@@manicpepsicola3431 oh yes I would lose for her badlyyyyyyyyyyyy. But on the field I work she would not win against me. Let's compare oranges with oranges and apples with apples. I am no pro basketball player
I’ve never commented before, but this issue of men being dismissive of female athletes and underpaying female athletes. I wrestle for my high school and I’m the first and only female wrestler. I’ve had to wrestle boys and ngl most of the times I lost (although I have pinned 4, 1 on JV and 3 on varsity). I always feel like I have to win to prove that girls wrestling is actually decent, which is so bs because honestly I’m not the best. It’s my 3rd year wrestling and I did take 7th in states, but they’re are so many girls who are nationally and internationally ranked who would smoke these boys. Even if the boys did wrestle these girls and lost they’d make some b.s excuse for it. Like even though I’m better than most of the guys in my team and I beat them in practice they’ll still be like “I wrecked you at practice and you suck.” I’ve basically been called every slur and my accomplishments are always undermined by the boys on the team. Honestly, as long as we women enjoy female sports and we support each other that’s all that matters. We don’t need men’s validation and frankly we’ll never even get it so why try. Just be happy doing your best
@bunny I appreciate that! I’m at a club with all girls now and they’re honestly the best! We’re all friends and some even have girls teams in high school. And now there’s a lot of girls wrestlers and I’m lucky I get to go to girl tournaments and stuff like that. 💗💗💗
You talk about “ MEN”…. Hate to tell you !!! You “WOMEN” do not watch your women’s teams!! The real problem is “MEN& WOMEN” some women are talking about CC rt now!! I DO NOT WATCH BASKETBALL AT “ALL” & I have now watched 4 of her games. She is a TEAM PLAYER…. she does not hog the ball… she gives CREDIT to her teammates!!! I like watching THE TEAM PLAY!!!
@tarverr.mcknightjr4439 what you’re saying isn’t really the main point of my comment. I was just saying how guys pick on me for wrestling like they do to Caitlin Clark. And you’re right, I’m don’t watch basketball because I haven’t played since I was little. BUT I did watch all the Olympic trials for women’s wrestling on TH-cam and I plan on watching the real thing on the tv. Basketball isn’t really my thing but I’ll make a point to watch one of her games now. Honesty I don’t want to argue but I feel like you didn’t actually read what I wrote. But yk what, have a great day! 💗
@vincemarino1939 people existing in communities that dont center (or actively decenter) the male gaze and mens opinions and perspectives, and where women tend to uplift each other for their personalities, skills and talents really threatens you huh
@@honey6610 No. Life is good. You obviously don't know anything about WNBA culture. The queer women are the majority and often many are not accepting of straight players. Many retired straight players tell about the shit they took from queer players. Especially clean cut girls like Caitlin. Part of the image problem the league has always had. Should be about the hoops but it is not.
She has done more for women's basketball than any player before her. Her WNBA debut was SOLD OUT. She is a great shooter, but her vision to see the open player or make a play is incredible. This last NCAA tournament was incredibly fun to watch. She brought in the fans, which benefits all the players/teams. Would love to see her wipe the floor with these idiots who think they can beat her 😂
10:12 I’m so disappointed with people, as soon as I saw a woman outperforming men at basketball I was 100% sure that there would be transphobia, and it really hurts me deeply how all these men are so threatened by a woman simply being good at something, that they resort to such a low and hateful blow such as transphobia. My heart goes out to all the trans people and all the people hurt by the transvestigators. It’s truly vile.
People just love resorting to it for no reason. I remember when lady gaga was accused of being a dude just for being boxer shaped. When people make those claims, they know it's not true, they just want to hurt someone.
Lesbians are hating on her , men love Caitlin. She is the only woman I know the name of in WNBA . I don't care about the existence of others at all lmao .
The whole Antonio Brown situation is really disgusting. It's so fricking creepy and I don't know why he didn't get way more shit from it (but I guess that should be expected from twitter). I don't know how right wing goobers and reactionaries can act like we've "solved" sexism and actively mock women for feeling uncomfortable in today's culture when shit like that happens so blatantly - and on such a public scale! It's just upsetting Thanks for the upload though, I always enjoy your longform content! It's nice to see more people talking about the subject, maybe it'll raise some awareness and hopefully get some people to be more mindful
As some one who watches and plays woman's sports and on mixed teams. There is a skill gap between men and women due to biology but it is shortening. Especially in western countries were womans sports are at least somewhat celebrated and encouraged. The problem with pay in womans sports is directly tied to how many many people watch. Yes people tune in to finals and into key games but there isn't a steady viewership all season. For example i live in Canada where hockey is big. Everytime our womans national team plays the US the games sell out but there is hardly anyone watching the games they do between championships and tournaments where they play mens junior teams. My point is you want to support womans sports, watch womans sports. It is a different game (not worse) than the mens. Look at is such. It is also in general A LOT cheaper to watch then the mens. For example i enjoy pro womans soccer more than the mens. I think it is a better game, with better teamwork, and with a lot fewer dramatics.
Ty for breaking this down cause playing the same game *differently*, utilising different strategy angles and skillsets to achieve the same (literal) goals due to the aerodynamics and other physical dynamics of biological difference in body structure DOES NOT equate to men being superior I'm so mad about the default assumption being "you can't put men and women against each other cause men are naturally better"
What is it with all these bitter WNBA players trying to tear down a younger woman who has done more to promote the game these past four years than the WNBA marketing team has done in decades? Like when Breonna Stewart said that Clark’s legacy isn’t as great if she doesn’t win the NCAA championship. Just why? Very disappointing.
women only need to be twice as good as other women. NBA is open to women why would she not play there? The topic of this video should be why females are so jealous of each other, and how that influences their lives negatively. Cat is already a great female basketball player and will be great in the wnba
What is the name of the worst player in the NBA? I don't know either but if it was a woman we sure would. Why? Because she would get more recognition and praise than players who are twice as good.
