Ex Bayou Barbie showing some skin at The Met Gala last night.

No wonder Mattel reacted the way it did.

It is refreshing to see a female athlete that isn't dressed like Charles Barkley.

Angel Reese is a beautiful woman.

Some people will hate on everyone for no reason. A lot of WNBA players dress like dudes. They wear suits and tennis shoes when they dress up, Reese looks pretty damn good in that picture. I don't think I ever saw a WNBA player dress like that. Love it or hate it, she is dressed like a woman.

This article is from 2017 and its about a former WNBA player who is straight. She said that 98% of the WNBA is gay and that she was "bullied" for being straight.

The Guardian

If you don't like that source there are other outlets that have the story. I kind of got the impression when Reese posted pictures with her then boyfriend, who played at FSU, that she was making a statement without directly saying it. She was saying "In case there is any confusion I am straight". One thing that held the WNBA back, among other things, is that it was a lesbians club. They complained about not getting paid while holding themselves back by wanting it to be all lesbians.

I actually Angel Reese a lot of credit.. Cailin Clark.. They have made sure to let everyone who followed women's college basketball know they have a boy friend. They are going to be playing in the WNBA and just in case you get the wrong impression.. I am not gay.
