We can't say for sure whether or not Caitlin Clark is gay, since she hasn't officially commented on her sexuality. That said, she's been in a relationship with a man, Connor McCaffery, since April 2023.
Some fans (and non-fans) speculate Clark could be gay (or bi) because she was recently captured on camera watching Sophie Cunningham put her hair up with what some perceived as a flirtatious look. (If you ask me, it was just a casual glance, though.)
Other people suspect Clark is gay because of narrow-minded stereotypes about WNBA players all being lesbians. Some people have even accused Clark of being transgender, likely due to misogynistic and transphobic views of women's sports: Clark is a powerhouse in the WNBA, and some sexist and transphobic viewers might believe she couldn't be such a force without secretly being a "biological man."
Caitlin Clark isn't transgender, but we don't know her sexuality for certain. What do you think?