@@J55S for sure 100 percent!!!!. if you are the first player from India to enter the NBA you will have recognition because you are unique. I was going to say that we could compare it also with 5 foot 9 player getting a lot of attention in the NBA, but is not fair a to compare women with very short players. Since a 5 foot 9 player does have a clear handicap in the NBA and women should have no handicap just for being women , they only need to work like men and they can achieve the same.
people have been similarly awful to angel reese. her instagram comments are an absolute garbage fire. people just hate to see young talented women succeeding and getting attention for excelling in a male dominated sport. tale as old as time unfortunately
I've been religiously watching Iowa Women's Basketball since the tournament in 2023 and have so much love for Caitlin. Watching these absolute ding dongs think they can take her 1v1 makes my blood boil. Thank you for brining this issue to light on your channel because a GOAT should never be treated like this!! Yet here we are!!
I never watched Women's NBA before when I saw Caitlin Clark play basketball I got hooked on watching her every game. Its insane how she pass the ball and shoot
caitlin clark is single handedly inspiring millions of young girls to take basketball seriously. this leads to more people taking their kids to woman’s games, which leads to more sponsors , which leads to more spots. in the next decade the WNBA will be profitable. the NBA wasn’t until the 90s when watching basketball became more popular
lets hope so:) !!!!!!! the market for women's sports will be mostly women, please convince your girl friends that sports are cool and nice to see like soap operas on Netflix :)
This just seems like insecurity and jealousy. @7:00 we love the equality. 😂 @10:20 I can definitely see all the transvestigators going after her. Don’t bother trying to argue with people like that. They literally think every celebrity ever is trans and half the time their reasoning is that they have wide shoulders or a manly walk. Or they target someone who was a child actor before so we have like so much info about them from a young age, how do they think they’re trans. These people are just wack.
I work at a country club and the men will go out of their way to put on women's sports bc they're actually interested in the sports (not for gross reasons). I have never seen that before. The guys have been raving about Caitlin, her stats, and they'll literally say she's better than most men.
imo the only people who hate Clark are those who are insecure or misogynistic. I've seen a video of a bunch of people, even dudes, admit that Clark would beat them in a 1 v 1
I don't see this kind of news, but I also mute it as soon as it pops up. I hate that it always comes down to conversations about brute strength, when basketball is about skill and precision (strength helps but still)
OK, I just found this channel and finished the one on the Mormon sodas and I’m onto this one. I’m hooked.!! Literally laughing my butt off here. New subscriber.
"Men will not buy the fact that a woman is this talented at what she does" That is untrue. The men are excited as hell to see her play, and Ice Cube offered her $15M to join his currently all mens league
FYI this is not the mainstream opinion. Everyone from most sport anchors to basketball enthusiasts I know like her a lot. I personally dont even care much for basketball, but I learned more about the game thanks to her than lebron and jordan combined.
it's like the whole Riley Gaines and Lia Thomas thing where people claim Thomas (a trans woman) took Riley's first place medal at the Olympics. They. Tied. For. Fifth. At. US. Championships. Yes, Lia did go on to win in other events, but in the showdown with Riley Gaines there were 4 women who beat BOTH of them in the USA ALONE. why do people think Lia and Riley tied for first at the Olympics? 1. they secretly don't believe a woman who isn't trans could ever beat a trans woman...so clearly it was a tie for first on the global stage - it's the sexist believe that (despite 200 free not even being Lia's best event) bio women are so biologically inferior to bio men that it is literally impossible for a bio woman to beat a bio man regardless of the circumstances (let alone for 4 to do it in a single country - not even the Olympics...even though, again, 200 free is not Lia's best event event). 2. the media never really bothers to question this, post the names of the 4 women who beat them both (literally nearly impossible to find, the focus is *entirely* on Lia and Riley because clearly female athletes do not matter no matter how good they are unless they are Instagram famous like Riley is or play into a narrative...yes ladies, we have no value even if we literally win a national championship and are not even worth naming unless we can be used to in someone who doesn't even follow our sport's post on Facebook as rage bait!), or in any way counter that the four women who beat them both have any value - like, it's insane, I can't even find their names...do you know how messed up that is? Same with this, people are getting mad and focusing on Caitlin Clark exclusively because some men are butt hurt that their 5,6" selves couldn't beat a basketball player who is turning pro...because how dare we suggest a woman is better at a man than anything ever. Oh! And assuming women who do well in sports *must* be trans - so disgusting! Especially these people who claim to be "defending women's sports". Look, I know there are issues with how to safely include trans people in sports (especially those that involve pure sprinting like swimming can) that may take us some time to fully sort out, but if you're response to a woman being good at sports is "well, she must be trans" doesn't actually seem like you give a single shit about women in sports so why are you even commenting? Like, these people clearly just care about depicting women are biologically helpless and are just using "defend women's sports" as a more socially accepted way to voice their opinion if they don't actually believe that women can be good at sports unless they are bio male. No jokes, on discussions of the Lia Thomas Riley Gaines thing AND this, I've literally seen people who claim to be feminists being like "it's not that women are biologically inferior, their bodies are just made for other things, like comforting their husbands and making babies." - 2024 people!
Caitlin, I stopped following the NBA a number of years ago. It wasn't fun anymore. I've never followed the WNBA, but I will when you get there. I think you're astounding. Keep your head in the game and disregard the superfluous. I'm looking forward to watching you.
I agreed with everything you said, but the salaries are what they are for a reason. The nba makes Billions in revenue, while the wnba barely breaks even. If there is no revenue, there is no high salaries. Caitlin Clark will change that, like Tiger Woods did for golf. I never watched the wnba and very little women's college, but I watched more last year bc of Clark than I have since I started sports. To be honest, I only keep up with the nba in the playoffs, but I am a big college b ball fan. She will definitely make the wnba more relavent, and I will stay in tuned bc of her.
Also, we use the same platform for our stats for school basketball, and all the schools he plays are garbage and have been ranked the lowest in NJ for the past couple of years for boys’ basketball. On the other hand, Caitlin was scoring 40+ points against probably the top teams in her state and playing high-level competition, you can even see in her film she plays against other D1 recruits including some that were on her old team.
