I think a lot of that was a natural, bitter response to the very real sexism they face. Some of the ESPN Twitter post and community posts on YT are fucking brutal. Like legitimately disgusting in its bigotry. Bold faced misogyny, don't even try to hide it. I don't blame them for being bitter about it.
What they have now is built on everything that has been accomplished to this point. They were fighting for recognition. It didn't look pretty but fighting isn't always pretty.
Now they're ascending and I'm honestly shocked at how well they handle the bullshit. They handle unwarranted criticism better than a lot of NBA players lmao
