@seeratsohi In all of this Azzi has been in the league for 4 days, as the person of colour has carried the burden of the scrutiny, same way she will carry the fault of any on-court failures. Maybe they do have a strategy maybe not even people with good intentions get to dictate what they do.

at the end of the pod, I went solo on Azzi Fudd’s presser, the perils of queer coupledom in a parasocial era (feels relevant) and the need for a framework to understand WNBA relationships in a way that avoids spectacle and allows for self-definition. open.spotify.com/episode/5THQYL…

@pbxaf535 I almost took it down but I think with the way the discourse is going it was important. I just heard someone push the opposite narrative that P&A need to sacrifice themselves to codify queer relationships in the wnba because otherwise it's like they are going back in the closet

Why are we having the same discussion all over again? Wasn't the broken-off engagement enough to stop the arguing? The lack of games is leaving y’all extremely unoccupied and with a lot of time to talk shit. Aren’t yall tired??

@yoncestits_ I want to know the band guy story, but will observe a moment of silence and refrain to ask in light of the recent news.

@jaguarsmollett "they should have let her answer" and when her answer was I will not comment on my personal relationships then what? the entitlement to them will never end. the wings pr has drawn the line in the sand.

Jaguar Smollett@jaguarsmollett·
So the real question is if someone tells you no, I don’t wanna talk about that. Why are all of you trying to force her to talk about it? That’s really what it boils down to. They were told they’re not going to comment and you guys lost your fucking minds. No means no.

@jaguarsmollett Cason Wallace is asked about Kiki Rice. They are both in their early 20s. Why does he not feel the need to be "protected". Protected from what?

@mode_wrd Last season there were two players in a relationship who got traded to different teams mid season and there’s video of teammates telling them to go to bed. The relationship is now part of the locker room.

Sue Bird came out publicly at 37, she talks about her challenges, the marketing pressure that was put on her. She was sexualised and left on her own to fend for herself. Candace Parker had her own story. We need to do better for young female athletes, Azzi deserves better.

@PapaDragon331 Have you seen the amount of corrective rape threats they get? Asking young women to talk about themselves their relationship and their sexuality does not come free of risk for them, if you are engaging with good intentions that is not the question you would ask nor the place.

@mode_wrd I understand there are cases of discrimination or harassment due to sexuality and not trying to dismiss those. But this is not that. You are making prejudiced assumptions & reading into it based on the gender of the questioner that feels like projection

@PapaDragon331 Yes, I do believe that the journalist who does not cover wnba and is not familiar with queer women or Black women has not engaged in the discourse with the level of understanding and sensibility that is required. So yes I do think we as a society need to do better.

@PapaDragon331 Yes, I do think the team reacted correctly. I do think society needs to do better since the discourse that has ensued. What am I projecting? The question was not about performance or the team but the STATUS of the relationship. No one is entitled to that.

@mode_wrd A) It sounds like you're saying there are boundaries and support to protect them now. So again, what exactly do we need to "Do better"? B) Stop projecting motives/assumptions to one question. A relationship between star players on a team can def affect team chemistry/performance

@treppab FAN club is different than the MEDIA. Can we stop asking for higher standards for idiots on twitter and fangirls and then let the media do whatever the fuck they want. the level of access to these young players and influence is not the same.

@alltxnfingers shows you how rotten the system is. we refuse to pay women what they are worth, if they demand recognition and compensation we need to find another way to punish them. This is the same crowd that said to take the cba, because they don't know how to fight for what you believe in.

men weaponizing this “if they want to be paid like men they should have to answer degrading and invasive questions from the media like men” argument feels like men saying they should get to hit women if women want to be treated like equals to men so badly

"The WNBA players want to be treated like grown women, yet we're treating them like little girls.... STOP IT!" – @EmmanuelAcho GOES OFF about the Dallas Wings' PR team stopping Azzi Fudd from answering questions about her relationship with teammate Paige Bueckers

@PapaDragon331 Sue as a young gay woman she had to face her own challenges and there was no one to protect her and create boundaries. The entitlement men feel about Azzi's personal life and voyeuristic curiosity about her sexuality and relationship is the new demand. Glad the pr team stepped in

@mode_wrd How are any of the challenges Bird faced at the time equivalent to Fudd getting asked a question about a relationship and letting the PR team squash it?