I am British and have never given a shit about sports in the slightest and even I can see the way she’s being treated is complete bullshit. She is taking this in stride and I respect that but she really shouldn’t HAVE to deal with this. She’s doing the sport she loves and she’s doing it well. She seems to be trying to stay out of drama as much as possible. That should be a good thing! What disgusts me more than the dudes that treat her like shit - because at this point I could see that coming before I even clicked on the video - is the women, especially the women who are also basketball players, because they know what she goes through to get to where she is and they STILL act like that. This isn’t to say she has to be perfect to be respected. She doesn’t. People are people. She’s allowed to make mistakes, just like any other athlete. She’s human and should be treated as such, not held to a higher standard.
No, this is not the "dusty Manopocolypse." The majority of hate coming at Clark is from jealous WNBA players. The WNBA is a joke. Clark is bringing interest to the cruddy league which is crap at best. Also, don't discount how the black WNBA players hate Clark because she is white. If I were Clark, I'd play 1 year and then quit the WNBA and watch it fold. Then I'd collect on my endorsements and watch the WNBA fold. Clark will be fine ...
Tyler. This is in response to the man who thought Caitlin would not necessarily measure up to Steph Curry (though I thought his comment was reasonable). In the Decemeber 20, 2023 issue of "The Athletic," they crunched the numbers, using Caitlin's last two years (at the time) of 3-point shots from 25 to 30 feet out. Note: Didn't matter that the three-point arcs are different in men's and women's courts; the stats were based on "distance" from the hoop. She did quite well. The amount of time taken for the pros wasn't specified. Still, the stats are impressive: In shooting efficiency, here are the results: Caitlin - 42.9%, Curry - 42%, Damian Lillard - 38.5%, and Sabrina Ionescu (who's taken part in a 3-point exhibition with Curry) - 32.9%.
I think the guys who said they'd win probably don't realize that Caitlin plays against men basically every day. Granted, they are in practice and obviously wouldn't be rough on her, but it's not like she has zero experience against men. She also has two brothers and played a lot of ball against them as well. As for the salary, you do need to divide the 650k number by 2 since the WNBA plays half the number of games. Still not comparable, but slightly better. The commissioner has also explained in a previous interview that the $76k is based salary. There's bonuses and goals that can bump it up to the $500k area. I'd assume whatever those are, Clark is going to hit them. I'd guess the Jersey sales thing is from necessity; if you can't pay the bills, you got to save every penny. Just like the sudden change in chartered flights, it wouldn't shock me if that also changes this year as well. Growing women's sports is one of her true passions, and I think she understands that the WNBA isn't in the best shape right now. There's a ton of talent, but has been unsuccessful in the financial side. So I think things like the jersey sales and salary are important, but she's getting to do her childhood dream and so the money probably isn't the most important to her right now. I've had lower paying jobs myself that I enjoyed what I did and those were superior to jobs that paid more but I disliked what I did.
I for the life of me don’t understand how it’s not common knowledge that EVERYONE HAS AN ADAM’S APPLE. Yes women have them too. Women, if you tilt your head back you can usually find it by feeling the front of your neck. The reason men’s are usually more prominent/noticeable is because of differences in how we develop during puberty. However, because everyone’s hormone levels, etc are different, women can also develop more prominent Adam’s apples sometimes. Similarly some men don’t develop a prominent Adam’s apple. It’s wild to me that people are still confused by this.
I feel like the Caitlin & Steph comparisons are disingenuous, they’re two totally different players. Steph’s got a much better handle, Clark’s a better passer, Steph does his most damage off-ball, Clark’s on-ball almost all the time, etc. it’s almost like comparing a hummer to an F-1, just two totally different things.
i know absolutely zilch about sports, but i know that she should be making much more money than that. most women sports are woefully underfunded, under-advertised. while i support trash-talking, if they resort to transphobia during it that’s not trash-talk that’s discrimination
People Need To Stop Worrying, Gossipping, Stay In Thier Own Lane, Mind Their Own Business, Leave Caitlin Clark Alone, and Allowing Her To Live Her Life."
On the flip side of CC's accession, she's been giving us prime examples of white privilege in action all season long, mainly because of how sports media and her stans treat her. A great example in any comment section (including this one) people will say that the WNBA is only relevant because of her, completely disrespecting/ignoring the Black women who paved the way. IDK how much you are following the WNBA but a CC follow-up video, once she's knocked out of the playoffs (if she makes it), would be so fetch. A lot of her stans have been using her name to be racist/homophobic against other WNBA players all season long.
Men who don't know her say they can beat her, men who do know it'd be tough but among NBA players, Caitlin gets the respect she deserves while the wnba mostly hates her. Caitlin already broke records in her wnba debute, she sold out tickets.
I don’t get why other WNBA players would bring her down. The WNBA is already seen as a joke. Even if you’re not a fan, build her up make her seem as good as possible so men can realize that women can be just as good if not better than male players.
I’ve always found all sports excruciatingly boring, was with my in laws who love ALL sports and a game was on where Caitlyn was playing. I was absolutely MESMERIZED by her playing. It was incredible to watch. I still don’t watch sports consistently now, but even I can agree she is awesome
Caitlin Clark is crushing it, on and off the court. I wish she got compensated fairly for being the dominate force in her league. It's wild to me that some people can't handle a female being so successful. Like, how can you be rooting against half the human population so much?
I do not watch “MEN” play basketball ball, because it is ALL ABOUT “ME” !!! I am the GOAT!!! I have found I like watching Caitlin Clark play , because she is a TEAM SHOW!! She gives credit to the team, they become better. They all get to play & make baskets. She does not have to carry them or SCREAM “ I AM THE {GOAT}”!!!! You get to enjoy a game!! I enjoy watching the team play!!! I did not know anyone on the team. I do now. I also see a “ELEGANCE “ to the team & how they play together.
