The Dallas Mavericks apparently hold an NBA 101 class specifically for women annually. This year though…Twitter flipped out regarding the sexist title.
I mean, most classes that teach you something that you don’t know are 101, right? I really cannot see how it’s sexist. The tweet was stupid, but sexist? Is a Cooking 101 class for men sexist? Eh…it is what it is. Mark says he’s not changing it.
