ESPN personality Stephen A. Smith largely agreed with Riley Gaines in the middle of the former NCAA All-American Swimmer’s feud with Olympic gold medal Simone Biles.

Smith’s remarks on Monday came a few days after Biles launched in a personal attack on Gaines after the former Kentucky Wildcats -Star criticized a Minnesota Softball League for coming comments on a photo showing a State Championship team that had a transgender player on his list.

Gaines used Larry Nassar, the disgraceful former Doctor, who sexually assaulted several Olympic gymnasts, to promote her point that men were in women’s space. While Smith did not agree with Gaines with the help of Nassar, he agreed with the original prerequisite.

“With that said, the points you made to Simone Biles outside the Larry Nassar comment, it should give us all the reason,” he said at “The Stephen A. Smith Show.” “The reality is that it is a bear service for women in many people’s eyes that men who change to women get competition in women’s sports. Lia Thomas was a perfect example. Her highest location at the time … highest ranking as a male participant was like 554. In the world. He passed to be a woman and was top 10.

“Og virkeligheden er, at der er en overflod af kvinder derude, der har ret til at føle, som Riley Gaines føler, Simone Biles. Nu om det er rigtigt for mig eller en anden at sige, at det er et andet argument. Men i den alder, vi lever med med titel IX i eksistensen, med os at være beskyttende over for retfærdighed og lige rettigheder og lige muligheder for at kvinder til daværende piggy tilbage af det og efterfølgende efter året senere til at give overtrædelse af ATTERING HAVE ARRIVING ATTENTION OF HAVE ARRIVING MANDINGS TO HAVE ARRIVING MANDINGS TO HAVE ARRIVING MAIR TO HAVE ARRIVING MAIGHTS TO HAVE ARRIVING MANDINGS TO ARRIVED After male to violate after malting from Maltes of malting of meals of meals to meal to malt to madly

Smith rejected every view that the debate on transient athletes in girls and women’s sports was more than just competition on the field.

“When we lean on this argument of fear, fear – wait a moment. Someone is not talking about your bourgeois freedoms, someone is not talking about equality, anyone is not talking about the things that allow you to live and let live,” he said. “They talk about competition in sports. And if you allow someone to compete in swimming, it doesn’t prevent you from competing in boxing. It won’t allow you to prevent you from competing in other sports.”

Smith brought up the conversation around Ronda Rusey, who took on Floyd Mayweather Jr. In a match when both athletes were the lecture on the sports world. He said that while sports fans now know what would happen in the fight after Rusey lost against Amanda Nunes, it shouldn’t have been in the mind of any fan in the first place.

“We know that in most cases, though there are women who could beat some men out there, elite women do not deserve to compete against the elite,” he said. “By deserving … I’m talking about based on their gender. You shouldn’t compete against men. I don’t want to see a Clarissa shield in a boxing against Terence Crawford.

“So when we talk about it from this prerequisite – is it a thing for ladies looking at someone like me and saying, ‘Who are you?’ It is another thing that is all for ladies to look at ladies, behave like ladies do not have the right to feel that there is a disadvantage for them if they go up against a male who switches to female.

Smith continued to say that he hoped that more men passed on to women for sporting leagues to have a transgender category to make it fair. However, the world’s aquatic tried to have an open category in 2022 and received no interest in the competition.

“If you ask me for my preference? I hope a whole bunch of men changing to women will come out of the woodwork. So we can make men go up against men, women who go up against women and transgenders who go up towards transgenders. It’s fair,” he said. “But what Riley Gaines is talking about seems a little unfair, she has the right to express these thoughts without Simone Biles coming to her that way. Just because she lost? She is talking about an unreasonable advantage.

“And there is no one who can really contest – if you are a male who switches to female, that there is an unreasonable advantage. I do not see that women change to men trying to compete in men’s sports. If it has happened and I missed it, I apologize. But I missed it, I have not seen it.”