I'm a millenial who isn't very online and this is my first exposure to the idea of the "millennial pause" and I feel so called out. Sometimes my brain just... freezes and I can't think of the next word 😭
I'm trans, I am actually terrible at basketball and played a lot with friends when I was young. Idk why trans people are stereotyped even harder than cis people when they are literally getting away from their agab
Moreover she seems very mature and sweet. Many will be inspired by her. As a result, there will be more of Cailin Clark in WNBA. That's gonna change the whole freaking chaos society in a better way. BTW, mark my words, she will coach a few champions of both NBA and WNBA as well. One person can have that power if the society support her or him.
So I use to play ball with Shanna Crossley who was the best 3 point shooter in the league and she barely made like 35k at the time. It’s pretty ridiculous
im fairly certain most high school girls that play basketball could beat me in a 1 on 1 game. in fact im sure of it. maybe middle school girls too. cailtlin clark would probably beat me with her arms tied behind her back and hopping on 1 leg. maybe blind folded. i think its weird that so many people would be emotionally involved like this.
Wow, there are some demented, insane, crazy people in our world.... More power to your channel... Love this video! Love Caitlin Clark... can't wait to watch her play more. She's made me want to watch wnba...
You'd think that the NBA would look at Caitlin Clark and go "Hm, we could take advantage of this cultural phenomenon and bring that momentum to this whole league and make a shitload of money," and hopefully they will. Mens' and Womens' basketball are pretty much the same sport. That's another thing I don't get, why don't more sports fans like mens' and womens' versions of the sports? You could have double the games you love, why are you being dumb about this?
I’ve never heard of any of these men and when she looked up the basketball career of the 5 foot 6 guy I was confused because, assuming he had a minute of basketball experience in his life wasn’t on my radar
Marketing is easily the biggest thing stopping the WNBA from making money and getting fans. If even a fraction of the money put into NBA marketing went into the WNBA it would see a huge jump in popularity.
@@fkcombustion I'll give you that right now the WNBA's annual revenue is about 2% that of the NBA, but The WNBA makes about half the revenue per team that the NBA did in 2000 yet has nearly none of the comparable advertising and marketing as the NBA at that time. WNBA viewership and profit keeps increasing, but the effort to market them and advertise them isn't there. Attribute that to what you will, but it isn't the players fault who put out an excellent product every year.
@@izydas4122 because they probably tried advertising and it led nowhere, leading them to invest their money more wisely elsewhere. I doubt it’s malicious, likely just economics
It is basically the same game although there are some slight differences. The main thing is how much cheaper the tickets are for the WNBA. In these times of high inflation, it's a much better deal.
Maybe men would lose to her but we had Rapinoe screaming at men about pay and talent and how her team was the best and then they lost 7-nil to a 15 yr old boys team . Even Sarina said she wouldn’t get a point against a guy ranked over 500 in the world . , so you can understand why we raise eyebrows
what irks me most is that men will literally act like all this hate is from women bc "women be petty" 😑😑 like I'm not saying no women hate her but are we fr more upset with Angel Reese's trash talk then whatever tf AB said here?? it's so frustrating to watch men be fans of her yet so eager to put the other women players down to "humble" them. it all feels like it comes from a place of men thinking they know better than women even when these women have been involved YEARS (some decades!!) before them 🙄
CC is a class act Period .. always team mates Coaches and Fans first .These anti CC pod cast it’s all click bait Keep your self serving comments to your self .We Have Eyes 👀 That Don’t lie
Noone hates her. Shes an amazing player. They hate her disrespectful fans, and media talking heads, that feel the need to remind us every 2 seconds that "everyone" is only watching the wnba now because of Clark, and that the players should be kissing her (non existent) ring. Its obnoxious. Enjoy her greatness and her bringing attention to the league without crapping on the other players and the league its self
All great players get hate until they win so much people have to accept it. Especially when the media anoints them the next great. Patty Mahomes gets hate, Lebron got hate for years until he won a chip then people said “he had to move for it” it’s crazy but it’s just how it is when the media builds up an athlete especially when they don’t win a championship Also the pro athletes that said they would win isn’t crazy I mean they wouldn’t have gotten where they are by having a losing mindset or even a realistic mindset
WNBA can't mess up with Clark and their current draft class. The league needs to market this draft class and next year effectively. The WNBA could be the fastest growing sports league in the world. If the WNBA markets Clark markets their young talent properly. WNBA has failed in the past. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for the WNBA. They can't mess this up not like in the past

I’ve never commented before, but this issue of men being dismissive of female athletes and underpaying female athletes. I wrestle for my high school and I’m the first and only female wrestler. I’ve had to wrestle boys and ngl most of the times I lost (although I have pinned 4, 1 on JV and 3 on varsity). I always feel like I have to win to prove that girls wrestling is actually decent, which is so bs because honestly I’m not the best. It’s my 3rd year wrestling and I did take 7th in states, but they’re are so many girls who are nationally and internationally ranked who would smoke these boys. Even if the boys did wrestle these girls and lost they’d make some b.s excuse for it. Like even though I’m better than most of the guys in my team and I beat them in practice they’ll still be like “I wrecked you at practice and you suck.” I’ve basically been called every slur and my accomplishments are always undermined by the boys on the team. Honestly, as long as we women enjoy female sports and we support each other that’s all that matters. We don’t need men’s validation and frankly we’ll never even get it so why try.

She is a TEAM PLAYER…. she does not hog the ball… she gives CREDIT to her teammates!!! I like watching THE TEAM PLAY!!!
@tarverr.mcknightjr4439 what you’re saying isn’t really the main point of my comment. I was just saying how guys pick on me for wrestling like they do to Caitlin Clark. And you’re right, I’m don’t watch basketball because I haven’t played since I was little. BUT I did watch all the Olympic trials for women’s wrestling on TH-cam and I plan on watching the real thing on the tv. Basketball isn’t really my thing but I’ll make a point to watch one of her games now. Honesty I don’t want to argue but I feel like you didn’t actually read what I wrote. But yk what, have a great day! 💗
i love being a lesbian bc in my reality everyone is obsessed with her i did not know anyone who had heard of her didn’t love her
You live a very sheltered existence.

