Riley Gaines sounds off on Brittney Griner, Megan Rapinoe advocating for 'male inclusion in women’s sports'

Former NCAA swimmer and IWF spokeswoman Riley Gaines sounds off after an 18-year-old transgender student exposed male genitalia to 14-year-old girls at school and rips Lia Thomas for 'gaslighting' critics. Fox News' Garrett Tenney reports.

Riley Gaines has been among those who have been fighting to keep women’s sports fair and equal, and on Monday, she had words for those who want to make the space more inclusive.

Gaines appeared on "The Michele Tafoya Podcast" and talked about the female athletes who have come out in favor of transgender women competing against biological females in sports. The former NCAA swim star at Kentucky has been outspoken about the issue since Lia Thomas emerged as a champion during the 2021-22 season.

Brittney Griner was the latest star athlete to support transgender participation in sports. The Phoenix Mercury center called it "a crime honestly to separate someone for any reason." Megan Rapinoe was among the current and former athletes who signed a letter to voice their opposition to the Protection of Girls and Women in Sports Act.

"It just blows my mind you have people like Brittney Griner, you have someone like Megan Rapinoe and those 37 other athletes that signed on, you have someone like Billie Jean King who was once a crusader for women’s sports. We really have Billie Jean King to credit for Title IX. And these women are now coming out, and, of course, they’re either done playing or at the end of their career. And of course, none of these three ladies I mentioned, they don’t have daughters to defend," Gaines told Tafoya.
