Leftists Blast Sophie Cunningham for Saying Men Have No Place in Women’s Sports: ‘Truly Disgusting’​

WNBA star Sophie Cunningham is being attacked for her stance in support of protecting women’s sports from men identifying as women.


In an interview with ESPN published this week, Cunningham spoke out in favor of banning men who claim to be women from being allowed in women’s sports. And since the article went live, radical, pro-trans activists have targeted the Indianapolis Fever player.


“I got a lot of negative feedback about me hating trans. And I’m like, ‘I never once said that,'” Cunningham told ESPN.

“I think that I am here to extend love. But I also think with that love is truth, being honest. And I want to protect young girls in a locker room, or young girls in sport who shouldn’t have to go against biological men,” she added.

But now that her full sentiment on trans athletes is out there, the leftist mob is after her head, The Comeback reported.


One cowardly X user who locked her comments, for instance, ripped Cunningham as “disgusting,” writing, “******* awful. Cannot imagine being an adult with a large platform and choosing to bully vulnerable children in this way. truly disgusting and beyond disappointing.”


Another seemed to hint that she thinks Cunningham should be shunned in sports locker rooms: “It would be incredibly hard for me to share a locker room with that woman.”


WNBA reporter Roberta F. Rodrigues went on the attack and called Cunningham “transphobic” even though the WNBA star explicitly said she has nothing against trans people.


“Sophie Cunningham is unafraid. Unafraid to be blatantly transphobic. ‘I want to protect young girls in a locker room, or young girls in sport who shouldn’t have to go against biological men.’ Her own words. In an ESPN article, Rodrigues wrote.

Another extremist, left-wing X user lumped Cunningham in with reputed right-wingers: “Amazing how Sophie claims to ‘be in the middle’ when she’s literally following the likes of Tucker Carlson, Riley Gaines, Erika Kirk, and JK Rowling.”

Another X user attacked the league itself for allowing Cunningham to have an opinion.

“Btw if the ‘No Space for Hate’ campaign applies to fans, coaches and players alike, Sophie should be suspended for spewing transphobic dogwhistles publicly. Trans W players like Layshia Calrenden shouldn’t have to accept hate from a player of her former team,” she wrote.

Many other intolerant, left-wing bigots also piled on:

One common factor among these haters and foul-mouthed social media users is that they turned off their comments so no one can reply to their hate in kind.

Oh, Sophie is kicking ***.

WNBA Star Sophie Cunningham's player exclusive Adidas shoe sells out in less than an hour online​

The WNBA star's Crazy Energy PE attracted half a million views on social media as sizes vanished in minutes
Sophie Cunningham has quickly become arguably the second-most popular player in the WNBA, only behind Caitlin Clark, of course. She is a viral star on TikTok, one of the most efficient three-point shooters in the league, Clark’s defender when she’s bullied, a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model, and recently, an unapologetic defender of keeping women’s sports female. She’s the whole package, and many companies are taking advantage of her stardom, including Adidas.

On July 10, Adidas announced a player-exclusive Sophie Cunningham shoe that would be available for purchase in 10 days. The Crazy Energy "Sophie Cunningham" PE, a pink gradient colorway, released Friday morning for a retail price of $120.

Friday morning, in collaboration with Adidas, Cunningham posted a video of her in an unmarked van full of her new sneakers with the caption: "today's the day. who's ready for the drop?", which has attracted over half a million views across Instagram and X in its first three hours of posting.

Within minutes of the social media promotion, most men's and women’s sizes were sold out. In less than an hour, they were all gone.

This is further proof that Cunningham’s marketability is skyrocketing. She’s on billboards, in commercials, a prominent voice in the culture war, and now, she has a best-selling shoe.

 
but wait. there's more (unfortunately)

Go be in that room with your kids.

if Joe retard tranny can, then Mom/Dad/team rep most certainly can.

How would the team/organization not be liable for each participants safety at an event they host or participate in?

Yeah, mom was there. The point is I shouldn't have to worry about my little girl being in a locker room with a naked man whether her coach/rep/mom/dad are there or not. He shouldn't be in there.

Agreed 100%.

Hockey coaches for kids of all ages can be suspended if 2 are not in the dressing room with kids at all times. Not one to stop bad behavior, but 2 so that they can stop any sexual misconduct and vouch for the other adult as not participating in that same misconduct.

This happened on my 15 yr old's team this year, with a coach and a young boy with a zest for misbehaving both getting suspended for alleged actions that happened when said coach stepped out of the room. The coach missed a few games, the boy half the season and when the "external investigation" finally started, it was tossed away in disbelief after about 30 minutes because nothing actually happened.

It's a shiity world in so many ways.

I love the way they throw transphobic around at people who disagree with biological men in women's sport and locker rooms. Do they also think it is misandrist to exclude men who are not trans from women's sports and locker rooms? If Sophie Cunningham's comments are transphobic (which they are not), then I don't see how they aren't also misandrist. Hypocrisy of the nutjob "progressives" out on view again.
