She also says the abuse was not just from from fellow players but also from coaches and "leaders" of the league: [INDENT]There is no data on the number of gay women in the WNBA, and some commentaries about the story questioned Wiggins’ “98 percent” number. She said Tuesday that she used that figure more to be illustrative than factual. “It was my way to illustrate the isolation that I felt personally,” Wiggins said. “I felt like the 2 percent versus the 98 percent. It felt that way to me. And it’s not just the players. It was the coaches. It was the leaders.”[/INDENT] I also recommend that people watch the video of Candice commenting. It's, uh, interesting.
