Absolutely blows my mind that we even have to have this conversation.
It’s beyond shameful. These people who support this assault on women and their right to safety and privacy should be prosecuted !
This is the most absurd debate I’ve ever seen.
May God bless Riley on her journey and give her the strength and courage to continue on.
All women must stand their ground on this and don’t let up or be bullied into silence.

Kudos to you Riley! Don't ever stop fighting for rights!! ❤

[minkiuna]

You go girl. This woke world MUST recover before it is all lost.

[rudy-sk]

You go, Riley.
Riley is a true, strong woman and brave enough to tell people what is really going on.

The officials that approved this are the ones who carry the shame. The MAN who stole the award lives thru his shame every time he looks in the mirror.

[CrayLuv]

Bless her heart. I hope she is able to make the changes that need to be made.

Why is a NAKED man in a women’s locker room NOT INDECENT EXPOSURE?

[batmanforpresident]

Imagine being a young girl and training countless hours to become the best at your sport only to one day have a biological male come along and smash all yoir dreams to

[jaehncn]

She did not lose to lia thomas, they tied. She was forced to give the trophy to him. Lia thomas, a male swimmer cannot even beat her even with some many biological advantages. You Go Girl!

[davideastman]

She probably is upset talking about having to compete against, dress in front of, and have your hard work and trophy stolen by some mentally unbalanced dude.

[maxbang]

Long live the amazing guts of biological female athletes past, present and FUTURE! Good for Riley!

[stanpotter]

In a huge bit of irony, Riley has more balls than most men. Good on her for fighting back!

[jam]

I never thought I would see the day where a student would have to stand for her rights in this way.

[jscho]

She is such an extraordinary young woman. She's smart, quick witted, well spoken, and so brave. Keep fighting, Riley. ❤

Good for HER!!! Stand up for REAL women!!!

[ugetridofit]

If Lia Thomas grew up when i was born he would have had his legs broken long ago. America is weak.

[tokyodirect]

We hope lawmakers support Riley Gaines. They should revoke the award from WILL Thomas and give Riley an apology.

[connorgoss]

Riley Gaines is what true feminism is.

[ChosenDV]

I stand at the door when my wife goes in a public women’s restroom especially with my daughters even though they are 1y 8m and 3 months of age. This is extremely sad and sick our women of our world have to go through this every day!!!

Even if Lea Thomas cuts it off he is still a man. Nothing will ever change that.
