I don't think the Russians fool around with the whole identity thing, so....

If they put Griner in a Women's prison does that settle the issue for anyone?

Griner's obviously one of those few people who are intersex, you only have to look at her or listen to her voice to see that.

Let's just say that if there was a measuring contest, she probably wouldn't come in last at a men's prison...

This is so stupid, I hate the whole "she's a man" stick.

She is probably intersex as Silian Rail mentioned. There are a number of different types, but 0.5 to 1.0% of the population falls under some part of that umbrella. Her parents probably decided at birth to go with female, or maybe that's just what the organs are and no one ever ran genetic tests, but either way, it has nothing to do with anything Griner decided to do.

Believe the modern term is hermaphrodite. Intersex sounds like space pron.

Nothing prevents her from disclosing her condition to explain away the discrepancy between her pronouns and physical attributes / appearance.

Shes a public figure who wants to keep their privates private, thus she must deal with this ambiguity.

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quack like a duck, I am going to need some additional information for me to believe its not a duck. Its called science and such.

I've made one comment on the matter during the whole ordeal. Frankly I think she/he/they/it should rot in jail. As long as there are people imprisoned in our own country for similar offenses, we shouldn't be lifting a finger to get someone out that broke the law in a foreign country. If I was in prison in Russia and Griner wasn't, I doubt she'd give a rat's ass about whether or not I was ever freed.

Judging by your user name, guessing you white, and she would probably applaud you being in prison so you know how oppressed her people are

I think we all know Britney doesn't have a *****. However, as Silian posted, she's likely intersex. I wouldn't at all be shocked to find out she's never had a period in her life and her testosterone level is higher than a woman's but probably slightly less than a man's. She isn't a man, but she isn't fully female, either.

As much as I hate that disgusting lib, I take pride in knowing that Trump would've had her home immediately

Just like he did loud mouth Lavar ball's kid when he was stealing in China

It's a shame she was ignorant & voted Biden

So it's a controversial number, which is why I rounded down, and why I said "under some part of that umbrella".


Intersex - Wikipedia - "The number of births where the baby is intersex has been reported differently depending on who reports and which definition of intersex is used. Anne Fausto-Sterling and her co-authors suggest that the prevalence of "nondimorphic sexual development" might be as high as 1.7%"

What is Intersex? | Definition of Intersexual (plannedparenthood.org) - "It's hard to know exactly how many people are intersex, but estimates suggest that about 1-2 in 100 people born in the U.S. are intersex."

OHCHR | Intersex people - "Experts estimate that up to 1.7 percent of the population are born with intersex traits."


How common is intersex? a response to Anne Fausto-Sterling - PubMed (nih.gov) "this figure includes conditions which most clinicians do not recognize as intersex, such as Klinefelter syndrome, Turner syndrome, and late-onset adrenal hyperplasia"

These are the figures most people are referring to as hermaphroditic, not some vague catchall made up term to include as many atypicals as possible.

Quote:

Anne Fausto-Sterling's suggestion that the prevalence of intersex might be as high as 1.7% has attracted wide attention in both the scholarly press and the popular media. Many reviewers are not aware that this figure includes conditions which most clinicians do not recognize as intersex, such as Klinefelter syndrome, Turner syndrome, and late-onset adrenal hyperplasia. If the term intersex is to retain any meaning, the term should be restricted to those conditions in which chromosomal sex is inconsistent with phenotypic sex, or in which the phenotype is not classifiable as either male or female. Applying this more precise definition, the true prevalence of intersex is seen to be about 0.018%, almost 100 times lower than Fausto-Sterling s estimate of 1.7%.

For a biological condition that sometimes needs medical treatment, you would think there would be more definitive data than "experts estimate". This is grossly overestimated for political reasons.

We know exactly how many babies are born with certain conditions, but not this?

I think she's just a very masculine woman.

Just like there are very effeminate men.

But it is interesting to see how the media and a left is pushing this. If she were a white female American basketball player, she would not be getting the media push she is. And if she was a white male American basketball player, nothing. I mean what about that other guy that has been there for a while, is he just lost in all of this? And we're really considering letting go a really bad guy over a nonpolitical arrest and sentencing?

And the same people bringing their hands about this would be silent.

It is interesting seeing how anti-American she was that this would happen in Russia where she can't use any of her victim cards. I still think this sentence is too harsh but it's not our country.
Currently a happy listless vessel and deplorable. #FDEMS TRUMP 2024.

I don't hope Griner Rots in prison. I hope Griner gets the same punishment as anybody else would get for the crime she committed. No more, no less.

What I DO NOT WANT is our government doing anything above and beyond to get her release, ESPECIALLY an exchange of prisoners for a truly dangerous criminal. That's not right. It wouldn't be a fair exchange for the low level of crime she committed.

It absolutely pissed me off to see her sit on her entitled ass when the National Anthem is played. Now that she's in real trouble she squeals like a stuck pig 'Help me Joe Biden, HELP MEEEEE!!!' Griner, you don't deserve our help. You turned your back on what it means to support this country.

Now go deal with the crime you committed.

It does not matter which prison Brittney is assigned to serve the sentence. Brittney is going to get out via a Biden promoted prisoner trade pretty soon - my opinion.

Not "we," - Biden and his crew. Brittney could stay there for 9 years and it wouldn't bother me. ETA - Brittney broke Russian laws and is facing the consequences of that.

WARNING - Topless photos of Brittney Griner in the below link. Technically a woman?


WARNING Tweets in this article have topless Griner Pics.


Since Griner is publicly a woman I'm certain I would catch a ban for posting topless pics directly in this thread.

Now that said, once you see the photos, it is a man's chest.

The problem with your logic is that you're assuming the duck has the same genetics as all the other ducks. Griner has an obvious physical advantage over every other women that has played collegiate and professional basketball.

What if she's a swan that get's to compete in duck sports as long as the other ducks and swans agree she's a duck. If it turns out she's a swan and wanted to compete in duck basketball for an unfair competitive advantage, then we have the right to know and speculate on that theory.

if it walks like a swan, talks like a swan and acts like a swan, why does it get to play duck basketball?

I am okay with my logic. If she is a swan, quit calling her a duck and letting her play duck basketball.

If she is a duck, pony up with the information because most everyone thinks its something other than a duck.

There is only one reason to keep this information private, its because he has a secret that would undermine WNBA, Baylor and Kim Mulkey. There is a reason he would not submit to mandatory testing to play as a Peking duck in the olympics.

Russian drug laws are no joke.

This is from a Russian - " Depending on the quantity, one can get anything from a sizeable fine to 15 years in prison. Imprisonment is possible after 6 grams of marijuana. It becomes certain after 100 grams. The harshest punishment is reserved for possession of more than 100 kilograms.

That's for possession. One can get life in prison for active participation in the drug trade.

1/4 of Russia's prison population was convicted for drug-related offenses, primarily for possession of illegal drugs."

So, she's getting the same treatment as any native would.
