Episode Details

Jen Sey, ex-gymnast and founder of XX-XY Athletics, is rallying Minnesota fans to show massive support for WNBA player Sophie Cunningham ahead of the Fever vs. Lynx game — echoing Seattle’s historic turnout where supporters outnumbered opponents. Cunningham’s outspoken stance on protecting women’s sports from biological male competition has made her a lightning rod in the debate. While she hasn’t been suspended — a sign of progress compared to last year — activists say the league hasn’t backed her publicly. After a team owner apologized for confronting girls wearing “Save Women’s Sports” gear in Seattle, organizers see that as a minimal but meaningful step. Despite facing harassment and threats, they’re pushing forward with rallies planned across the U.S., including Phoenix, Philly, Indy, and Chicago — all while demanding fair play for biological females and welcoming respectful dissent.
