Simone Biles-Riley Gaines Feud Sparks Stephen A Smith Reaction

The personality of the ESPN, Stephen A. Smith, was largely agree with Riley Gaines in the middle of the former NCAA All-American Feud swimmer with the Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles.

Smith’s remarks took place on Monday a few days after the launch of biles in a personal attack on sheaths after the former Kentucky Wildcats star criticized a minnesota softball league for having extinguished comments on a photo showing a state championship team that had a transgender player on his list.

Gaines used Larry Nassar, the former disgraced doctor who sexually assaulted several Olympic gymnasts, to advance his point on men in female spaces. Although Smith does not agree with the sheaths using Nassar, he agreed with the original premise.

“That said, the points you have raised to Simone Biles outside the commentary by Larry Nassar, who should give us all the causes of break,” he said on “The Stephen A. Smith Show”. “The reality is that it is a bad service for women in the eyes of many people, that men who pass to women can participate in female sports. Lia Thomas was a perfect example. His highest classification at the time … The highest ranking as a male participant was like the 554th in the world. He transformed being a woman and was the Top 10.

“And the reality is there’s an abunance of women out there Who has a right to feel the way riley gaines feels, Simone Biles. Now where’s right for me or someone else to say it is a different argument. But in the age that we live in with title IX in existence Protective of Fairness and Equal Rights and Equal Opportunity to Women to then Piggyback Off of That and Following Up On That Years Later to Allow Transgender Athletes Transitioning from Male to Female to Compete Against women do not seem to be fair.

Smith rejected any idea that the debate on transgender athletes in the sports of girls and women was more than a competition on the ground.

“When we rely on this argument on fear, fear-wait a minute. Someone does not talk about your civil freedoms, someone does not speak of equality, someone does not speak of these things allowing you to live and let live,” he said. “They talk about competition in sport. And if you allow someone to participate in swimming, this will not prevent you from participating in boxing. This will not allow you to prevent you from participating in other sports.”

Smith spoke of the speech around Ronda Rousey by facing Floyd Mayweather Jr. in a fight when the two athletes talked about the world of sport. He said that if sports fans now know what would happen in the fight after Rousey lost against Amanda Nunes, that shouldn’t have been in the minds of a fan in the first place.

“We know that in most cases, even if there are women who could beat some men, overall, elite women do not deserve to compete with elite men,” he said. “By merit … I speak according to their sex. You should not compete with men. I don’t want to see a Clarissa Shields in a boxing ring against Terence Crawford.

“So when we talk about this premise – it’s something for the ladies, look at someone like me and say:” Who are you? “This is another thing entirely that the ladies look at the ladies, acting as ladies do not have the right to feel as if there is a drawback for them if they come up against a man who passes to a woman.”

Smith continued by saying that he hoped that more men went to women so that sports leagues have a transgender category to make it fair. However, World Aquatics attempted to have an open category in 2022 and was not interested in competition.

“If you ask me for my preference? I hope that a whole bunch of men passing towards women come out of the woodwork. So that we can have men against men, women against women and transgeneurs facing transgeneurs. That’s right,” he said. “But what Riley Gaines speaks, seems a little unfair, she has the right to express these thoughts without Simone Biles coming to her in this way. Just because she has lost? She speaks of an unfair advantage.

“And there is nobody who could really challenge – if you are a man who passes to a woman, there is an unfair advantage. I do not see women going to men trying to participate in sports for men. If that happened, and I missed it, I apologize. But I missed it, I have not seen it.”
