As a husband, brother, son, and an uncle to a young niece, I thank you and Riley for standing up for womens rights. I pray my niece never has to go through this.
Just like men stood up against Dulvaney in the Bud Light commercial, women need to stand up against Maybelline. Dulvaney is in a Maybelline commercial and women need to show themselves throwing their Maybelline in the trash and burning their products. This will stop Dulvaney and any other man from doing this. Come on women, stand up!
What is interesting is that this guy seems to hold back. I say thus because when he competed against a trans male it was also a tie. That trans male was pretty doughy in comparison.
You aren't kidding, she is freaking amazing being able to hang with a 6'4" male swimmer in the 200, which is an extended sprint basically. It's really hard to fathom how absolutely gutless the NCAA has become. This shit is going to destroy sports.
The gaslighting is insane!!!! That’s awful!! Nothing they are trying to do is transphobic. It’s a genuine concern. They want to protect the activity that they love.
@Guin Biery When did "not trans inclusive" mean "transphobic?" It takes a pervert to undress in front of the opposite sex without a consensual context, and anyone could tell you that.
Just like racism and anti semitism....doesn't exist from the people they claim do it. It's lies used by criminals and hateful people to turn the table on the real victims of the real perpetrators.
If a man flashes a woman on the street, and she complaines about it, the man goes to jail. If a man flashes a woman in a locker room, and the woman complains about it, she must be "re-educated." And she loses privileges.
Only due to the influx of woke cult within our government & legal departments invading our civil rights. The beast is roaming the earth, pushing the envelope all the way. Its our responsibility to stand up for righteousness as common sense was given to us for thousands of years. No biological male belongs in female sports ever. No matter how many body parts are cut off or added.....
I’m a transsexual man and completely agree with all of this. More of us LGBT need to speak up about this. I’ve begun to do just that but still scared as hell about getting ostracized where I live. I was a leftist, no longer though. But all my friends are still lefties. I’m just glad I don’t have to worry about losing my job, I’m a disabled veteran. Keep it up Riley!
I'm speechless at this point. This man wanted to win at all costs so he decided to compete as another gender. As a former Division 1 (male) athlete, this is an absolute slap in the face for all of those women who have worked so hard in their sport. Look at the definition of a narcissist and "Lia" fits it to a tee. The woke culture is rapidly destroying the fabric of what we all know and have accepted as common sense and decency in this country.
Yes, Thomas is a total narcissistic ahole...BUT we have to condemn, call out, and SHAME those in authority that ALLOW this, and make it okay. THAT'S the problem. It's those in authority that are allowing this. And there are the monied interests that are pushing this agenda. "Transgenderism to Transhumanism" by Trans millionaire Martine Rothblatt is quite troublesome. A good YT presentation on that is by "wild willing wisdom". There are other wealthy families pushing this agenda, and those in academia, the narcissistic "trans community" are being allowed to do this garbage. Plus, we have the problem with detransitioners. Children getting puberty blockers, surgery, etc. Stop the Madness!
I appreciate you supporting women having their own sports. I don’t hate transgender people I don’t like that there are evil people who will manipulate the laws in place that men will manipulate, and use transgenderism to encroach on women’s private spaces and take away women’s rights and opportunities that we’ve fought for for all of these years.
Exactly. Keep speaking out about this. Changes are beginning to happen. Lots of women are speaking out. The media just doesn't cover it. THEY are bought off by the big money promoting this garbage.
Riley Gaines, you are a hero to so many,, especially me. You have become such a strong and resilient voice for women every where. I can't say enough about your bravery and how you're a role model to so many people. ❤❤❤
Just like men stood up against Dulvaney in the Bud Light commercial, women need to stand up against Maybelline. Dulvaney is in a Maybelline commercial and women need to show themselves throwing their Maybelline in the trash and burning their products. This will stop Dulvaney and any other man from doing this. Come on women, stand up!
Stand your ground Riley. We need others to stand up also. My eldest grandaughter is 16 y and has been playing soccer since 6 years old. Why should she miss out on sporting opportunities because a guy says " I'm a girl today " , move over ?
It's strange that we now a step further in the subject. Caster Semenya had to fight with her own money, go for test , she was cleared and she didn't have male genitalia. Way to go Raily, all of you. What's good for one is good for another's.
@Colin Weir: NIce that your granddaughter is playing a sport that its real name is football and it’s been a male sport since 1800’s in England. For me as a woman who grew up in South America, Association Football aka “soccer” for Americans will be always seen as a male sport, even women’s football is growing due to FIFA recognition.
The true character of any person who cannot compete within their own category in life, then decides to beat up on the younger smaller person is a true coward. This is the level our society has sunk to...
