Former MLB All-Star Ender Inciarte shared his concerns about a feature on Disney Cruise Line in a social media post on Sunday.
Inciarte said he was upset that men were dressing as women on cruises he described as more geared toward children than adults.
“Hey @DisneyCruise… love your cruises! Except for the part that there are men dressed as women,” he wrote on X. “Thought you already got over it.”
The three-time Gold Glove outfielder did not provide details about what specifically occurred on the cruise. He also responded to critics who accused him of spreading hate online.
“It wasn’t hatred or a personal attack. It was an opinion based on my convictions. I believe in respecting everyone, but also in calling things by their name without mockery or contempt. Living in peace doesn’t mean silencing one’s conscience,” he wrote in response to one comment.
In another exchange, Inciarte said: “Then where is my hate? All I am saying is having my kid enter a place where a 6ft tall guy is dressed as a woman and acting like one would traumatize my kid on a family cruise. I don’t think it’s hate; I just don’t want to normalize that behavior.” Fox News Digital reached out to Disney for comment.
Inciarte also received support from Payton McNabb, a former volleyball player involved in the Save Women’s Sports movement, which advocates against trans inclusion in women’s and girls’ sports.
Inciarte played nine seasons in Major League Baseball from 2014 to 2022, including six with the Atlanta Braves, two with the Arizona Diamondbacks, and one with the New York Mets. The Venezuelan outfielder was an All-Star in 2017 after batting .304 with 201 hits, 27 doubles, and 11 home runs.