@vincemarino1939 people existing in communities that dont center (or actively decenter) the male gaze and mens opinions and perspectives, and where women tend to uplift each other for their personalities, skills and talents really threatens you huh
@@honey6610 No. Life is good. You obviously don't know anything about WNBA culture. The queer women are the majority and often many are not accepting of straight players. Many retired straight players tell about the shit they took from queer players. Especially clean cut girls like Caitlin. Part of the image problem the league has always had. Should be about the hoops but it is not.
She has done more for women's basketball than any player before her. Her WNBA debut was SOLD OUT. She is a great shooter, but her vision to see the open player or make a play is incredible. This last NCAA tournament was incredibly fun to watch. She brought in the fans, which benefits all the players/teams.
Would love to see her wipe the floor with these idiots who think they can beat her 😂
We need a study on why men who say Caitlyn Clark will beat them become 10x more attractive
Its the truth. Thats attractive.
LeBron will beat them even harder right? pros against amateurs,

Stop praising the bare minimum
Most of these "Men" are actually BOYS, Jaw Jacking about How Good They Wish They Were.
Selling Wolf Tickets is all they're doing
10:12 I’m so disappointed with people, as soon as I saw a woman outperforming men at basketball I was 100% sure that there would be transphobia, and it really hurts me deeply how all these men are so threatened by a woman simply being good at something, that they resort to such a low and hateful blow such as transphobia. My heart goes out to all the trans people and all the people hurt by the transvestigators. It’s truly vile.
I feel like transvestigators are considered dumb even by average transphobes. That’s how weird they are.
Saying she is trans is pathetic, but it is because she is outperforming women. She isn't outperforming men at basketball. They don't play together.
Seek Help Immediately, Dip Stick
People just love resorting to it for no reason. I remember when lady gaga was accused of being a dude just for being boxer shaped.
When people make those claims, they know it's not true, they just want to hurt someone.
Lesbians are hating on her , men love Caitlin.
She is the only woman I know the name of in WNBA . I don't care about the existence of others at all lmao .
cant believe we have you out doing interviews😭😭 this is everything
The whole Antonio Brown situation is really disgusting. It's so fricking creepy and I don't know why he didn't get way more shit from it (but I guess that should be expected from twitter). I don't know how right wing goobers and reactionaries can act like we've "solved" sexism and actively mock women for feeling uncomfortable in today's culture when shit like that happens so blatantly - and on such a public scale! It's just upsetting
Thanks for the upload though, I always enjoy your longform content! It's nice to see more people talking about the subject, maybe it'll raise some awareness and hopefully get some people to be more mindful
i like the noise you’re using for bleeping in this video. it’s gentler on the ears than actual bleeps …. thank you
As some one who watches and plays woman's sports and on mixed teams. There is a skill gap between men and women due to biology but it is shortening. Especially in western countries were womans sports are at least somewhat celebrated and encouraged.
The problem with pay in womans sports is directly tied to how many many people watch. Yes people tune in to finals and into key games but there isn't a steady viewership all season.
For example i live in Canada where hockey is big. Everytime our womans national team plays the US the games sell out but there is hardly anyone watching the games they do between championships and tournaments where they play mens junior teams.
My point is you want to support womans sports, watch womans sports.
It is a different game (not worse) than the mens. Look at is such. It is also in general A LOT cheaper to watch then the mens.
For example i enjoy pro womans soccer more than the mens. I think it is a better game, with better teamwork, and with a lot fewer dramatics.
Ty for breaking this down cause playing the same game *differently*, utilising different strategy angles and skillsets to achieve the same (literal) goals due to the aerodynamics and other physical dynamics of biological difference in body structure DOES NOT equate to men being superior I'm so mad about the default assumption being "you can't put men and women against each other cause men are naturally better"
@@stephe1506The worst player in the AHL would look like Connor Mcdavid if you dropped him into the PWHL. Sorry but that’s the truth.
What is it with all these bitter WNBA players trying to tear down a younger woman who has done more to promote the game these past four years than the WNBA marketing team has done in decades? Like when Breonna Stewart said that Clark’s legacy isn’t as great if she doesn’t win the NCAA championship. Just why? Very disappointing.
Because Breonna was on a stacked team that could gave won without her and she is delusional.
@@Oneanddone14 no one here cares about your opinion male
Women have to be twice as good as men at EVERYTHING and they still don’t get the recognition and praise they deserve
women only need to be twice as good as other women. NBA is open to women why would she not play there? The topic of this video should be why females are so jealous of each other, and how that influences their lives negatively. Cat is already a great female basketball player and will be great in the wnba
What is the name of the worst player in the NBA? I don't know either but if it was a woman we sure would. Why? Because she would get more recognition and praise than players who are twice as good.
@@J55S for sure 100 percent!!!!. if you are the first player from India to enter the NBA you will have recognition because you are unique. I was going to say that we could compare it also with 5 foot 9 player getting a lot of attention in the NBA, but is not fair a to compare women with very short players. Since a 5 foot 9 player does have a clear handicap in the NBA and women should have no handicap just for being women , they only need to work like men and they can achieve the same.
That is an absurd thing for an adult to say. Maybe from a 14 year old who just watched Barbie.
@@winspainking4984 Achieve what? Play in the NBA? They can try if they want. That woman doesn't exist currently, but a woman eventually may do it.

Lmao love this
people have been similarly awful to angel reese. her instagram comments are an absolute garbage fire. people just hate to see young talented women succeeding and getting attention for excelling in a male dominated sport. tale as old as time unfortunately
How is woman's basketball a male dominated sport
@@huemungus5321 basketball** is a male dominated sport. don’t be dense
I've been religiously watching Iowa Women's Basketball since the tournament in 2023 and have so much love for Caitlin. Watching these absolute ding dongs think they can take her 1v1 makes my blood boil. Thank you for brining this issue to light on your channel because a GOAT should never be treated like this!! Yet here we are!!