She shouldn’t miss out. You’re a great grandparent for standing up for her and all female athletes. Will/Lia Thomas is not alone, this is happening at all levels of sports all over the country and as a woman, I’m enraged about it. We have to stop this nonsense, it’s destroying the safety, fairness and dignity of female athletics.
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” Thank you for speaking out while so many are shrinking back to accommodate this insanity.
Thank you Riley Gaines. You're an awesome young woman. God bless you and your parents. I'm so grateful for you. I share your outrage. More people need to speak out against this.
Well said. Brave woman speaking out. My daughtrts are young. I hope the madness stops before they get to that level. I totally understand her dad's view on it
Its called voting democrat by paper ballot & "moving" to swing states with largest electoral votes (funding by soros for this & anfifa). How did it happen? Everyone knows.
Sadly, I don't think enough women will stand up. Women like to treat other women like shit but when it comes to men dressed as women, they seem to fall at their feet and kiss the ground they walk on, praising/worshipping them. It's sickening. So thank you for speaking up, please don't stop.
Isn't that bizarre that women do that? The Drag Shows for small children and Drag Queens reading books and talking to small children about any sexual anything Is Way Over The Line. But you see Mom's sitting with their children in these Drag Queen shows clapping and participating in something that should be Adult Only Entertainment.
These colleges and universities need to be exposed for their disgusting practices and held accountable for 'threatening' these young women into silencing how they feel!
Thank you! I am a woman who played softball with girls when I was young, racquetball with women as I got older....now I'm a Mother and Grandmother. Thank you! I want all girls and women to continue to have these opportunities.
I absolutely love the passion with which you all spoke on this topic. It’s refreshing hearing people speak with true conviction and standing for their values which are grounded in truth. It stands in stark contrast to the wishy washy language, mental gymnastics and obfuscation on the other side of this debate.
There is a woman named Kelli Jay Keen, aka Posie Parker who is traveling to many different countries speaking up for woman's rights that are being taking away because of transvestites. She has traveled the US.She was attacked by a mob in New Zealand but she's still holding rallies.
I am not a sports person. I never played sports. I wanted to be on the swim team but I didn't have access to it. But I remember changing in the locker room just for pe (and not having to get butt naked) and the terror that caused. I also know how terrifying it is to be a woman in a world where we are so easily taken advantage of by men who have decided that they can take what they want from you. I am so angry that this has been allowed to happen and so grateful for those who are standing up. I feel so saddened and sickened by the way that our country is going. Our culture is believing some of the worst lies and it is damaging everyone. Thank you for this interview. I came to your show just for the interview and to hear what is going on. I'm grateful that Riley Gaines is standing up and speaking up.
I am a 63 year old woman and a golfer, if transgender males were allowed to compete with us they would win! Males have more power in their swing and can hit the long ball! I would have a huge problem with that! I have played in many tournaments and have won the long drive contest for women as well as closest to the pin! If a man was competing against me I guarantee he would win! I am so tired of having to fight this issue. I am not homophobic nor transphobic! If I saw some dude changing in the women’s locker room, we would have a problem! I know my boyfriend, brother, nephews would back me up! And probably want to like you said have a beat down! Violence is not an answer, so let’s spare the transgender community injury’s!
Thank you for bringing back sense that used to be called common!!! Thank you all @ Crain & Co for standing with Ms. Gaines and allowing her voice to be heard!!! We are with you Ms. Gaines!!! You are so brave and deserving!!! What a relief to finally hear all the BS thrown out and some REAL TALK to exist again.
I spoke out about this on social media in 2021. My comments were used on a board of Ed post to label me a homophobe and a bigot. I don’t have daughters…I hope every “social justice clowns” daughter suffers the consequences of this bullshit.
We have lived with homosexuals for centuries. They were a rare breed that kept to themselves, and were able to socialize in their own places, and live amongst society, and work without much discrimination. We have bigots in all societies, that won't be out Lawed out of existence. We all have the same rights but society have certain rules for males and certain rules for women, social rules. Transgenders need to raise money for their own spaces and sports. The rest of society must give up our Rights and Bend to your new social order, Naw I don't think so. Transgenders must find your own spaces in this society, Not taking Over Our Spaces. It appears your numbers are growing therefore, start making public spaces safe for your genders and separate from the majority normal social order spaces. We will not agree that transwomen can share the same spaces as biological women. No Unisex Locker rooms.
@@cathy1523 The thing is this is a big social engineering project. The monied elite are pushing this agenda, and WANT this mess. That's the deal. We all have to keep fighting against it. A lot of women are speaking out, but the media doesn't cover that. The MSM was bought off a long time ago. "Trangenderism to Transhumanism" by Trans billionaire Martine Rothblatt is one promoting this garbage. Many others too. Stop the Madness!
I have 3 daughters and currently 2 granddaughters.. I would not allow boys in the locker rooms my daughters were in, and there's no way I'd allow boys changing with my granddaughters. That's sickening.
