted, is Clay Travis’s Layshia Clarendon revelation the most legally devastating document in the WNBA’s entire eligibility crisis? And does the league’s decision to publicly celebrate a player they called him in official records while secretly deeming Freedom ineligible prove that Sophie Cunningham’s common sense solution was right all along? Drop it in the comments.