Put together a graph showing the age, gender and race of those that say they "hate" her, I think you already know how that will turn out.
Yeah it is mostly black women hating cause a white girl is better at basketball than them
As someone who's seen antonio brown's career the last 5 years, there isn't much more sanity left to chip away at lol
I never watched Women's NBA before when I saw Caitlin Clark play basketball I got hooked on watching her every game. Its insane how she pass the ball and shoot
Thank you for making commentary videos on topics that most TH-camrs don’t!
Girlll trust you WILL see crazy channel growth. You’re the best and I really hope you keep at this. I see you!!!!
What a nice comment! Thank you!!!
caitlin clark is single handedly inspiring millions of young girls to take basketball seriously. this leads to more people taking their kids to woman’s games, which leads to more sponsors , which leads to more spots. in the next decade the WNBA will be profitable. the NBA wasn’t until the 90s when watching basketball became more popular
lets hope so:) !!!!!!! the market for women's sports will be mostly women, please convince your girl friends that sports are cool and nice to see like soap operas on Netflix :)
This just seems like insecurity and jealousy.
@7:00 we love the equality. 😂
@10:20 I can definitely see all the transvestigators going after her. Don’t bother trying to argue with people like that. They literally think every celebrity ever is trans and half the time their reasoning is that they have wide shoulders or a manly walk. Or they target someone who was a child actor before so we have like so much info about them from a young age, how do they think they’re trans. These people are just wack.
I once saw them argue that Holly Madison was secretly trans.
@@katelynw3213I've seen someone try that about Zendaya

Thank you so much 😭💗💗💗
I love people in completely different sports claiming they can beat her. Just because you do a sport doesnt mean you're good at anything else.
And then men wonder why women pick the bear 😊
I don’t care about sports but I do care about supporting women so this video is awesome!!! Thank you🙌🏻🫶🏻
You're the best!
I work at a country club and the men will go out of their way to put on women's sports bc they're actually interested in the sports (not for gross reasons). I have never seen that before. The guys have been raving about Caitlin, her stats, and they'll literally say she's better than most men.
She could hang in the NBA as well. She really is that incredible!
These guys who think they can beat her 1 on 1 are delusional.
If I played Caitlin Clark, my ankles would be reduced to powder
imo the only people who hate Clark are those who are insecure or misogynistic. I've seen a video of a bunch of people, even dudes, admit that Clark would beat them in a 1 v 1
I don't see this kind of news, but I also mute it as soon as it pops up. I hate that it always comes down to conversations about brute strength, when basketball is about skill and precision (strength helps but still)

"Men will not buy the fact that a woman is this talented at what she does"
That is untrue. The men are excited as hell to see her play, and Ice Cube offered her $15M to join his currently all mens league
I MET CAITLIN CLARK SHES SO NICE
This is WAY bigger than simply sports. Unfortunately the haters on both side are coming out of the woodwork. Ladies-get it together !
FYI this is not the mainstream opinion. Everyone from most sport anchors to basketball enthusiasts I know like her a lot. I personally dont even care much for basketball, but I learned more about the game thanks to her than lebron and jordan combined.
it's like the whole Riley Gaines and Lia Thomas thing where people claim Thomas (a trans woman) took Riley's first place medal at the Olympics. They. Tied. For. Fifth. At. US. Championships. Yes, Lia did go on to win in other events, but in the showdown with Riley Gaines there were 4 women who beat BOTH of them in the USA ALONE. why do people think Lia and Riley tied for first at the Olympics? 1. they secretly don't believe a woman who isn't trans could ever beat a trans woman...so clearly it was a tie for first on the global stage - it's the sexist believe that (despite 200 free not even being Lia's best event) bio women are so biologically inferior to bio men that it is literally impossible for a bio woman to beat a bio man regardless of the circumstances (let alone for 4 to do it in a single country - not even the Olympics...even though, again, 200 free is not Lia's best event event). 2. the media never really bothers to question this, post the names of the 4 women who beat them both (literally nearly impossible to find, the focus is *entirely* on Lia and Riley because clearly female athletes do not matter no matter how good they are unless they are Instagram famous like Riley is or play into a narrative...yes ladies, we have no value even if we literally win a national championship and are not even worth naming unless we can be used to in someone who doesn't even follow our sport's post on Facebook as rage bait!), or in any way counter that the four women who beat them both have any value - like, it's insane, I can't even find their names...do you know how messed up that is?
Same with this, people are getting mad and focusing on Caitlin Clark exclusively because some men are butt hurt that their 5,6" selves couldn't beat a basketball player who is turning pro...because how dare we suggest a woman is better at a man than anything ever.
Oh! And assuming women who do well in sports *must* be trans - so disgusting! Especially these people who claim to be "defending women's sports". Look, I know there are issues with how to safely include trans people in sports (especially those that involve pure sprinting like swimming can) that may take us some time to fully sort out, but if you're response to a woman being good at sports is "well, she must be trans" doesn't actually seem like you give a single shit about women in sports so why are you even commenting? Like, these people clearly just care about depicting women are biologically helpless and are just using "defend women's sports" as a more socially accepted way to voice their opinion if they don't actually believe that women can be good at sports unless they are bio male.
No jokes, on discussions of the Lia Thomas Riley Gaines thing AND this, I've literally seen people who claim to be feminists being like "it's not that women are biologically inferior, their bodies are just made for other things, like comforting their husbands and making babies." - 2024 people!
Caitlin, I stopped following the NBA a number of years ago. It wasn't fun anymore. I've never followed the WNBA, but I will when you get there. I think you're astounding. Keep your head in the game and disregard the superfluous. I'm looking forward to watching you.
