Jenner criticized the situation, stating, "Cathy, XX, you’re in. XY you’re out. It’s that simple." She expressed support for protecting women's sports and noted that the WNBA’s collective bargaining agreement specifies that only players who are women are eligible to play, but it does not define what constitutes a woman.
