I don't think I would have been able to stick with it and been proud of who I am and be feminine out on the court. I think I would have folded to the peer pressure if I didn't have my mom to encourage me to be me and be proud of how tall I am.
I'm probably taller than 90% of the men I meet.
I think it's great for the women to show that they are women and be feminine. And that's something that I've always promoted.
When I watch kids play basketball, they don't know how to think the game. They know what it should look like, but they don't know why.
You just don't want to get pigeon-holed into one position. That's why even though I start out at center, I may play small forward, if I get a rebound and you're not there I can bring the ball up.
Actually just recently I came up with that idea, watching the movie 'Legally Blonde' and I was like, 'Cool, that's something I want to do.'