I agreed with everything you said, but the salaries are what they are for a reason. The nba makes Billions in revenue, while the wnba barely breaks even. If there is no revenue, there is no high salaries. Caitlin Clark will change that, like Tiger Woods did for golf. I never watched the wnba and very little women's college, but I watched more last year bc of Clark than I have since I started sports. To be honest, I only keep up with the nba in the playoffs, but I am a big college b ball fan. She will definitely make the wnba more relavent, and I will stay in tuned bc of her.
Also, we use the same platform for our stats for school basketball, and all the schools he plays are garbage and have been ranked the lowest in NJ for the past couple of years for boys’ basketball. On the other hand, Caitlin was scoring 40+ points against probably the top teams in her state and playing high-level competition, you can even see in her film she plays against other D1 recruits including some that were on her old team.
"Except raise our sons not to suck"
I love you.
I am British and have never given a shit about sports in the slightest and even I can see the way she’s being treated is complete bullshit.
She is taking this in stride and I respect that but she really shouldn’t HAVE to deal with this. She’s doing the sport she loves and she’s doing it well. She seems to be trying to stay out of drama as much as possible. That should be a good thing!
What disgusts me more than the dudes that treat her like shit - because at this point I could see that coming before I even clicked on the video - is the women, especially the women who are also basketball players, because they know what she goes through to get to where she is and they STILL act like that.
This isn’t to say she has to be perfect to be respected. She doesn’t. People are people. She’s allowed to make mistakes, just like any other athlete. She’s human and should be treated as such, not held to a higher standard.
No, this is not the "dusty Manopocolypse." The majority of hate coming at Clark is from jealous WNBA players. The WNBA is a joke. Clark is bringing interest to the cruddy league which is crap at best. Also, don't discount how the black WNBA players hate Clark because she is white. If I were Clark, I'd play 1 year and then quit the WNBA and watch it fold. Then I'd collect on my endorsements and watch the WNBA fold. Clark will be fine ...
Tyler. This is in response to the man who thought Caitlin would not necessarily measure up to Steph Curry (though I thought his comment was reasonable). In the Decemeber 20, 2023 issue of "The Athletic," they crunched the numbers, using Caitlin's last two years (at the time) of 3-point shots from 25 to 30 feet out. Note: Didn't matter that the three-point arcs are different in men's and women's courts; the stats were based on "distance" from the hoop. She did quite well. The amount of time taken for the pros wasn't specified. Still, the stats are impressive: In shooting efficiency, here are the results: Caitlin - 42.9%, Curry - 42%, Damian Lillard - 38.5%, and Sabrina Ionescu (who's taken part in a 3-point exhibition with Curry) - 32.9%.
I think the guys who said they'd win probably don't realize that Caitlin plays against men basically every day. Granted, they are in practice and obviously wouldn't be rough on her, but it's not like she has zero experience against men. She also has two brothers and played a lot of ball against them as well.
As for the salary, you do need to divide the 650k number by 2 since the WNBA plays half the number of games. Still not comparable, but slightly better. The commissioner has also explained in a previous interview that the $76k is based salary. There's bonuses and goals that can bump it up to the $500k area. I'd assume whatever those are, Clark is going to hit them.
I'd guess the Jersey sales thing is from necessity; if you can't pay the bills, you got to save every penny. Just like the sudden change in chartered flights, it wouldn't shock me if that also changes this year as well.
Growing women's sports is one of her true passions, and I think she understands that the WNBA isn't in the best shape right now. There's a ton of talent, but has been unsuccessful in the financial side. So I think things like the jersey sales and salary are important, but she's getting to do her childhood dream and so the money probably isn't the most important to her right now. I've had lower paying jobs myself that I enjoyed what I did and those were superior to jobs that paid more but I disliked what I did.
I for the life of me don’t understand how it’s not common knowledge that EVERYONE HAS AN ADAM’S APPLE.
Yes women have them too. Women, if you tilt your head back you can usually find it by feeling the front of your neck.
The reason men’s are usually more prominent/noticeable is because of differences in how we develop during puberty. However, because everyone’s hormone levels, etc are different, women can also develop more prominent Adam’s apples sometimes. Similarly some men don’t develop a prominent Adam’s apple.
It’s wild to me that people are still confused by this.
I dont know who some of these guys are but numerous NBA players have given caitlin tons of respect. These guys are delusional. She is awesome.
The Indiana fever is my home team and yall have no idea how excited I am to watch her play in person this summer
Honestly the guys who said theyd win in your interviews still seemed really respectful
It's not Impossible to be Both Respectful and Delusional, at the same time
@@dwightcurrie8316True dat 😅
I feel like the Caitlin & Steph comparisons are disingenuous, they’re two totally different players. Steph’s got a much better handle, Clark’s a better passer, Steph does his most damage off-ball, Clark’s on-ball almost all the time, etc. it’s almost like comparing a hummer to an F-1, just two totally different things.
i know absolutely zilch about sports, but i know that she should be making much more money than that. most women sports are woefully underfunded, under-advertised. while i support trash-talking, if they resort to transphobia during it that’s not trash-talk that’s discrimination

On the flip side of CC's accession, she's been giving us prime examples of white privilege in action all season long, mainly because of how sports media and her stans treat her.
A great example in any comment section (including this one) people will say that the WNBA is only relevant because of her, completely disrespecting/ignoring the Black women who paved the way.
IDK how much you are following the WNBA but a CC follow-up video, once she's knocked out of the playoffs (if she makes it), would be so fetch. A lot of her stans have been using her name to be racist/homophobic against other WNBA players all season long.
Men who don't know her say they can beat her, men who do know it'd be tough but among NBA players, Caitlin gets the respect she deserves while the wnba mostly hates her. Caitlin already broke records in her wnba debute, she sold out tickets.
I don’t get why other WNBA players would bring her down. The WNBA is already seen as a joke. Even if you’re not a fan, build her up make her seem as good as possible so men can realize that women can be just as good if not better than male players.
I’ve always found all sports excruciatingly boring, was with my in laws who love ALL sports and a game was on where Caitlyn was playing. I was absolutely MESMERIZED by her playing. It was incredible to watch. I still don’t watch sports consistently now, but even I can agree she is awesome
Caitlin Clark is crushing it, on and off the court. I wish she got compensated fairly for being the dominate force in her league. It's wild to me that some people can't handle a female being so successful. Like, how can you be rooting against half the human population so much?
