FULL TITLE: Basketball star Brittney Griner comes out as a lesbian and reveals how she was 'picked on for being different'

The 6-foot-8 basketball star, selected by the Phoenix Mercury after an astounding four-career at Baylor, openly discussed her sexuality with Sports Illustrated. When asked about why more female athletes were out as opposed to men, Griner replied: 'I really couldn't give an answer on why that's so different. Being one that's out, it's just being who you are.'

This is a joke, right?

As far as I know, non-lesbians are not permitted to play women's basketball.

What is he complaining about? For years, he’s been able to dress in the girls’ locker room.

If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck.....

It sure is going to be nice when America finally grows up and moves past this homosexuality fad and moves on to “the next big thing.”

Whatever it takes to oppose, criminalize, marginalize, and punish Christian beliefs, that’s what the “next big thing” will be.

She wouldn’t be the first physically freakish girl who got tired of no boys being attracted to her and gave up and decided to go lez.