There should be a mass walkout and a demand for a full refund if that man turn up to compere with real female swimmers. That should put a stop to that foolishness.
Riley isn't the only one who talks about this discrimination against women in sports competition , Bethany Hamilton also to denounce in the context of surfing, the inclusion of transgender, what she has reaped is rains of insults from the LGBT lobby, unfairly treating her as transphobic or homophobic , while she just defends the unfair side and the cause of women, confronted without any consultation with the phenomenon. Once again women are mistreated and have no right to speak and if they does as these brave athletes, they are suspected of the worst.
I didn't know that But it's the big names coming in and be battered and no one dors anything. It feels there should be a 2 options, gender people must compete each other and normal ladies stay in their competitions.
@@mauded2709 The thing is this is a social engineering project promoted by monied elite that WANT this. They don't care! "Transgenderism to Transhumanism" is a real agenda. A lot of women are speaking out. People ARE joining forces. The MSM was bought off a long time ago, so the insults will continue. Just keep speaking up, and fight, or support the fighters. Stop the Madness!
This is bigger than being liked or hurting someones feelings. We need to keep everyone safe. And I agree, this is so important for everyone to stand together. I hope everyone educates themselves and this gets fixed.
So he was a bad swimmer amongst men, and he is also unable to win against a wonderful woman, where does he find any pride in such behaviours??? Such an exemple for humanity!
I can't believe the sports commission actually is letting this guy in the same locker room with women.. it's outrageous he's allowed to compete, but then again, let him shower in the same locker room is women. I was always under the impression that was against the law.
If we were watching this 10 years ago, even 5, we'd think we were watching a satire show. The fact it's even a conversation at all is a mockery of all logic, reason and common sense. If Thomas had a conscience, she should have handed that trophy to Riley. Use your voice, don't believe you can be cancelled!
Whatever happened to the law that men are not allowed in women's bathrooms? Was that Law erased from the books? Why wasn't he arrested for indecent exposure?
Thank you for this !! And something I thought about, we have places like the YMCA where the women’s locker rooms are full of little girls of all ages !!
Also I don’t usually watch your show, but I do watch Brett Cooper an fell asleep listening to her only to wake up to y’all. May have gained a new fan 😁
They need to make public the sponsors that are backing this movement of men competing against women so we can boycott them. They need to see what happened to Budweiser. Everything needs to be made public.
You can see how Riley has been raised and prepared for this role for years. She had to be the best otherwise she could be seen as having sour grapes. She's elequent, beautiful and clever She tied with this man how crazy is that? She is now perfect for this role. Now I think what she needs is a following to protect her from the crazies when she speaks. Police are useless wimps. Best wishes Riley.
You guys are great. I am so glad we are starting a movement to stop this foolishness. Anyone in favor of this should not be in politics, hold a job and should be shunned. It is going to get dangerous for these freaks.
I am not at all into sports, but this topic is a real flash point for me... I am outraged by what Lia Thomas has gotten by with. He is a deviant who is capitalizing on this divisive issue. A dishonest grifter, if you ask me and YES, I think it has to be women who need to galvanize against this. I fear the genie is already out of the bottle however...
Thank you for standing up for female athletes rights. You are NOT saying that you are unsupportive of the transgendered community. The point is biological males have no place in women’s charts. Riley is freakin awesome for swimming as fast as a 6’4” biological male swimmer. Check a VO2max chart and male/female records. The right thing to do is clear.
Thank you for standing up for women's sports! There is a reason why men and women compete on different levels, BECAUSE THEY ARE DIFFERENT! Stealing opportunities from women is shameful!
I am a lesbian feminist and we have stood for womens right. Transitioning men asserting entitlement over womens place, colonising our identity. This has been an issue for over 20 years. So you are now involved. We have wanted men to back women's rights to exist with respect and sovereignty of body.
You go Riley! I am a women, mother and wife. As someone not from the US but an allied country China are literally sitting laughing and waiting for the perfect time to strike. We should be focusing of this not men playing dress up.
What a brave and beautiful woman, she is putting her own life on hold to speak on and help this situation by sharing her story. The NCAA is guilty of abuse. Who died and made them King! They didn't even ask anyone and just decided it was okay to let Men compete with women. The entire top office needs to be escorted out to the parking lot and fired. This is freaking outrageous and makes nearly everyone furious. She has sacrificed her entire youth to become the best FEMALE swimmer in the country and she is... but the NCAA gave the trophy to a got Damn man got dammit!!!! Then they threaten those who speak up with black balling in the future they are trying to pursue. This Damn Shiite is criminal and the NCAA management that made this happen needs to be fired YESTERDAY!!
ive said it in a few other comments but this is the end of women world records if a man who is shit in his area can dominate women areas and we are suppose to clap... your right this is cheating in and out
