The WNBA coach claims that recent disturbances perpetuate the “sexualization of women”

The WNBA continued to be prey to obscene disturbances this week while fans of the league arenas disturbed the game by throwing adult toys on the ground.

For Minnesota lynx Head coach Cheryl Reeve, the “farce”, as some call it, is much more serious than a simple viral moment.

“It has been going on for centuries-the sexualization of women,” she told journalists on Thursday after the team.

“This is the latest version of this. And it’s not funny. And it shouldn’t be the target of jokes on radio programs or on paper or in comments.”

Later in the day later and despite the Reeve pleas, an obscene object was launched on the ground during a Atlanta Dream Game in Chicago. Another sex toy would have been launched in the third quarter, but the object did not reach the court and rather landed somewhere near the dream bench.