I do not watch “MEN” play basketball ball, because it is ALL ABOUT “ME” !!! I am the GOAT!!!
I have found I like watching Caitlin Clark play , because she is a TEAM SHOW!!
She gives credit to the team, they become better.
They all get to play & make baskets. She does not have to carry them or SCREAM “ I AM THE {GOAT}”!!!!
You get to enjoy a game!! I enjoy watching the team play!!!
I did not know anyone on the team. I do now.
I also see a “ELEGANCE “ to the team & how they play together.

Love your personality. Your going to do great things.
Moreover she seems very mature and sweet. Many will be inspired by her. As a result, there will be more of Cailin Clark in WNBA. That's gonna change the whole freaking chaos society in a better way. BTW, mark my words, she will coach a few champions of both NBA and WNBA as well. One person can have that power if the society support her or him.
no one is hating her for her game, they hatin because she is white. I wish there was more to that but it is what it is.
100% Can't stand she is the face of the WNBA and selling massive amounts of tickets.
So I use to play ball with Shanna Crossley who was the best 3 point shooter in the league and she barely made like 35k at the time. It’s pretty ridiculous
Caitlin "no Championship" Clark. Caitlin "no defense" Clark. Haters are going to hate just like doubters are going to doubt
6:47 He is so fine. The height, the hair, the accent. Who is that man? Lol 😅
im fairly certain most high school girls that play basketball could beat me in a 1 on 1 game. in fact im sure of it. maybe middle school girls too. cailtlin clark would probably beat me with her arms tied behind her back and hopping on 1 leg. maybe blind folded. i think its weird that so many people would be emotionally involved like this.
No but it's always the 5'6 gremlins?!
Wow, there are some demented, insane, crazy people in our world....
More power to your channel...
Love this video!
Love Caitlin Clark... can't wait to watch her play more.
She's made me want to watch wnba...
You'd think that the NBA would look at Caitlin Clark and go "Hm, we could take advantage of this cultural phenomenon and bring that momentum to this whole league and make a shitload of money," and hopefully they will. Mens' and Womens' basketball are pretty much the same sport. That's another thing I don't get, why don't more sports fans like mens' and womens' versions of the sports? You could have double the games you love, why are you being dumb about this?
I’ve never heard of any of these men and when she looked up the basketball career of the 5 foot 6 guy I was confused because, assuming he had a minute of basketball experience in his life wasn’t on my radar
Marketing is easily the biggest thing stopping the WNBA from making money and getting fans. If even a fraction of the money put into NBA marketing went into the WNBA it would see a huge jump in popularity.
If the WNBA made even a fraction of what the NBA made they could spend more on advertising 😂😂
@@fkcombustion I'll give you that right now the WNBA's annual revenue is about 2% that of the NBA, but The WNBA makes about half the revenue per team that the NBA did in 2000 yet has nearly none of the comparable advertising and marketing as the NBA at that time. WNBA viewership and profit keeps increasing, but the effort to market them and advertise them isn't there. Attribute that to what you will, but it isn't the players fault who put out an excellent product every year.
@@izydas4122 because they probably tried advertising and it led nowhere, leading them to invest their money more wisely elsewhere. I doubt it’s malicious, likely just economics
And men will still say there isn’t a pay gap. Just look at this situation alone
It is basically the same game although there are some slight differences. The main thing is how much cheaper the tickets are for the WNBA. In these times of high inflation, it's a much better deal.
Maybe men would lose to her but we had Rapinoe screaming at men about pay and talent and how her team was the best and then they lost 7-nil to a 15 yr old boys team . Even Sarina said she wouldn’t get a point against a guy ranked over 500 in the world . , so you can understand why we raise eyebrows
what irks me most is that men will literally act like all this hate is from women bc "women be petty" 😑😑 like I'm not saying no women hate her but are we fr more upset with Angel Reese's trash talk then whatever tf AB said here?? it's so frustrating to watch men be fans of her yet so eager to put the other women players down to "humble" them. it all feels like it comes from a place of men thinking they know better than women even when these women have been involved YEARS (some decades!!) before them 🙄

"Don't try to understand women, women understand women and they hate each other." - Al Bundy
This is the first I've heard anything bit praise for her. I imagine it's just a small group of loud single men...
Noone hates her. Shes an amazing player.
They hate her disrespectful fans, and media talking heads, that feel the need to remind us every 2 seconds that "everyone" is only watching the wnba now because of Clark, and that the players should be kissing her (non existent) ring. Its obnoxious. Enjoy her greatness and her bringing attention to the league without crapping on the other players and the league its self
Thank you so much for calling attention to how ridiculous the hate around her is❤❤❤❤ we love women suppoting women in success
All great players get hate until they win so much people have to accept it. Especially when the media anoints them the next great. Patty Mahomes gets hate, Lebron got hate for years until he won a chip then people said “he had to move for it” it’s crazy but it’s just how it is when the media builds up an athlete especially when they don’t win a championship
Also the pro athletes that said they would win isn’t crazy I mean they wouldn’t have gotten where they are by having a losing mindset or even a realistic mindset
One thing you can take to the bank, Clark will not lower herself to the level of these very jealous people and that will drive them crazy.
$78k is insane. I make more than that with NONE of her skills
They do NOT get any percentage of jerseys, this is absolutely true and Kelsey plum has spoken about it.
Caitlin Clark is the only woman to be offered 5 million to play in Ice Cube's 3 on 3 men's league. The only woman period to be offered a shot.
I love Caitlin clark sm thank u for making this!!!!
WNBA can't mess up with Clark and their current draft class. The league needs to market this draft class and next year effectively. The WNBA could be the fastest growing sports league in the world. If the WNBA markets Clark markets their young talent properly. WNBA has failed in the past. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for the WNBA. They can't mess this up not like in the past
